High Traffic Flooring Options

Convention Centers

Carpet tile is an excellent choice as it provides heat insulation, energy savings, safer, non-slip environments, sound-absorption, fire retardation, and a nice soft touch. It stands up to heavy foot traffic, as well as the moving of equipment. Broadloom and Axminsters carpet deliver a timeless, luxurious, look that aligns with your image.

Casinos

Wool-blend broadloom carpet is a winner with casinos. In addition to its practical qualities, it is available in a wide range of colors and styles to suit the unique environment you need to create. Tile, laminate, luxury vinyl tile, sheet vinyl, and hardwood are also great options.

Terrazzo Tiles: Durable Flooring for High-Traffic Areas

Airports

Carpet! It is an exceptionally high traffic flooring option. But some airports are utilizing other surfaces. Denmark’s Copenhagen Airport, for example, completed a hardwood installation in their terminal, food courts, shopping areas, and passenger waiting areas. It truly gives this airport a unique look and feel. Tile, laminate, sheet vinyl, and luxury vinyl tile are other possibilities.

Theaters

Heavy foot traffic and the need for sound absorption? This is why carpet is such a popular choice for theaters, both commercial and residential.

Cruise Ships

Here, too, carpet plays a starring role in alleyways, restaurants, onboard casinos, children’s play areas, spas, and staterooms. Other areas of the ship may feature hardwood, tile, sheet vinyl, and/or laminate.

Stadiums

High traffic flooring solutions are a must for these popular, massive spaces. Porcelain, granite, ceramic, and terrazzo can all be used with stunning effects, as can carpet. Because there are so many types of needs (from plush VIP boxes and bars to restrooms and concession areas), utilizing a mixture of surfaces is key.

Gyms

More fitness centers are removing the carpet and installing rubber flooring for its resilience and comfort. Carpet tile, though, plays a role in locker rooms, offices, and children’s play areas. For sections like the Yoga/Pilates room, bamboo is a sustainable - and soothing - choice.
