Transcribing Humanity onto Floors
If there’s one thing that’s clear about Tarkett, it’s this: they’ve got a knack for turning ordinary into extraordinary. This time, they’ve managed to take our age-old urge to communicate through symbols and weave it into their latest flooring innovation: Transcribe™. It’s got flair, style, and best of all, purpose. We're talking about carpets and luxury vinyl tiles that aren't just there to cover the ground; they bring the room together, sparking a sense of identity and connection.
Artistic Expression Meets Practical Flooring
These aren't your average floor coverings. Transcribe offers four distinct carpet styles spanning nine colorways, with six luxurious vinyl tiles (LVT) styles painting on four vibrant palettes each. That's a whole lot of options for an office looking to step up on aesthetic without compromising identity. Dialect™, for instance, throws dense, conversational textures into the mix, making collaboration feel as natural as sharing a cup of joe.
And if that wasn’t enough, you’ve got Glyphic™, dripping in historical vibes without ties to any one era. It’s the kind of patterning that nudges its way into every curious conversation by asking, "Are those ancient hieroglyphs on your floor, or is it just me?" It's a bold, clever move from Tarkett, flexing their 140-plus-year history in the flooring game.
The floors are talking, and with Transcribe, they’ve got stories worth listening to—a testament to how we’ve always sought connection.
Not Just Looks: Sustainability and Durability
Now, it’s not all looks and no substance. Tarkett isn’t just about slapping a pretty design on their products. Nope, these folks are rooted deep in sustainability. We're talking about the ethos® carpet tiles and Flex-Aire™ cushion tiles, which don’t just look great but are also a big win for the environment. With up to 78% recycled content and sustainability accolades like Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze v.4.0, these carpets wear their eco-consciousness proudly.
- Pulse Code™, for those who love a lively beat underfoot.
- Hieroglyph™, a nod to the past with its symbolic richness.
The LVTs in this collection come equipped with everything needed for a strenuous office life. The Techtonic® polyurethane coating gives them the clout to take a beating—offering design freedom without forsaking durability. They've found the sweet spot where aesthetics converse fluently with longevity.
The ReStart® Advantage: Circular Economy
But that’s not where the story ends. Tarkett's commitment to sustainability is clearly a cornerstone of their operations. Through the ReStart® program, Tarkett pledges to take back used products, ensuring that these floors don't end up as just another landfill statistic. They recycle the ethos backing into itself and Contour into open-loop recycling cycles. It’s not just corporate talk; it's how Tarkett does business, opening the doors to circularity in the flooring universe.
Tarkett has set its sights on sustainability with science-backed carbon emissions reduction targets. Clearly, they’re not just giving a new look to our floors but also ensuring they answer the environmental call with integrity.

Tarkett’s nearly 3.3 billion euros in net sales from 2025 shows they aren't slowing down anytime soon. With their 12,000 employees and 33 production sites, they continue to dominate globally.
