Carpet planks – is this the next big trend in flooring?

If floorboards and carpet had a baby, this is what it would look like!
Poor old carpet. The surface been through some rough times of late. Peer inside any suburban skip and you’ll probably see an old roll languishing, unloved – rejected in favour of trendy floorboards.
Back in the 1970s, it was a totally different story. Carpet was everywhere – even in bathrooms. If it wasn’t a thick shag pile, it was a chic but practical layer of carpet tiles. We just couldn’t get enough of the stuff.
But what’s this? Could a new form of carpet be about to lift fibrous flooring from out of the doldrums? Introducing carpet planks…
Carpet manufacturer Diamond Carpet is reporting a big rise in demand for its 100 x 25cm carpet planks in recent months. And while it specialises in commercial projects, they’ve no reason to doubt that planks could soon be seen in our own homes.
There are plenty more good things to be said about planks – they’re available in a wide choice of colours, for example. And they are better at insulating heat and sound, and less slippery underfoot, than the wood alternative.

We’ve asked the company if it would sell direct to members of the public – fingers crossed it’s a yes. Because if you’re after a new look – perhaps in a playroom or in a zoned open-plan kitchen – we think they’d be perfect. As for whether more companies will be bringing carpet planks to the masses.
