Tarkett is a leading supplier of a range of different flooring types and has been around since 1872, with its great experience and lengthy history seeing it develop a considerable portfolio of flooring products.
Now Tarkett Flooring is established as a leading brand and the company is particularly renowned as a maker of parquet flooring. It also produces items made from lino, vinyl wood and rubber, as well as very diverse items like astroturf for sports pitches.
Just as the company produces many different surfaces, its client base is also a wide one. Homes and sporting venues join schools, hospitals, shops, offices and other premises on the long list of customers that have been served by Tarkett over the years.
And as well as being an experienced floor maker, it is also an innovative one, developing new kinds of extra-hard lacquer – such as the Proteco Lacquer – to give its wooden flooring greater protection against wear and tear.
While it has a long history, the company has always been keen to keep up with the times and in recent years this has meant having a comprehensive environmental policy. Tarkett gained the Annual Environmental Diploma in 1994 and since then has received several accreditations concerning various aspects of its green credentials, including one to indicate that it is swan-friendly.
Tarkett engineered wood flooring products are made from oak and walnut. Although oak can come in darker shades, it is a lighter material in its natural state than walnut and this choice means that those looking for engineered wood flooring can enjoy choosing between different tones of colour and a number of natural patterns.
Oak is a highly popular wood and Tarkett oak engineered flooring offers a broad range of choice, with differing shades, plank widths and the option of two-strip flooring – with alternating staves in a pattern reminiscent of a brick wall – all among the options provided. Buyers can also select between flat-edged and bevelled edged planking, each of which provides a floor with a distinct style.
