  • Easy installation

Possibly the feature that gives you the most value. Modular carpets have the peculiarity that its installation is extremely easy and versatile, to the point that the same person who bought it can install it following the procedures that the supplier gave them. Unlike the roll carpet, which requires the assistance of a specialist technician so that its installation is appropriate.

To install a roll carpet, it is necessary to cover the floor with a protective layer so that at the time of installation it does not damage the structure. The modular carpet is installed without any previous material, as the materials do not cause any damage to the floor.

  • Maintenance and durability

The traffic of people in a company is reflected significantly in the carpet that you have. Dust, stains and damages are some of the most common reasons why a carpet wears out.

Cleaning a roll carpet can become a true journey, because if the dirt is too deep it is necessary to remove all the carpet from the place to proceed to clean it or if it is damaged, resort to a patch. The ease of removing only the module that got dirty or damaged and cleaning the modular carpet separately gives it an advantage over the others.

  • Ease of mobility

Traditional roll rugs regularly have a size and weight that makes it difficult not only to install them but also to move them from one place to another. Unlike these, modular carpets have the advantage that they are built and organized in independent modules that facilitate their mobility. With this feature it is easy to move a part of the carpet, for example, from a hallway to a conference room.

  • Adaptability to the environment

Sometimes it is impossible to cover an area with a traditional carpet, because the space can be excessively reduced. Modular carpets give the consumer an excellent option in these cases, since it is possible to place only a small amount of modules in order to cover the desired area.

  • Design

Design is one of the characteristics that a person takes into account when acquiring a carpet. The roll carpet can be customized the way you want, however this design is permanent and can not be modified throughout its useful life. On the other hand, the modular carpet can also be created to the taste of the person but unlike the other, it is highly modifiable, that is, you can count on endless possibilities to design and modify the order of the modules.

Around the world there are a lot of companies that manufacture and distribute both roll and modular carpets. For example Mohawk Group, a Danish company with presence in several countries and Ege Carpets, American company that manufactures designer carpets. The carpet market is evolving by leaps and bounds to give more alternatives to people and provide them with options that best suit their needs.
