Enhanced Comfort for Active Environments

Long-Term Value You Can Count On

Moisture issues are common in school buildings—but costly mitigation doesn’t have to be. Our WellBAC® cushion-backed carpet tile is designed to let floors breathe, allowing moisture vapor to evaporate naturally without the need for primers or surface treatments. That means faster installations, fewer delays, and reduced risk of future flooring failures.

Fast Delivery with Government Requirements in Mind

Keep your projects on schedule with flooring solutions that are ready when you are. With a selection of carpet and resilient products that are manufactured in the USA and align with federal, state, and local procurement regulations—helping you meet policy requirements with confidence. With quick-ship options, you can expect dependable lead times and responsive service, even under tight deadlines.

Designed for Healthier Spaces

Milliken carpet tiles are Red List Free and PVC-Free, and our OBEX™ entry systems help block dirt and contaminants at the door—supporting improved indoor air quality and facility cleanliness.

Acoustics

WellBAC® cushion-backed carpet absorbs up to 50% more sound than hardback carpet—helping reduce noise and improve focus in busy government spaces.
