## Description

Academy Earth Brown 11865 is a 50cm x 50cm carpet tile built for heavy-traffic contract settings. The warm brown tone works across schools, colleges, offices and public spaces where footfall and wear run constant. Solution-dyed fibres lock colour in from the core, so fading stays minimal even under intense light. Bleach cleanable means spills and sanitising don't break the surface.

The tiles sit at 940g/m2 pile weight with a BioBase recycled backing. They're made from 80% polypropylene, 15% nylon and 5% recycled polyester. Anti-fray and anti-ravel technology keeps edges crisp and stops loose fibres at seams. Castor chairs and trolleys cause no visible wear; static recovery exceeds 80% in 24 hours.

Each tile is made with 100% certified renewable electricity. The recycled backing reduces carbon footprint without softening performance. They carry an A+ VOC rating for indoor air quality and contribute towards LEED and WELL Building Standards accreditation.

### Where it works

Education, offices, hospitals and retail environments where continuous heavy footfall is the norm. Corridors, classrooms and public areas take the punishment without visible wear. Castor chairs and heavy loads cause no stress.

### Installation

Tiles lay loose or glued down depending on your subfloor. They fit singly, so you can replace one tile later if needed. No underfloor heating considerations apply.

### Looking after it

Vacuum daily. For stains, hot water extraction works well and bleach cleaning is safe, so hygiene protocols in schools and healthcare settings stay simple. Colour fastness to light and shampoo meet high standards. The 15-year commercial warranty covers wear, fade and staining under normal contract use. Burmatex reco2very take-back service means end-of-life tiles avoid landfill.
