As with any market, products evolve and new concepts are considered to align with customer needs and to solve problems relating to the industry. Sustainable materials, or rustic and natural, the flooring market is seeing an exciting shift, with several trends exploding in 2022.
We're always looking to showcase new trends, tips and provide valuable insights for our clients, to clarify their vision and help guide them to a decision that suits their needs, as well as informing them of the endless combinations available with flooring, tiling, fixtures, etc. Here's our top trends, as inspired by an article written by woodpeckerflooring.co.uk.
HYBRID FLOORING:
As technology continues to develop, as does the flooring options available for those looking to remodel! Hybrid flooring provides the benefits of a water, scratch and dent resistant surface, all whilst delivering on quality and price. An affordable and practical solution for those with a busy lifestyle. Made with a 1mm hard wood top layer, and reinforced with a core backing, it presents the benefits of real wood and LVP.
If you lead a busy lifestyle, this could be the best choice for you!
PARQUET FLOORING:
Parquet is a luxury flooring solution with a geometric mosaic of hard wood, used for decorative and aesthetic purposes. This luxury alternative presents beautifully throughout the home, perfectly complementing a modernised interior.
The choice of herringbone or chevron patterns will allow you to create showpieces throughout the home, depending on the way in which each room has been designed. This type of flooring can also be incorporated alongside another design to separate individual spaces, such as the kitchen from a hardwood floor dining area (as an example).
SOLID WOOD FLOORING:
A classic choice, often associated with being luxury and more costly than other solutions, is solid/hardwood flooring. If you're considering durability and longevity as part of the selection process, this may be the better suited option for you. Top tip: Find high quality solid wood flooring, suitable for deep cleaning and/or the ability to sand it down - doing so will allow you to refresh this in the future, giving your floor a new lease of life and delivering on longevity.
SUSTAINABLE FLOORING:
In the modern era, sustainability is becoming more and more of a talking point, with 'Generation Z' shoppers demanding an economical solution to their retail experience. Gen Z and Millennials are therefore more likely to make purchasing decisions based off principles and morals, meaning cost-irrelevant, the solution such audience may choose will align with their individual values.
Woodpecker, the inspiration behind this guide offers "full FSC or PEFC certifications and are committed to being a good ancestor for future generations" - according to their original blog post. Whilst prices sit at a higher, premium level, this selection in flooring is purpose-driven, with the intention of contributing to a greener, more sustainable planet.
