The Park is a commercial carpet collection designed to redefine boundaries, enhance our mood and open our minds; a renewal of space and spirit. We are inspired by the parallels of how we move, gather and connect within different zones of a park and how they correlate to commercial interiors.

  • Creating spaces to gather thoughts or gather together, the Park consists of a combination of 23 x 91cm and 46 x 91 cm carpet tile formats. Varying degrees of pattern, texture and colour allow you to design a range of spaces from communal to private. Warm and cool tones with vivid colour options reflect renewal and vitality. Careful design allows a mixture of dye lots that provides simplified project management and selective replacement.

  • LokDots is a pressure sensitive adhesive method for the installation of EcoWorx carpet tile. This odorless system provides an alternative to wet adhesive, virtually eliminating the issue of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), and providing ease and versatility of installation and a reposition-able option. Lokdots also allows installation of tiles over cement floors with relative humidity that is too high for liquid adhesive methods - providing project time savings for builders. This also making it easy to remove and recycle used carpet, saving valuable time and money on landfill fees. This combination makes The Park good value for money and provides excellent lifetime ownership benefits

  • Six concepts derived from Park visuals in 53 coordinating colour ways, offer the designer a wide palette of options for layout and visuals. Linger tile offers a moment of calm on the floor. Drift tile is a near-solid indulgent bark texture, and Renew tile captures the reflective visual of water. Explore tile adds texture in a large-scale stone aesthetic. Like public art, Create tile is reminiscent of horizontal brush strokes with vivid colour. Shadows reveal light in Reflect tile, an abstract vista of sky seen through trees, and Zone tile is a playful surprise of turf texture.

  • This collection features refined loop textures and plush finishes made using advanced Colorpoint tufting technology. Combined with Shaw's 100% recyclable EcoWorx backing and premium Eco Solution Q nylon, the Park has superior durability, colour fastness , and recyclability. The Shaw Contract Group lifetime commercial warranty covers abrasive wear, tuft-bind, edge ravel and delamination. These elements result in 8x the tear strength, 5x the tensile strength and 2x the delamination strength of traditional bitumen and PVC tile backings.

    Going beyond Declare registration and Health Product Declarations, Cradle to Cradle Certification is the most comprehensive material health assessment. As a Cradle to Cradle Silver Certified product, our carpet has been assessed, and is continually being optimized to ensure it poses no known or suspected threat to humans or the environment. Shaw Contract Group products constructed with EcoWorx Carpet Tile and Eco Solution Q face fibre are registered through the Declare program and classified as “Red List Compliant.” The Health Product Declaration (HPD) enables manufacturers to present building product ingredients in a format that is consistent, transparent and in a common language consumers can understand.
