CIRCULATION & DISTRIBUTION Welcome to the February issue of Tomorrow’s Contract Floors.
As we move into 2017 there is a growing feeling of change in the world with many ongoing uncertainties in terms of the economy and consumer confidence. However, according to our recent report from AMA Research growth in the UK floorcoverings market remained strong last year reaching £2billion.
Vinyl sales are still outperforming other sectors in the market with luxury vinyl tiles continuing to rise in poularity. So we bring you a brimming section on LVT where you can find some spectacular installations from Milliken, Amtico and Tarkett.
In our Healthcare section you can find a feature from Altro which explores the influences that climate and light has on design within healthcare settings. And Polyflor outlines the importance of considering dementia-friendly flooring within health and social care facilities.
Elsewhere in the issue we have a packed section on Industrial Flooring with advice from Sika, Flowcrete and The Preparation Group.
I hope you enjoy reading!
