We believe aesthetics should be backed by science. That's why we have engineered our WellBAC® cushion carpet tile and LVT products to provide a wide range of deeper, long-term benefits. Sometimes the things you can't see make all the difference, so let's take a closer look.
Our carpet and LVT are more comfortable underfoot, which affects everyone in the workplace. In fact, our carpet's WellBAC® cushion backing can reduce muscle strain by as much as 24% compared to hardback carpet, which is especially important in sit-to-stand workplaces.
Noise causes stress and hinders concentration. That's why Milliken makes the quietest floors in the industry. The acoustic technology of our carpet and QuietLife LVT tiles reduces in-room and through-floor noise by up to 50% compared to other flooring.
LEARN MOREInterior design that fosters wellness is more important than ever. As such, we've designed cushion-backed carpets that have been shown to reduce muscle and joint strain. Our carpet and LVT acoustic properties reduce noise which can be a major cause of stress. And all Milliken flooring has been designed to limit indoor air emissions of VOCs to very low levels, because better indoor air quality can increase productivity by up to 11%.
In fact, our modular carpet with cushion backing achieves Green Label Plus certification from the Carpet and Rug Institute. Our LVT floorings are certified according to either Floorscore or Indoor Air Comfort Gold. You can be confident that Milliken flooring achieves the indoor air quality standards required by LEED, WELL, and BREEAM.
Our climate is changing. Milliken takes a holistic approach reducing our products' embodied carbon while maintaining the quality you've come to expect. We champion circularity through our N/XT Life™ reclamation programme, and continue on our carbon reduction journey offsetting the full cradle-to-gate carbon footprint through our M/PACT™ programme.

LEARN MOREThe cost of floor prep can make an unexpected impact on your project. But thanks to our engineered cushion carpet backing, you'll have minimal prep to do, saving time and money. Our tiles can be installed over old adhesives. It's seldom necessary to scarify or seal the floor. And you won't have to worry about telegraphing on poor subfloors.
TractionBack® 2.0 is a high-friction coating applied to the back of Milliken carpet tiles and planks, allowing for efficient, adhesive-free installation. By applying this proprietary coating in manufacturing, it makes installation much faster, saving time and money. Our latest formulation offers even better initial 'grab' to the floor but can also be easily lifted and replaced when required. TractionBack enables installers to work without wet adhesives or Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), supporting a streamlined installation process that helps meet your sustainability goals. All carpet with TractionBack can be safely recycled and reused, further protecting the well-being of people and the planet.
It's easy to keep Milliken floors looking beautiful. Our products are not only constructed to withstand heavy traffic, we've added surface treatments to improve soil repellence and make them easier to clean. And because our carpet and resilient flooring systems are modular, if a tile gets damaged, you can easily replace it. For added protection, install OBEX™ entrance flooring system and prevent up to 95% of dirt and contaminants from entering the rest of your building. This not only helps keep your floors cleaner, it can also improve indoor air quality.
Our carpet & LVT are made for the most demanding high traffic commercial areas and won’t lose their beauty like substandard floors do. Milliken WellBac open cell cushion backing absorbs impact, extending life upto 50% longer than hardback. That’s why our carpet leads the industry with a 15 year wear guarantee. Our LVT is engineered to provide best in class performance for scuff, stain and scratch resistance to keep looking good for longer.
