ANTRON UNDERLINES ITS WORTH AT


A ROARING START FOR 2019 FROM THE ACADEMY FOR


EXCELLENCE With 141 installation courses booked and 85 customer training days already delivered, the Academy is certainly starting off the year with a packed diary and its relationship with Carpetright only looks set to continue this success. The partnership means that installers working for the company can attend wood, laminate and LVT courses at the Academy, rather than the in-house training programmes offered by the national retailer, so using the centre to further improve their skill base.


Lee Thompson, procurement and technical manager, Academy for Excellence in Flooring, said: “Our partnership with Carpetright gives installers a unique opportunity to develop their installation expertise through our training programmes, while meeting their obligations for the retailer. This means that they can give extra value to the services they offer and provide a reassuring level of expertise for any work carried out for company. It’s a win-win for Carpetright and the Academy alike, as well as the wider retail fitting industry, raising standards and creating expertise that can be applied to any wood, laminate or LVT work.”

WORKPLACE HOUSE Founded by Christy Carpets and Swedish office furniture brand, Kinnarps, in conjunction with a handful of carefully selected partners, Workplace House provides a place of inspiration and advice for designers involved in modern work spaces. The collaborative showroom is in the heart of London’s Clerkenwell district, home to the city’s thriving architecture and design community. Demonstrating how flooring, furniture, fixtures and technology can work in harmony, the showroom uses its three floors to present concepts in modern working.


Carpet tiles made with Antron Lumena carpet fibre welcome visitors to The Workplace House in the street-level reception and coffee bar. Chosen in pastel shades, Stressed Out (Hyper & Weary) and Relax (Soothed & Sublime) designs by Christy Carpets combine to demonstrate how flooring texture can work together to add interest. With the stain-resistance and soil- hiding capability of hardwearing Antron Lumena carpet fibre, these designs will also prove that the careful specification of fibre type ensures that carpet can withstand the demands of these intensive areas.


“Receptions and bar areas are two of the toughest areas for any floor, so the use of carpet tiles made with Antron Lumena carpet fibre is testament to the confidence of Christy Carpets that Antron carpet fibre will not let it down


The Academy’s Master Installer programme still remains at the heart of its operation, and fully-booked until July of this year, it’s clear that its effects are being felt by a growing number of installers across the country. Covering a mix of knowledge and practical installation skills, the pass or fail course is conducted by Quick-Step endorsed trainers in the Academy’s recently refurbished training facility. This ensures


by staining and showing early signs of wear,” comments Stephan Hanke, INVISTA Antron carpet fibre. “I cannot think of a better testament to the performance of Antron Lumena carpet fibre than in Christy Carpets’ very own showroom, particularly in the pastel colours selected.”


The use of Antron Lumena carpet fibre can be found throughout the showroom, featuring in Stressed Out Wound Up in the basement seminar room and in two colours of Straight and Narrow (Dark Side & Grace), used within the series of showcase rooms on the top floor. Providing workspaces with a carpet fibre designed to cope in busy commercial environments, Antron Lumena carpet fibre offers outstanding soil resistance and enduring colour.

its notably high standards are maintained and that all qualified Master Installers can provide a Quick-Step supported lifetime workmanship warranty on wood and laminate, or LVT installations.


The Quick-Step Academy for Excellence in Flooring has just two Master Installer spaces left in June and July courses, with the programme running again in September after the summer break.
