While some designers are looking for a blank canvas that is durable, hardwearing and long-lasting to handle the heavy footfall, others are looking for a more unique look for an intimate environment, and LVT is ideal for both.
Our Moduleo Moods collection offers unrivalled flexibility and the opportunity to create just about any image or pattern within the flooring, thanks to the formats we have available.
WHAT IS THE AVERAGE REPLACEMENT CYCLE FOR A FLOOR IN THE RETAIL SECTOR?
The lifespan of a floor in the retail sector averages at around seven years – which is very much the norm when it comes to real wood or stone.
However, as LVT is much more durable and hardwearing, it is likely to last much longer. As such, we’re so confident that our flooring can stand the test of time, even within areas that experience such high levels of footfall, that all of our commercial products come with at least a ten-year guarantee.
AT WHAT POINT IN THE DESIGN PROCESS DO RETAILERS TEND TO SPECIFY THEIR FLOORING?
From previous experience, our retail clients usually specify their flooring very early on in the project – especially the type they’re going to go for.
The colour, however, is often selected at a later date, once the overall theme of the project has been decided on; and as we have such a large portfolio of products at Moduleo, there is something to suit just about any environment.
HOW CAN FLOORING ASSIST IN THE INTERIOR DESIGN OF RETAIL ENVIRONMENTS?
Flooring is often considered part of the fabric of the building and imperative in creating the right ambience.
Obviously, flooring is a commodity but in the retail sector it’s imperative that it works as a canvas for interior designers to build upon, and to ensure that the product on show always remains king.
