Description
Available in 27 colours spanning a contemporary palette, Tessera Chroma is a semi-plain textured loop pile carpet tile that suits a variety of application areas. Each design is made up of a carefully composed mix of three colours delivering a soft and “chalky” effect designed to bring balance and harmony to a space. Tessera Chroma can be used on its own, yet is great to combine with other carpet tiles or Allura Flex vinyl tiles using the same adhesive, without the need for transition strips, additional profiles, or inconvenient build-up of the sub floor.
Features and benefits:
- 750 gsm pile weight for opulent texture and underfoot comfort.
- 100% Aquafil solution dyed polyamide 6 yarn, for durability and colour fastness.
- Contains 62% recycled content by weight.
- Meets Ska criteria for M12 soft floor coverings.
- The recommended adhesive for Tessera Chroma is 542 Eurofix Tack Plus.
