Burmatex tivoli Rio Red 20273

Burmatex tivoli Rio Red 20273 brings a warm, inviting tone to commercial and residential spaces. The deep red colour works well in open-plan offices, corridors and entrance areas where you need both style and durability. Each tile is made from 100% recycled bio-genic solution-dyed nylon with a recycled BioBase backing, cutting embodied carbon without compromise on performance.

The pile sits at 196,500 fibres per square metre, giving a dense, substantial feel underfoot. At 6.5mm thick with a 1/10th gauge loop construction, these tiles stand up to wheeled chairs, trolleys and constant foot traffic. The Class 33 heavy commercial wear rating means they can handle demanding environments and maintain their colour under regular use.

Colour fastness to light meets Grade 6 minimum, so Rio Red holds its depth across sunny and artificially lit rooms alike. It also resists shampoo cleaning at Grade 4-5, making maintenance straightforward for facilities teams.

Where it works

These tiles suit offices, meeting rooms, reception areas and commercial hallways. They perform equally well in hospitality settings, retail spaces and light industrial environments. The modular format lets you lay out complex patterns or stick to simple grids, and individual tiles are easy to replace if one takes damage.

Installation

Carpet tiles are laid loose-lay or glued depending on your subfloor and traffic patterns. Burmatex tivoli tiles have a stable recycled backing that suits both methods. They sit flat on concrete, screed and wooden subfloors. Underfloor heating is compatible, with a TOG value of 0.39.

Looking after it

Vacuum regularly to lift soil and fibre. For spills, blot immediately. Periodic shampooing restores pile texture in high-traffic zones. Burmatex backs these tiles with a 15-year commercial warranty, covering wear and colour fastness under normal use.
