Step Up rises to the challenge and keeps dirt out

Offices, hotels, schools, public buildings and restaurants – they’re all faced with plenty of traffic and a lot of potentially floor-damaging factors. The solution? Step Up. By installing this carpet flooring in the hallway over a span of approximately 6 footsteps, it’s possible to catch up to 80% of all incoming dirt before it hits the main floor.

This barrier mat forms an organic buffer between the outdoors and the inside, scraping the dirt from any shoes that tread on it. The result is a captivating entryway – in every sense of the word – and beautiful, flawless flooring throughout the rest of the building.

Why choose Step Up?

Step Up, our innovative entryway mat, provides the ultimate protection for all floors in the building – and it does so in style!

Protect adjacent floors

Step Up creates a protective barrier between the exterior and an inside floor. From hospitals to offices and everything in between, with Step Up in the entryway, your building is ready for any number of visitors and the lifespan of the floors will increase. All you need is a space of about 3 to 5 meters of Step Up – enough to cover about 6 footsteps. That will take care of up to 80% of potentially damaging dirt coming in.

Cut down on cleaning

Since Step Up prevents dirt from reaching the main floor in an office, hotel or restaurant – or wherever else it is installed – it means that spaces remain clean for longer. As a result, Step Up saves precious time and money, since it cuts cleaning to a minimum.

Stay sustainable

Like all IVC Commercial carpet tiles, the yarn used in Step Up consists of up to 30% recycled materials. And even better: once Step Up reaches the end of its lifecycle, its backing is also 100% recyclable.
