When choosing carpet tiles, looks alone are not enough. In commercial spaces with hundreds of people walking daily, you need to evaluate durability, design, acoustic performance, and eco-certification — all four — to avoid regrets five years down the line.
The 4 Selection Criteria
1. Durability
Class 33+ commercial grade required. Check LC3+ traffic rating for corridors and lobbies to ensure 10+ year service life
2. Design
100+ color options and diverse patterns. Verify if brand CI color customization is available
3. Acoustic Performance
Carpet tiles themselves act as absorbers. Impact noise reduction (IIC) and footstep damping contribute to the DIN 18041 Group B absorption target차음 vs 흡음 차이 이해하기 →
4. Eco-certification
Environmental Label (EL) certification and recycled content. Bonus points in public procurement and green building projects

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Anker 카펫타일은 어떤 환경 인증을 받았나요?
Anker 카펫타일은 환경부 환경표지 인증(EL 마크)을 보유합니다. 재활용 PET 원단 사용과 엄격한 VOC 방출 기준을 충족하여, LEED·G-SEED 등 친환경 건축 인증에도 기여 점수를 얻을 수 있습니다. ESG 보고서 작성 기업이나 공공조달에서 친환경 제품 적용이 필요한 경우 특히 유용합니다.
Q. Is carpet tile installation difficult?
Professional installation teams complete 100–200 m² per day. Pressure-sensitive adhesive means minimal noise and dust — partial installation during work hours is even possible. When tiles get damaged, you replace just the affected piece.
Q. Do carpet tiles help with office acoustics?
Yes, significantly. Carpet tiles reduce impact noise (IIC improvement of 20–25 dB) while absorbing airborne sound from footsteps and chair movements. In the DIN 18041 Group B framework, floor coverage is an important contributor to reaching the required A/V absorption ratio for comfortable workspaces.
Q. What eco-certifications should I look for?
Look for the Korean Environmental Label from the Ministry of Environment. Anker carpet tiles hold this certification, confirming recycled PET content and low VOC emissions. This matters for green building projects and ESG reporting.
