Water Resistance Just Got Better: The Ultra Compact Core provides a significant boost in water resistance, with a remarkable 5 % swell rate after 24 hours of total immersion. This makes it perfect for moisture-prone areas.

Ultra-Large Planks for a Sleek Look: The ultra-large planks, with an average density of more than 950kg / m ³, give you a smooth, uninterrupted look across large areas up to 400m 2. Say goodbye to transition strips and enjoy a seamless design flow.

NEW CARPET TILE COLLECTIONS FROM INTERFACE
Interface recently launched two new carpet tile collections, Material Impressions and Open Road. These collections expand the company’ s i2 portfolio and mark 25 years since it introduced this innovative design approach, a first in the flooring industry.
Inspired by how nature would design a floor, Interface’ s i2 portfolio features nearly 50 carpet tile styles that prioritise similarity over uniformity. These styles offer maximum flexibility for commercial spaces as they are made to blend
Material Impressions effortlessly, rather than match exactly. This randomness in design eliminates matching dye lot concerns, making it easy to replace tiles regardless of when they are purchased or installed. The result is an adaptable, high-performance, and eye-catching choice for workplaces, education spaces, and more.
Material Impressions From angular and bold geometries to diffused and speckled patterning, Material Impressions explores scale and function to create a unique floor every time. Inspired by the resurgence in ombre detailing and subtle color gradation across materials, the carpet tile collection offers three cohesive, yet distinct, styles made to work together or apart. Embracing the i2 design approach, the collection’ s subtle variations in color and pattern offer endless modular design flexibility to meet the needs of today’ s commercial spaces.
Open Road Made to be adaptable and mergeable, this carpet tile collection provides
Open Road
infinite design possibilities. As part of Interface’ s Open Collective, it joins a toolkit of carpet tile solutions that are made to deliver style and performance with every installation. Its styles create movement across the floor, reflecting the randomness of nature.
The collection explores i2 from two distinct perspectives: an organic style that captures the dynamic look of granite seams, and a geometric style that blends contrast and texture to create a unique floorscape. www. interface. com
