In a busy office environment, your flooring works as hard as your employees. From bustling lobbies to conference rooms and hallways, high-traffic areas demand flooring that’s tough, easy to maintain, and professional in appearance.
At Ultimate Flooring in Akron, our CFI-certified sales team helps businesses choose commercial flooring solutions that balance durability, style, and cost efficiency.
Best Flooring Options for Offices with Heavy Foot Traffic
- Commercial Carpet Tile: The most popular choice for offices. Provides sound absorption, reducing noise in open workspaces. Easy to replace one tile if stained or damaged. Available in endless colors and patterns to match your office design.
- Luxury Vinyl Tile & Plank (LVT/LVP): Waterproof, durable, and scratch-resistant. Mimics the look of wood, stone, or abstract designs. Low maintenance—just sweep and mop. Ideal for lobbies, breakrooms, and high-traffic hallways.
- Ceramic & Porcelain Tile: Perfect for entryways and restrooms that see constant use. Extremely durable and stain-resistant. Works well in offices where sanitation and cleanliness are top priorities.
Flooring to Avoid in High-Traffic Offices
- Solid Hardwood – Prone to scratches and dents, not ideal for commercial wear.
- Residential Carpet – Stains quickly and wears out in heavy traffic.
- Low-Grade Laminate – Chips or swells with spills and foot traffic.
Key Considerations for Office Flooring
- Noise Control: Carpet tiles absorb sound, reducing distractions in busy offices.
- Maintenance Needs: Choose materials that are easy to clean and repair.
- Professional Appearance: Flooring should reflect your company’s image.
- Longevity vs. Cost: Commercial flooring is an investment that pays off in durability.
