Design & Artwork
Use-Cases for TRANSPORT
Custom carpet runners are essential in the transport sector, serving as visual guides in entrances, queue routes, corridors, and walkways. They help in directing passenger flow, ensuring safety and clarity in high-footfall areas like bus terminals and train stations.
Design Specs
For optimal results, supply artwork in a resolution of at least 150 DPI, with 300 DPI preferred for detailed designs. Vector formats such as AI, EPS, or PDF are ideal, while CMYK colour profiles and Pantone references ensure consistency. Consider long-run repeat and bleed guidance to maintain seamless visuals across extended lengths.
Practical Tips
- Ensure placement of key messages where passenger footfall is highest to maximize visibility.
- Use high-contrast colours for readability in busy areas.
- Regular cleaning using mild detergents helps maintain the carpet runners’ appearance and longevity.
Finishing & Safety
Overlock Stitching
Overlock stitching provides a durable edge finish, ideal for indoor environments where aesthetics and comfort are important. This finish prevents fraying and enhances the longevity of the carpet runner.
Overlock cost: £0.50 per running foot • Best for: indoor corridors, retail aisles, long-term installs
Anti-Slip Rubber Border
This finish adds a secure, low-profile edge, minimizing trip hazards and ensuring the carpet runner stays in place. It is particularly suited for areas with high foot traffic or where trolleys frequently pass.
Rubber border cost: £0.75 per running foot • Best for: high-traffic routes, trolley zones, wet-risk areas
