Design & Artwork
Use-Cases for AUTOMOTIVE
In the automotive sector, custom carpet runners are essential for enhancing the appearance and functionality of entrances, queue routes, corridors, and car prep zone walkway flooring. These carpet runners guide customers and staff safely through service areas, ensuring a professional and organised environment.
Design Specs
For optimal results, artwork should be submitted at a resolution of 150 DPI minimum, with 300 DPI preferred for detailed images. Vector formats like AI, EPS, and PDF are ideal for logos, while high-resolution JPGs and TIFFs work for photos. Ensure artwork uses CMYK colour profiles and includes Pantone references for consistency across long-run prints. Consider bleed and repeat patterns to maintain seamless transitions along the carpet runner’s length.
Practical Tips
- Position graphics where foot traffic is heaviest to maximise visibility and impact.
- Use contrasting colours to ensure readability in fast-paced environments, especially in high-traffic areas.
- Regular vacuuming and spot cleaning with mild detergents will keep carpet runners looking fresh and professional.
Finishing & Safety
Overlock Stitching
Overlock stitching provides a traditional edge that prevents fraying, making it ideal for indoor automotive corridors and long-term installations where aesthetics are key.
Overlock cost: £0.50 per running foot • Best for: indoor corridors, retail aisles, long-term installs
Anti-Slip Rubber Border
The anti-slip rubber border ensures stability and safety, particularly in high-traffic routes and areas prone to spills, like trolley zones and wet-risk areas.
Rubber border cost: £0.75 per running foot • Best for: high-traffic routes, trolley zones, wet-risk areas
