Office Flooring is important in a multitude of ways. Flooring is one of the first things people notice when they first step into the office, making it the perfect opportunity to leave a valuable good first impression. The two most important things when deciding on office flooring materials are, design and practicability, a good balance of the two will help the productivity and the impression you make to outsiders. There are other factors to consider when deciding on your flooring material such as:

Traffic level
High-traffic areas such as the entrance usually require durable flooring materials in order to not get worn out. A good material to use for these areas would be laminate, vinyl or linoleum as these materials can be very durable and last for years.

Maintenance
Maintenance is key to keeping any floor in good condition. Not all flooring materials were created equal in the ease of maintenance such as carpet, which is easily worn down, stained and scuffed. Some of the easiest flooring materials to maintain are laminate and vinyl as they are both smooth and stain resistant while being easily cleaned as they don’t have fibres like carpet.

Budget
When choosing flooring for an office space one of the main factors in your decision is going to be money. Obviously the temptation is to go for the cheapest option, but this can lead to a few problems down the road as more times than not, the cheapest option isn’t the best quality. Probably the best material for price and quality is vinyl flooring as it is cheaper than most other options while retaining quality.

Design
The design of your commercial flooring is always a factor when deciding on which material to use. Sometimes certain materials just don’t look right with the surroundings, or materials like carpet tiles can look cheap and tacky. Luckily many flooring materials come in different colours and designs, giving you much more creativity with how you want your flooring. Linoleum, laminate and vinyl flooring all have fairly versatile designs.
