Burmatex academy tiles Dark Violet 11884

Burmatex Academy is a solution-dyed carpet tile in Dark Violet 11884, made for heavy-footfall spaces like schools, colleges and universities. The deep purple sits at LRV 2.78, reading dark and rich without showing wear marks or dirt easily. It’s bleach cleanable, so spill protocol is straightforward and your maintenance costs stay low.

This is a heavy contract carpet built to take punishment. The fibre blend runs 80% polypropylene, 15% nylon and 5% recycled polyester, solution-dyed for colour permanence. Anti-fray and anti-ravel technology keeps the edges tight, even under sustained foot traffic. The pile weight hits 940g/m2, dense enough to hold its shape year on year. A unique BioBase recycled backing (itself certified recycled) pairs durability with lower environmental impact.

The tile format suits modular layouts and makes problem areas easy to replace. Drop a few tiles and you avoid full-room re-fits. Light commercial spaces like reception lobbies and staff rooms work just as well as education settings.

Lay the tiles direct to subfloor using an appropriate tile adhesive. The tiles come pre-finished, so no onsite treatment needed. Castor chair rated for continuous use, so library seating and mobile desk setups present no problem. Static loading recovery exceeds 80% in 24 hours per BS 4939:1987, meaning footprints and dents lift out quickly.

Keep on top of spills at the moment they happen. Bleach cleanable means you can attack stains without fear of dye loss. Vacuum or sweep regularly. The colour won’t fade under light or standard shampoo cleaning to BS 1006 grade 4 or better. Burmatex’s reco2very take-back scheme handles end-of-life disposal with zero landfill waste, and the range is made using 100% certified renewable electricity.
