TacTiles™ are small, clear plastic adhesive squares, which you place underneath carpet tiles to fix them firmly to each other. This patented system creates a ‘floating’ floor layer – so the flooring is fastened tight, but not stuck permanently in place. TacTiles™ come in small cardboard boxes that are easy to carry, transport and recycle.
TacTiles™ reduce the environmental impact drastically compared to using traditional glue, and virtually eliminate VOC (volatile organic compounds) and unpleasant odours. This means an important contribution to improving the indoor air quality and that the installation of the new floor can be carried out while people are working, not disrupting the usual business and protecting the wellbeing of employees.
TacTiles™ are quick to install because there is no waiting time and unlike glue, TacTiles™ need no time to set. So as soon as the final carpet tile is laid, your floor is ready to use. And when the time comes to replace or move the carpet, TacTiles™ facilitate easier uplift and recycling. There’s no sticky mess on the backing and no need for a costly clean-up of the sub floor. You can even lift and replace individual carpet tiles with no problem.
Our sustainable and flexible glue-free installation system is included with purchase of Biosfera I.
