AS part of a growth plan, Paragon Carpet Tiles has recently invested in more equipment at their busy manufacturing site in Yorkshire. Carpet tiles are an
ever-growing popular choice for creating areas of interest and zoning, whilst also providing practical flooring solutions with impact noise reduction for building owners and tenants.
Carpet tiles allow architects to work with shapes, colours, textures, and comfort. Coupled with the ease of cleaning and replacing a single tile for maintenance, it’s clear to see why carpet tiles are used for various flooring applications.
The overall design can be adjusted to suit the building
Using carpet tiles to promote wayfinding, delineating break-out areas, or stimulating innovation, designers can integrate carpet tiles into their interior designs in a myriad of ways.
Flooring can assist with the zoning areas for collaborative open layouts as seen at Severnside House in Cardiff. Total contrast is a popular choice for its random lay effect and is often used next to bold colours to create striking designs.
Paragon tiles helped to eliminate subfloor preparation
For the revamp of CSCM IT Solutions new offices in Oldbury, the client wanted a smooth flow throughout the areas with distinctive walkways, leading to breakout spaces and the kitchen.
With durable properties and vibrant colourways, Strobe and Vital suited the project perfectly. The two product ranges were used together to create quirky, curved walkways, along with feature borders and inlays to the boardroom and director’s office.
Strobe carpet tiles were also used on the staircase to create constant flow from the stairway to the walkways and workspace areas.
Duera, part of Paragon Carpet Tiles’ Luxury Commercial Vinyl solutions, was also used to deliver a modern and unique look. With a 5mm height, the range can provide a seamless finish against most existing carpet tiles, allowing designers to create spaces that flow between soft and hard textures.
G Harding Flooring said: “Using all Paragon Carpet Tiles’ products not only simplified the buying process but allowed design elements to work alongside each other. We were able to eliminate additional subfloor preparation and the need for trims by selecting ranges with the matching thicknesses.”
Heavy contract flooring for vibrant student areas
In addition to using brand colours in the flooring design, colour choices can add warmth and vibrancy to an area. For example, the University of Exeter uses Strobe throughout their St Lukes Campus to maintain the vibrant, collegiate atmosphere. The Strobe range features ten vibrant colours to choose from, alongside a matching grey highlight colour.
This heavy contract flooring solution is 100% solution dyed yarn that is hardwearing and easy to clean, with impact noise reduction of 26db.
Pattern creation with modern equipment
Compared to traditional equipment that only allows one loop height, machines such as the infinity machine are programmed to produce specific patterns and structures. There are 810 ends, each one controlled by a Servo.
