Design & Artwork
Use-Cases for EDUCATION
Customised carpet runners offer versatile solutions in educational settings. Use them to demarcate entrances, guide students through queue routes, highlight key corridors, and enhance walkways. These carpet runners are also ideal for setting up event routes during school functions or open days, ensuring smooth movement and clear directions.
Design Specs
For optimal results, supply artwork at a minimum resolution of 150 DPI, with 300 DPI preferred for detailed designs. Acceptable file formats include vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) and high-resolution raster files (PSD, TIFF, JPG). Ensure artwork is in CMYK and include Pantone references for consistent branding. Consider bleed and repeat patterns for long runs to maintain a seamless look.
Practical Tips
- Strategically place carpet runners where foot traffic naturally slows, such as near entrances or in front of notice boards.
- Ensure high-contrast designs for readability in busy corridors, maintaining visibility from a distance.
- Regularly vacuum and spot-clean carpet runners to extend their lifespan and maintain a professional appearance.
Finishing & Safety
Overlock Stitching
Overlock stitching provides a neat, durable finish that prevents fraying, perfect for educational environments where carpet runners are a long-term fixture. This method is ideal for areas where comfort and aesthetics are priorities, such as indoor corridors and retail aisles.
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 offers enhanced safety by reducing trip hazards and keeping carpet runners securely in place. This finish is ideal for high-traffic routes, trolley zones, and areas prone to wet conditions, ensuring both safety and stability.
Rubber border cost: £0.75 per running foot • Best for: high-traffic routes, trolley zones, wet-risk areas
