Burmatex academy tiles Charcoal Grey 11802

Charcoal Grey Academy tiles deliver a low-profile grey that hides wear and soaks up traffic. Built from solution-dyed polypropylene and nylon with 5% recycled polyester, they sit on a recycled BioBase backing. The pile weighs 940g/m2, heavy enough for schools, colleges, universities and any contract space where footfall is relentless.

Bleach-clean these tiles without damaging colour or pile. Anti-fray and anti-ravel technology holds the edges firm through years of use. Colour fastness to light hits Grade 6 minimum, and Grade 4 to shampoo, so extraction cleaning won’t fade them. The tiles are castor-chair rated for continuous use, and they recover over 80% from static loading within 24 hours.
