From the series "Terraces, doormats, floors – trends 2023".
Flotex is a unique carpet and is different from other floor coverings. Flotex combines the advantages of a flexible, smooth flooring material with the warmth and comfort of carpeting. Flotex impresses with its aesthetic qualities — a wealth of colors and patterns that offer many interior design possibilities. The soft backing dampens footsteps, and the dense fibers do not collect dust and allergens. Flotex is the only carpet on the market that is completely washable and waterproof. Very high durability and stain resistance significantly extends the life cycle of the product and allows many years of use while maintaining aesthetic qualities.

Why Flotex and not ordinary carpeting
Flotex floor coverings contain 80 million straight, vertical nylon fibers per m². The nylon fibers are oriented vertically, ensuring that fine dust and allergens can be easily released when vacuuming. In fact, vacuuming removes twice as many allergens from Flotex flooring compared to standard carpeting. That's why Flotex is the only textile floor to be approved by the British Allergy Foundation. In addition, the vertical fibers of Flotex carpet completely dry in 4 to 6 hours after wet cleaning, as opposed to 24 hours for standard carpeting, dramatically reducing the time needed for maintenance, thereby reducing associated costs.

Flotex carpet design and colors
Flotex impresses with its colors, design and design possibilities thanks to its various formats, as it comes in rolls, tiles and panels. More than a dozen different collections, several hundred designs, created collections in cooperation with world-renowned artists, including Polish designer Przemysław Mac Stopa of Massive Design studio, as well as the possibility to digitally print individual designs on request — this is what this extraordinary new generation carpet offers.

Where we can use Flotex
Flotex is an ideal carpet for high traffic areas.
It will work great in places such as stores, chain stores and shopping malls, where not only functional properties count, but also aesthetic qualities. Today, shopping centers offer customers much more than shopping, combining elements of architecture, art, consumption and entertainment. Flotex carpet offers everything one would expect from a carpet in this type of establishment: easy care, durability and strength, rich colors and attractive designs. Likewise, it performs well in facilities such as airports, convention centers, courthouses and public administration buildings, as well as all kinds of intensively used public facilities.

Flotex will also perform well in extreme conditions
Because Flotex is a durable carpet, attractive in color and design, but also highly resistant to water and moisture, it is recommended for facilities such as sports centers, especially those associated with winter sports such as ski resorts and ice rinks. Flotex performs well in the most extreme conditions and remains slip-resistant even in wet areas. In addition, Flotex has good acoustic properties that provide a relaxing atmosphere.

Flotex for the office — why not
On Flotex carpet, the wheels of chairs move easily, which makes it successfully installed in offices. Durable and densely arranged fibers deformed by movement return to their original position without leaving traces of use on the floor. In addition, a wide range of Flotex tiles and panels, can be an excellent alternative to standard carpet tiles, which are installed on concrete floors or technical floors. A not inconsiderable advantage of Flotex panels are digitally printed patterns, which creates many possibilities for interior design of different character.
