SECTOR FOCUS FLOORING IN HOSPITALITY & LEISURE
commercial spaces.
‘We believe beautiful spaces should also
be safe underfoot, which is why the new
Opus designs offer designers the freedom
to achieve the aesthetic they’re looking
for without compromising on technical
performance. With this launch, we are
upgrading the specification of our entire
Opus collection to offer a superior slip
resistance rating.
‘So whether it’s a hospitality venue, a
shared living environment or a busy public
space, the expanded Opus range delivers a
go-to solution for supporting wellbeing in
any setting, with superior slip safety, long-
term durability and design authenticity.’
Engineered for functionality without
sacrificing visual quality, the Opus
collection brings reliable safety to the
hardest working commercial spaces. In
restaurants and bars, where flooring must
balance ambience with resilience, Opus
allows designers to specify one cohesive
design across different areas while
maintaining confidence underfoot.
In aged living developments and spaces
designed to support neurodiversity and
disability, the Opus collection enables
continuous flooring schemes that support
orientation and comfort while ensuring
safety in higher-risk areas.
Valencia from the Opus Collection By integrating slip resistance into the
design itself rather than relying on visually
intrusive surface textures, Opus helps
create inclusive environments that remain
calm, familiar and easy to navigate.
The new Opus range also offers
contractors a responsible and sustainable
choice. The collection aligns with
the Karndean Evolve sustainability
strategy, focusing on long-term material
responsibility, independently audited
supply-chain transparency and product
longevity. Specifiers benefit from products
that protect indoor air quality with low
VOC credentials, long-lasting surface
protection that reduces reliance on harsh
cleaning chemicals, a take-back scheme
for installation offcuts and up to a 15-year
product warranty in commercial settings.
With its authentic handcrafted designs,
long-lasting slip resistance and durable
construction that is easy to maintain, the
new Opus collection is set to become a
flooring choice for commercial specifiers
working on future-minded projects and
healthier buildings, enabling confident
design where style and performance go
hand-in- hand.
