How to choose the right carpet for your event

Floor coverings are an irreplaceable component of any event. While carpets at home serve primarily as an ergonomic and design component, at events they combine multiple functions at the same time. Colourful and diverse, floor coverings can represent the organiser's corporate image, distinguish the different areas of the congress and even mark the direction of the aisles (which in today's times is very useful). In this article we tell you about the most popular floor coverings and how to choose the best option according to the specific needs of your event.

• - Artificial grass: perfect for outdoor events and seating areas. There are different types of artificial grass available on the market, which can vary in the density of the strokes or thickness. There are some products that look realistic, beautiful and are very soft to walk on even barefoot, which makes them perfect also for children's events. Their biggest advantage is that they come in rolls and can cover any surface. Another advantage is that they are waterproof and do not mould if they get wet in the rain.
• - Exhibition carpet: the most common solution for trade fairs and congresses, these carpets are thin, refined and come in a variety of colours. They are perfect for use in the aisles between stands or for red carpet events. Textures can vary according to the specific budget, with the cheapest being quite fine and the higher class range - denser and thicker.
• - Carpet tiles: carpet tiles are special textile squares of 50x50cm or 1x1m and are currently the most environmentally friendly solution for events. They are made from recycled material and, unlike the previous options, can be used several times for different events. When they pay for themselves, they are recycled, which makes them a very sustainable solution in the long term. They come in 16 different colours and the best thing is that you can create different mosaics to mark directions, differentiate functional areas of the event or simply create fun designs. You can check out some examples here.
• - Custom printing: for the most exquisite tastes, this option allows you to have virtually any type of image or pattern printed on the carpet. The image is printed onto the material via a high-tech printer, allowing you to have anything, including your logo, printed on the floor.

There are other less popular options such as vinyl, laminate or even rubber. Whichever option you choose, be sure to match the colours of the venue with the furniture and floor coverings to achieve a perfect symphony in all aspects of the design. Floor coverings are a very elegant solution for events, in addition to the beautiful look they bring to your event, they also provide acoustics and comfort for your attendees.
