Forbo Flooring Systems’ unique and comprehensive product portfolio has brought to life a striking new refurbishment project at LeasePlan UK, Berkshire, where a wide range of Forbo’s textile and resilient products have been specified as part of an exciting modular flooring solution.
“The objective of the project was to reflect the company’s corporate identity in the interior design of the building,” explains Mark Crick, Design Director of Crisp Designed Ltd, designers and installers on the project. “The overall workplace atmosphere was very important and the brief was to ensure the staff felt good about coming into the building”.
Mark continues: “It was very unusual for me to specify from one flooring supplier as there are so many varied manufacturers and products to choose from. However, the diverse range of products on offer and the sheer scope for integration and modular propositions was so attractive to us, we couldn’t look any further.”
The end result has seen over 5,000m2 of floor coverings specified from across Forbo’s Tessera carpet tile, Allura luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and Eternal project vinyl ranges. To complement the bright and bold furniture, a dark textured, subtly patterned base colour of charcoal and grey was specified, thus allowing a highlight feature colour to be incorporated into the design – achieved using the client’s corporate shade of orange.
“The end result is fantastic - a striking mixture of bright colours and eye-catching textures in a completely contemporary and modular fashion, which has definitely fulfilled the original vision,” comments Mark. “Installing so much product from one supplier meant the service and delivery from Forbo was key to fitting in to the demanding time schedule and we were very impressed with the ease of installation, reasonable price and professionalism from Forbo. Project changes that were driven by the client throughout the duration were achieved and met within the programmed timescales of each floor; all with the help of Forbo’s sales and technical teams, as well as their impressive delivery capabilities.”
