In one form or another, carpet has long been a mainstay of the commercial flooring industry. Originally manufactured from wool and natural fibers – modern commercial carpet is now made almost exclusively from synthetic materials which are highly stain resistant and 100% recyclable. Recycled content currently runs as high as 80% or more. Commercial carpeting allows end users to express themselves with almost total freedom of style, design and color. With its soft feel and high skid resistance, carpeted floors contribute to comfort and safety of almost any space. Carpeting also enhances any environment with excellent acoustical and insulation qualities. Carpets have been traditionally manufactured and installed as roll goods, however modular carpet ‘tiles’ are now approaching 50% the market. Carpet tiles are typically more durable, have upgraded backings and allow for less waste. Damaged areas can be repaired by simply removing and replacing a tile. Whether roll good or tiles, there is a carpet for almost every application and budget.
