4 ways Commercial Flooring improves productivity

18 March 2022

Commercial Flooring can have a significant impact on productivity in the workplace, with studies showing that professionally fitted flooring is 20% more productive.


The team at QC Commercial Flooring has built a wealth of experience in the industry over many years and have fitted many commercial floors within businesses across the UK. Our team has put together 4 ways productivity is improved when you have perfectly fitted flooring.

Quiet Workspace 
Research over the years has shown that noise and disruption can have a negative impact on people and ultimately the productivity of that workforce. High levels of noise can also impact mental health and wellbeing.

Commercial carpets reduce noise in the workplace by 80% by absorbing sound, resulting in a calm environment, increasing staff health levels and increasing productivity. 

Creative Work Practices
An increasing number of companies are looking for more innovative ways for their employees to work, rather than just being stuck at a desk on a chair that is bad for posture. One of the main crazes to appear from this is active workplace solutions such as sit /  stand desks and even walking desks.

Known as activity-based working (ABW) employees have begun utilising the option for active working styles rather than the traditional sit at a desk 9-5 routine. The downside is that more people move around.  Having commercial flooring such as carpet minimises further disruption.

Calming Environment
A choice of flooring is one of the most important decisions you can make, from materials to colour. Opting for a natural colour scheme is one of the best options as bright vibrant colours  can be off-putting. Colour can be added by hanging things on walls or having coloured chairs, but the flooring should be neutral and also practical. 

Workplace Comfort 
A hot and stuffy office can dramatically reduce productivity.  A lot of companies focus mostly on air movement, but considering the flooring you choose can make a huge impact on workplace comfort. 

One of the best commercial flooring options is carpet tiles. Laid properly they can act as effective insulators, ensuring your workplace remains at a constant temperature all year round, keeping your office manageable no matter the weather.
