Choosing the right flooring for educational spaces requires balancing safety, maintenance, budget, and creativity. Eagle Mat and Floor Products Commercial Floors offers diverse flooring options tailored to the unique needs of K-12 schools and higher education environments.
Classroom and Library Flooring:
Classrooms: Popular options for classrooms include carpet, luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and vinyl composition tile (VCT). Carpet offers comfort and plays a vital role in improving the acoustical environment by absorbing sound; LVT is low-maintenance, occupancy-ready, and available in a wide range of designs including stone, wood, and abstract patterns; VCT is a durable budget friendly flooring that can be installed in many different colors and patterns.
Libraries: For school libraries, Modular Carpet Tiles and Broadloom Carpet are ideal choices. Both options create a soft, comfortable surface that absorbs noise, reduces distractions, and supports a quiet, focused environment for reading and studying.
Hallways, Stairwell, and Cafeteria Flooring: VCT, LVT, or rubber flooring are all good options. VCT is moderately priced and has been one of the number one flooring choices for common areas in schools for many years. LVT offers a higher end look with beautiful aesthetics and lower maintenance cost over the life of the flooring. These types of floors are easy to clean and durable against heavy traffic and spills. Rubber flooring offers comfort under foot, superior slip resistant, and dampens noise. Rubber flooring also has built-in waxes that help dirt and grime release from the floor surface making it easier to keep clean.
STEM/Lab Flooring: Sheet vinyl is an excellent choice for spill-prone and high-moisture areas, offering minimal seams and easy maintenance. Sheet vinyl surface is highly resistant to stains, chemicals, and moisture, making it a reliable solution for demanding environments.
When heat welded, sheet vinyl becomes impermeable—creating a hygienic, seamless finish that supports both durability and long-term performance.
Gyms/Weight Room Flooring: Rubber flooring is a durable and safe choice that combines performance with design flexibility. Its high-quality, sustainable surfaces are ideal for a wide range of sports environments—delivering comfort, resilience, and style.
From weight rooms to recovery areas, Rubber flooring withstands the intense demands of athletes and high-traffic use. Its slip resistance, shock absorption, and ease of maintenance make it a trusted choice for facilities committed to supporting athletic success.
