There are several considerations when specifying flooring for commercial projects. To varying degrees – and depending on weather the job in question involves an office, a kindergarten, a public bar, or a hotel foyer – the floor chosen needs to be durable, easy to clean and safe.
Beyond functional requirements, commercial flooring should also look good. It should work with broader aesthetic themes, speak to various other architectural inclusions, elevate the ambience of a space and even reinforce brand identity.
In this context, in this session of CPD Live, we shine a light on specifying rugs and carpet for commercial applications. A practical and flexible choice for projects of this type, such products meet all the above-mentioned requirements and more.
Identifying the types of applications these products are best suited to, our speakers will talk through the key points in terms of texture and material selection, installation, design/colour choice, and more. They will outline all you need to know to include wall-to-wall rugs/carpeting in your next commercial project.

Beyond the noise surrounding its arrival – and the claims of everything from previously-unimaginable efficiency and prosperity on the one hand, to mass unemployment and dystopia on the other – there is no doubting that artificial intelligence is set to change the world.
