Healthy Flooring Brands of Choices Flooring
To help Choices Flooring deliver the flooring options that will improve your home's health, we have partnered with brands notable for their friendly products.
Generally, our brands tend to focus on using natural materials and ensuring a product is durable for years to come. However, some of our brands go a step further by creating flooring materials that minimise asthma triggers, are eco-friendly, and stand above the rest in terms of quality.
For our carpet range, the brand in question is Brease, a recent innovation in carpet technology made by Beaulieu Australia. Each of Brease's carpet tiles is recognised as sustainable flooring since their manufacturing process reduces carbon emissions and is energy-efficient. On top of this, they incorporate recycled materials that are treated for longevity to ensure you are getting the best quality carpet possible.
However, Brease's most notable benefit is that it is asthma and allergy-friendly to protect sensitive household occupants. Their innovative, dust-resistant, and hypoallergenic carpet improves air quality by preventing the growth of bacteria, mould, mildew, and fungi. Self-renewing odour technology also keeps your home fresh and clean while offering unmatched durability and ease of maintenance.
When it comes to hardwood flooring, Choices Flooring maintains its drive to offer healthy products that will make your home a happier place. Genero and Plantino are two such brands, offering luxury vinyl and timber flooring and laminate options respectively.
Genero's vinyl planks are allergy-friendly and able to withstand anything that life throws at them. Each product is made to be low maintenance while still being water-resistant and resilient. For rooms packed full of life, such as the rumpus or dining room, these benefits are key to keeping your home visually appealing throughout the years.
Alternatively, Plantino's timber products bring carefully-treated natural materials to your home with each plank laid. Not only do these flooring options offer the appeal of natural woods like cork oak trees they are also allergy-friendly. This means that any family member or guest can remain comfortable in any room of the house that uses Choices Flooring's Happy Healthy brands.
