Burmatex academy sheet Storm Grey 11504

Burmatex Academy sheet in Storm Grey 11504 is a heavy contract carpet built for spaces where feet never stop moving. The colour itself is neutral and calm, a mid-tone grey that sits easy in hallways, breakout zones, offices and classrooms without fading or showing dirt fast.

The pile sits at 940g per square metre and is solution dyed, which locks colour into the fibre before weaving rather than adding dye after. That means no bleed, no shift. The backing is BioBase recycled material, certified as recycled under BS EN ISO 14021. The full fibre mix runs 80% polypropylene, 15% nylon and 5% recycled polyester. Anti-fray and anti-ravel technology means seams and edges hold without fraying or picking up loose threads over time.

Where it works

The Heavy Contract classification makes it fit for schools, colleges, universities, offices and any setting with sustained footfall. It passes castor chair tests for continuous rolling load in meeting rooms and open-plan zones. Its neutral tone and durable pile suit corridors, classrooms, reception areas and breakout spaces. Low light reflectance (LRV 8.99) means it won’t glare or bounce light, which works well in learning and working environments.

Looking after it

Vacuum and spot-clean as needed. Shampoo or extract-clean when soiling builds up. A+ VOC rating means low off-gassing. The carpet comes with a 15-year commercial warranty. When end of life arrives, Burmatex’s reco2very take-back service provides a no-landfill solution. The product is made using 100% certified renewable electricity and backed by third-party verified product-specific Environmental Product Declarations.
