Acoustics play a significant role in an interior environment. Background noise, particularly in open plan spaces, can affect concentration, stress levels and ultimately productivity. Carpet tiles and planks with Enviro Bac Plus® cushion backing have a Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) 66% greater on average when compared to standard Enviro Bac® carpet tiles. This cushion backing is made using recycled materials and is the thickest cushion backing offered for GH Commercial carpet tiles. Enviro Bac Plus® contains approximately 75% recycled content (recycled material is a mixture of pre- and post- consumer material).
Download FlyerWith increased recycled content over standard backing, handling high RH% subfloor installation and providing similar performance to thicker cushion backing such as Enviro Bac Plus®, Enviro Bac Lite® also allows for approximately 35% less transport emissions compared to thicker and heavier cushion back solutions*. Enviro Bac Lite® is also designed to reduce the thickness variation when adjoining lower profile finishes in order to utilise standard trim solutions or no trim at all when installing adjacent to our 4.5mm LVT offering. Enviro Bac Lite® contains approximately 85% recycled content (recycled material is a mixture of pre- and post- consumer material).
Download Flyer*Enviro Bac Lite® has significantly lower transport associated greenhouse gas emissions per m2 of tiles when compared to our Enviro Bac Plus® carpet tile backing because more tiles can be transported per truck load and because the tiles themselves are lighter. The emissions reduction percentage has been calculated on the basis that a full standard B Double trailer set can accommodate 4,896 m2 of Enviro Bac Lite® carpet tiles weighing a total of 17.23 tonnes, whereas the same trailer set carrying Enviro Bac Plus® can accommodate 3,672m2 of carpet tiles weighing 20.16 tonnes. Using standard LCA methodology for calculating transport emissions (i.e. assuming a straight-line relationship between weight and transport emissions when all other factors such as vehicle size are constant), the increased m2 and reduced volume results in a 35.9% reduction in the nominal greenhouse gas emissions associated with transport.
