Replacing old, dingy carpets will make your business look cleaner and larger, leaving a pleasant first impression with customers. You can also choose new carpets in energizing, focus-boosting colors to increase office productivity. To ensure you pick suitable options that will last for many years, consider the factors below.

Points to Think About When Choosing Business Carpets

1. Installation Location

To prevent premature wear, consider where to install new carpets. When it rains, people can track water and mud through the building. This could lead to moisture buildup and mold growth, so choose water-resistant fibers for entrances. The carpeting should also be easy to clean, preventing the accumulation of road salt, dirt, and other residue.

2. Level of Foot Traffic

Walking over surfaces can gradually break down carpeting and its padding. The density of fibers, or pile, should be suited for the level of foot traffic you expect. Carpet with lower pile density is ideal for areas with moderate foot traffic, while flooring with greater density is thicker and won’t wear easily in frequented spaces.

3. Workplace Atmosphere

If you work in a creative industry, for example, consider vibrant colors or bold patterns to evoke a fun, casual atmosphere. Have carpet tiles cut into various shapes to add whimsy to the flooring in daycare centers, or stick with neutral tones for corporate environments.
