The new collection iQ Surface is the result of a collaboration between Tarkett and Note Design Studio, a range with equal weighting to function, form, expression of colour, and sustainability. It reveals the creative scope of Tarkett’s homogeneous vinyl flooring for a new generation of design applications on multiple surfaces, including walls and furniture as well as floors. The result: a collection in which hue, tone and material are pitched squarely towards sustainable design and architecture.

Sustainability lies at the heart of Tarkett’s design vision. As a producer, one of the key areas of sustainable focus is that of minimising use of virgin materials and replacing it with recycled ingredients. To enable its customers to recycle discarded vinyl floors, Tarkett is currently conducting a post-use recycling pilot project in the Nordic countries.
With this aim, Tarkett has recently developed an innovative recycling technical solution that enables its torn out homogeneous vinyl floors (made from 2011 onwards) to be cleaned from glue and filler residues, and turned into raw materials of the same quality as vinyl made directly from virgin raw materials.
