Commercial floors take more traffic, more rolling loads and more cleaning than any home floor. The right choice depends on the space, the maintenance plan and the budget.

Carpet tile

The standard for offices. Tiles are easy to replace one at a time, hide wear, and cut noise. Look for solution-dyed nylon and a strong backing. We carry carpet tile from Tarkett, Shaw Contract, Mohawk Group, Milliken, Pentz and Aladdin Commercial.

LVT (luxury vinyl tile)

Wood or stone looks with easy cleaning. Glue-down (dryback) LVT is preferred for heavy rolling loads. Use a 20 mil wear layer or more in commercial spaces. Forbo Allura, Tarkett, Shaw Contract and Mohawk Group all make strong options.

VCT (vinyl composition tile)

The lowest-cost hard floor for schools, stockrooms and grocery stores. It needs regular waxing and buffing, so factor in maintenance.

Sheet vinyl

Seams are heat-welded, so liquids can't get through. That's why hospitals, labs and clinics use it. Homogeneous sheet vinyl wears evenly for decades.

Linoleum (Marmoleum)

Made from natural materials such as linseed oil, wood flour and jute. Forbo Marmoleum is a top pick for schools and healthcare that want a sustainable floor.

Entrance matting

Most dirt comes in through the front door. A walk-off system such as Forbo Coral or Nuway at entrances protects every floor behind it.
