Premium Office Flooring Solutions
Durable, Design-Led & Built for Commercial Workspaces
The right office flooring needs to do far more than look good. It has to cope with constant foot traffic, rolling chairs, changing layouts and day-to-day cleaning, while supporting the design intent of the wider workspace. Impervia flooring is designed for exactly these demands.
Why Does Flooring Matter in Offices?
Flooring plays an important role in how an office looks, feels and performs. From first impressions in reception areas to acoustic comfort, maintenance requirements and long-term durability, the specification needs to work across a range of different workplace environments.
Specification priorities for office flooring:
Built for High-Traffic Areas
Offices experience continuous movement throughout the working day. Entrances, reception areas, circulation routes, breakout spaces and shared work areas all require flooring that can withstand regular use without quickly showing signs of wear.
Impervia flooring is designed for demanding commercial environments, combining a heavy-duty surface with wood, stone and herringbone finishes suitable for contemporary office schemes.
Easy Maintenance, Long-Term Value
Carpet can require regular vacuuming, stain treatment and periodic deep cleaning, while natural wood and stone may need additional ongoing maintenance.
Impervia is waterproof, stain-resistant and straightforward to clean, helping reduce day-to-day maintenance requirements. Its rigid construction and replaceable plank format can also support longer-term lifecycle planning where individual areas become damaged.
Safer & Healthier for Employees
Flooring contributes to both workplace safety and indoor environmental quality. Impervia provides a low-slip surface alongside recognised indoor air quality credentials, including FloorScore® and GREENGUARD Gold certification.
Its integrated acoustic backing also helps reduce impact sound, making it well suited to open-plan offices, meeting areas and multi-storey commercial buildings.
How Is Impervia Built for High-Traffic Office Areas?
Offices experience continuous movement throughout the working day. Entrances, reception areas, circulation routes, breakout spaces and shared work areas all require flooring that can withstand regular use without quickly showing signs of wear.
Impervia’s commercial rigid core LVT is engineered with a heavy-duty wear surface, combining wood, stone and herringbone finishes suitable for contemporary office schemes. This robust construction helps resist everyday scuffs and wear across larger commercial floorplates.
Specification consideration: High-use areas such as entrances and circulation routes benefit most from Impervia’s heavy-duty wear layer, while quieter breakout or meeting spaces can prioritise finish and acoustic performance.
Sustainability & Compliance
Impervia flooring is built for long-term performance while supporting more considered material specification. It has been stringently tested against California emission standards, recognised as some of the most demanding requirements for indoor product emissions.
Made using recyclable materials and supported by recognised indoor air quality credentials, Impervia can contribute to healthier commercial interiors for employees and visitors. FloorScore® and GREENGUARD Gold certification provide additional reassurance when flooring is being assessed for commercial specifications.
Designed for durability, Impervia can also help reduce waste associated with frequent flooring replacement. Energy-efficient manufacturing and environmentally focused logistics partnerships form part of Impervia’s wider approach to reducing the environmental impact associated with commercial flooring.

How Does Impervia Compare With Traditional Office Flooring?
Choosing flooring for an office is a long-term specification decision. Here’s how Impervia compares with traditional commercial carpet across maintenance, durability, appearance, acoustics and everyday performance.
| Feature | Commercial Carpet | Impervia Flooring |
|---|---|---|
| Maintenance | Requires regular vacuuming, stain treatment and periodic deep cleaning. Spills can be difficult to remove completely. | Wipes clean easily, resists stains and requires minimal routine maintenance. |
| Durability | High-traffic areas can flatten, stain or show wear, particularly around entrances and circulation routes. | Engineered for demanding commercial use and backed by a 10-year commercial warranty. Individual planks can also be replaced where required. |
| Appearance | Offers a wide range of colours and textures but can show staining and wear over time. | Available in wood, stone and herringbone designs that provide the appearance of natural materials with lower maintenance requirements. |
| Noise Reduction | Naturally absorbs sound but can also retain dust, dirt and allergens. | Integrated acoustic backing helps reduce impact sound while providing a hard, easy-to-clean surface. |
| Practicality | Can be vulnerable to staining and may require more intensive cleaning in busy shared spaces. | Waterproof, stain-resistant and suited to entrances, breakout areas, kitchens and other busy office environments. |
How Does Impervia Support a Safer, Healthier Office?
Flooring contributes to both workplace safety and indoor environmental quality. In busy commercial environments, specifiers should consider slip performance and air quality credentials alongside appearance and durability.
Impervia provides a low-slip surface alongside recognised indoor air quality credentials, including FloorScore® and GREENGUARD Gold certification. This is particularly relevant to entrances and other locations where moisture may be brought into the building.
Specification guidance: Do not specify flooring on appearance alone. Always assess verified slip performance and air quality credentials against the intended office environment.

Open-plan environments require flooring that can withstand rolling chairs, regular foot traffic and changing furniture layouts, while also helping manage impact sound across busy workplaces.
Impervia’s rigid core LVT features an integrated IXPE acoustic backing, helping reduce impact sound while providing a hard, easy-to-clean surface. This makes it well suited to open-plan offices, meeting areas and multi-storey commercial buildings.
