Contributing to a better learning environment

Schools present some of the toughest environments for flooring. Meeting the sometimes contradictory needs for flooring that is safe, cost-effective, durable and resistant to stains and impact while contributing to a stimulating, less noisy learning environment is the kind of challenge at which Tarkett excels. Our experts have spent years talking with teachers, students and facility managers to understand these diverse needs and to design integrated solutions in response.

As our clients can testify, an ongoing learning process is the best guarantee of improvement.

 “Our school was developed to stimulate the imagination and be colorful, providing the very best conditions for both playing and learning. The Tapiflex and Acczent flooring ranges from Tarkett are a vital part of the interior design, providing possibilities for using colors and patterns to best effect. We set out to give the children in our facility an open and secure environment with acoustic and underfoot comfort.” Gaelle Van Zeveren, Architect (V+G architecten, Netherlands)

 “My 36 years of experience with Tandus Powerbond has been great. This product has a 25 year warranty for a reason. In the Tacoma School District, we have had this product in our classrooms for over 30 years without a problem.” Ken Price, Director of Building & Grounds, Tacoma School District (Washington, USA)
