Retail flooring has to look sharp, handle constant foot traffic, and clean up easily. Carpet tiles and vinyl each have a place — often in the same store.
When carpet tiles win
Carpet tiles add warmth, reduce noise, and let you zone areas with colour. They suit fitting rooms, quieter browsing areas, and premium displays.
When vinyl wins
Vinyl handles heavy trolleys, spills, and grit at entrances, and wipes clean quickly. It's ideal for high-traffic aisles and food-adjacent areas.
Combining both
- Vinyl in entries and main walkways
- Carpet tiles in display and fitting zones
- Slip-rated finishes wherever floors get wet
