AN INNOVATIVE SOLUTION

2023, Quarter 2

Irvington Middle School has adopted an innovative approach to its hallway flooring, departing from the conventional use of LVT, VCT, or Terrazzo. These materials, while durable, fail to address the issue of noise reduction. Inspired by a carpeting solution observed in a high-traffic skiing lodge, the assistant superintendent introduced Flotex Waterproof Carpet Tile to the school’s hallways. Just as skiing lodges require waterproof flooring to combat moisture and foot traffic, so do school hallways. This transition replaced the original flexible Terrazzo tile with Flotex Waterproof Carpet Tile, a project executed by Milburn’s team over the course of one week, incorporating various color patterns. Maintenance is comparable to that of VCT. Despite initial skepticism, including among the custodial staff, the results have been remarkably positive. After the first month of school, teachers appreciate the noise reduction benefits and the improved ease of cleaning compared to the previous flooring. Notably, Milburn’s team also skillfully incorporated a circular logo into the hallway floor, demonstrating their expertise and craftsmanship.
