FOCUS ON LVT
Amtico’s collections offer all three, as well as being compatible with underfloor heating already in place. All of Amtico’s tiles come with an extra hardwearing surface with a protective wear layer as standard, ensuring whichever pattern your customer may choose; they are guaranteed a floor that will last.
Consumers want technology to improve their lives at home or work; this allows for individualism as opposed to prescribed style. Interiors are free to be personalised again, after a certain blandness in the nineties and noughties, this is seen through the rise of interest in pattern, and the passion people have in heritage styles such as the Décor collection.
We look at the influence of digital technology and the benefit this has on consumer lifestyles. We’ve put robotics and digital manufacturing into our factory to drive efficiency; we’ve digitised product development without sacrificing the detail and accuracy free-hand design always brings to surface design.
“Wit batroom flooring, you need a flooring tat provides practicality, durability and style.”
A Splash of Personality
The versatile qualities of LVT mean
that it can be used in many settings within a home. Here, LVT specialist Amtico explains why it is a great option for the bathroom.
Consumers are becoming far more adventurous in terms of what they want from their flooring options – asking for more unique patterns, colours, shapes and textures.
As designers and manufacturers, Amtico have responded to this – scouring the globe looking for truly unique designs that will transform people’s living spaces.
When it comes to a bathroom, updating the flooring could not be simpler. Thanks to luxury vinyl tiles (LVT), there is now a quick and easy way to create a practical yet stylish environment. With bathroom flooring, as is the case with any high-traffic area in the home, you need a flooring that provides practicality, durability and style.

Our design is rooted in traditional methods, but we embrace digital in order to evolve. We are interested in investigating the point at which the physical and digital meet: and how this affects aesthetics. Consumers are interested in how things feel to touch, so these haptic elements are an area of development for the team.
Flooring is underfoot, and at home we’re very often bare foot. We can digitally simulate textures and prototype products to test out their look and feel, to develop products that connect with people emotionally as well as on a practical level.
Amtico’s flooring also boasts water and stain resistant qualities, ensuring that, no matter how messy it gets in the bathroom, the floor can be wiped easily and will withstand the test of time. This is especially ideal for families with small children or for those who love hosting.
Alongside these physical attributes, the visual aspect of the flooring is also important to take into consideration. Whether a bathroom is more modern and simplistic or traditional in style, there are numerous laying patterns to suit every home. Amtico’s Signature range, for example, offers 163 products, comprised of 69 wood, 43 stone and 51 abstract designs. Creating a bespoke entertaining area has therefore never been easier.
Each tile is expertly crafted in the UK, creating quality products that last a lifetime. Balancing the aesthetic with the practical, Amtico’s LVT promises high-performance that will never fail to impress with quality and beauty.
