NEW FLOORING SYSTEM
CONNECTS OFFICES
WITH WORLD OUTSIDE
Interface has launched Human
Connections, a flooring system
that embraces natural elements’
relationship with urban neighbour-
hoods. The Human Connections
collection consists of 8 designs that
bring humans in offices, shops, or
homes closer to ‘freedom’ in the
urban world or to nature. The eight
designs
combine
innovatively
to mimic city surfaces such as
green
moss-covered
pathways,
pavements with graffiti scribbling,
or nature-tinged red stones.
Human Connections’ 50cm x 50cm
carpet tiles are treated with stain
repellent
and
an
antimicrobial
solution. The new range demon-
strates Interface’s commitment to
sustainability as it is derived from
a 100% recycled, solution-dyed
yarn system with 56% recycled
content.
The
Interface’s
collection
TacTiles
uses
installation
system which eliminates the need
for glue and the possibilty of
inhaling hazardous vapours. The
TacTiles system produces a floor
that ‘floats’ to make tiles easy to
update and replace.
