Design & Artwork
Use-Cases for WAYFINDING
Custom carpet runners are perfect for a variety of wayfinding applications, including entrances, queue routes, corridors, and walkways. They guide visitors seamlessly, enhancing both safety and navigation in retail environments, events, and reception areas.
Design Specs
For optimal results, we recommend a resolution of 150 DPI minimum, with 300 DPI preferred for detailed artwork. Acceptable file formats include vector files like AI, EPS, and PDF, ideal for logos, while raster files such as PSD and TIFF suit photographic content. Ensure artwork is in CMYK with Pantone references for consistent color across multiple carpet runners. Consider long-run repeat and bleed to maintain design integrity.
Practical Tips
- Position carpet runners where foot traffic naturally slows, such as near entrances and checkout areas.
- Use high-contrast colors for readability at a glance, especially in busy environments.
- Maintain carpet runners by vacuuming regularly and spot-cleaning spills promptly to extend their lifespan.
Finishing & Safety
Overlock Stitching
Overlock stitching provides a classic textile edge, ideal for preventing fraying in indoor settings. This finish is perfect for retail aisles and long-term installations where aesthetics are crucial.
Overlock cost: £0.50 per running foot • Best for: indoor corridors, retail aisles, long-term installs
Anti-Slip Rubber Border
Our anti-slip rubber border is designed to reduce trip hazards and securely hold the carpet runner in place, making it an excellent choice for high-traffic areas and zones prone to wetness.
Rubber border cost: £0.75 per running foot • Best for: high-traffic routes, trolley zones, wet-risk areas
