Our Industry Guide to Specifying Flooring

Choosing the right flooring involves more than selecting a finish. Performance, sustainability and technical specification all play a key role in delivering successful projects.

Our Industry Guide to Specifying Flooring Lunch and Learn is designed for architects, interior designers, developers and specifiers who want practical guidance on making informed flooring decisions. View the flyer below to find out what’s covered and how to arrange a session for your team.

What You’ll Learn

Flooring Basics

Understand the different flooring options available, including where solid wood, engineered wood, laminate, rigid flooring and decorative parquet are most suitable. We’ll discuss the practical strengths and limitations of each to help ensure every specification is appropriate for its intended environment.

Specification Terminology

Flooring specifications often include technical terms that can be confusing or interpreted differently by suppliers. We’ll explain the terminology commonly used throughout the industry, helping you communicate more effectively, reduce misunderstandings and streamline the specification process.

Sustainability and Greenwashing

Environmental claims have become increasingly common, but not all products deliver what they promise. Our session explains how to identify recognised certifications, understand responsible sourcing, and distinguish genuine sustainability credentials from marketing claims, giving you greater confidence when selecting products for environmentally conscious projects.

Our Lunch and Learn sessions are ideal for:
