TILETABS – HIGH TACK CARPET TILE ADHESIVE
TileTabs are high tack adhesive tabs that connect carpet tiles together, resulting in a continual layer that gently grips existing flooring. Escape typical trappings with TileTabs for a versatile, glue-free installation solution for modular carpet goods. Just peel, place, & press!
STABILITY
TileTabs’® grip strips provide a low-tack, high-shear boundary layer designed specifically to stabilize the installation and prevent creep in high traffic areas. These are definitely valuable at entry points where TileTabs can now enable the use of EF Contract’s walk-off modular carpet for walk-off mats placed over hard surfaces like stone, tile and terrazzo.
DESIGN & COLOR
What’s more, this added security opens up a world of design possibilities like assembling carpet tiles into functional area rugs. With TileTabs, you’re not locked into permanent wall-to-wall carpet solutions, but rather free to explore inspiring color and design combinations for a permanent or temporary new look.
ENVIRONMENTAL
With EF Contract’s TileTabs system less is more: less mess and less waste means a reduced environmental footprint. TileTabs eliminate the need for cumbersome materials and tools like wet adhesive spreads thus eliminating harmful VOCs from the installation process.
