## Description

Burmatex Academy Purple Orchid 11577 is a heavy contract carpet sheet built for non-stop footfall. The deep purple tone sits well in corridors, learning spaces and lecture halls where you need colour that hides wear and holds its look.

The pile contains 80% polypropylene, 15% nylon and 5% recycled polyester, all solution-dyed at source for colour fastness and carbon reduction. Underneath sits a BioBase recycled backing, made from waste materials and certified to BS EN ISO 14021. Anti-fray and anti-ravel technology keeps the weave locked in place, stopping edge unravelling where foot traffic bunches up.

### Specifications

- Pile weight 940g/m2
- Thermal resistance (TOG) 0.55
- Light reflectance value (LRV) 3.72
- Flammability Euroclass Bfl-s1
- Castor chair rated for continuous use (BS EN 985)
- Colour fastness to light minimum grade 6 (BS EN ISO 105-B02)
- Colour fastness to shampoo minimum grade 4 (BS 1006)
- A+ VOC rating

### Where it works

Academy suits schools, colleges, universities and any commercial setting that takes hard wear. Think entrance halls, stairwells, seminar rooms and corridors. The heavy contract classification holds up to the footfall and load that light domestic carpet cannot.

### Installation and care

Sheet carpet rolls straight to subfloor or existing surfaces. Static loading recovers above 80% in 24 hours, so furniture marks don't set. Clean with approved carpet shampoo and vacuum regularly. Burmatex backs the range with a 15-year commercial warranty.

Made using 100% certified renewable electricity and supported by third-party verified product environmental declarations, Academy cuts carbon without cutting performance. The reco2very take-back service means old carpet goes to recovery, not landfill.
