Broadloom carpet is carpet woven on a very wide loom. Most commonly installed in 12-foot wide large rolls, it is made of wool, wool blend or nylon and specifically suited to offices, retail stores, training centres, showrooms and large open spaces. Its advantages are:

• Value for money – broadloom carpet is often sold by the metre (1m x 3.67m) while other products are sold in square metres (1m x 1m). So, you are getting approximately 3.5 times more carpet than the comparable square metre price.
• Design and flexibility – Broadloom carpet is available in a range of styles, colours and textures and can be used for unique design flexibility including visual cues and wayfinding, promoting the overall aesthetic of the office.
• Comfort – Carpet promotes a feeling of well-being while creating a sense of warmth.
• Ergonomics – Carpet provides underfoot comfort and can reduce standing and walking leg fatigue.
• Slip resistance – Unlike hard floor, carpet prevents the risk of slips and falls.
• Acoustics – The best in floor covering for acoustics, carpet reduces impact and reverberation noise.
• Thermal insulation – An exceptionally good insulating material, carpet can reduce energy costs in heating and cooling.
