Desso, one of Europe’s carpet giants, is launching a toolkit that lays out the advantages of modern carpets within the Education sector and shows why high quality comfort gets full marks in a classroom environment.

Featuring a brochure that explains exactly what carpets can achieve for a classroom, six quiz cards banishing common misconceptions (such as the notion that carpet is more expensive to clean than hard flooring when actually it is cheaper) and a carpet sample showing Desso product at its finest.

As the brochure shows, there are many compelling reasons why Desso carpets are ideal for Education establishments. For example, they are hard wearing; less slippery than hard floors, therefore aiding health and safety; they absorb light, reduce glare and soak up noise, making a vital environmental contribution to educational performance; they are soft, and radiate warmth for a friendly, welcoming feel; and studies show that, contrary to popular belief, they reduce dust particles and allergens that other surfaces tend to release, thereby aiding cleaner air and a more pleasant atmosphere for teaching and learning.
