[Denver, Colo.] Interface announced it has commissioned an objective third party researcher, Dr. Debra Harris, to conduct a lifecycle cost analysis (LCCA) of hard, resilient and soft flooring. After assessing the updated data, the company has also developed an online LCCA Calculator that is accessible, along with the study’s results, at
www.info.interface.com/Calculate.
According to the company, with no recent updates or tools in the last dozen years to provide current and reliable documentation for builders, facility managers, architects and designers to assess the cost-effectiveness and lifecycle value of soft versus hard surface flooring for their projects, Interface decided to take action.
And, those results are conclusive: Soft flooring – in particular, carpet tile – is the most cost-effective flooring option available. In addition to being one of the least expensive to purchase and install, it comes with fewer and lower equipment costs, and costs less to maintain, according to Interface.
The company will be sharing the LCCA report and its new calculator this week with IFMA World Workplace attendees. The company is exhibiting in Booth #238.
