Testimonial

To whom it may concern;

In 2001 Aprilia USA was searching for ways to reduce our operational costs for our corporate display. One issue was the rising costs of carpeting, maintenance, cleaning fees and transportation. The solution was SWISSTRAX brand floor tiles. We have been using the same floor now for five years, over 60 consumer shows and have had tens of thousands of people walk on the same floor. The look is quite different from carpet, and to be honest we have never so much as pressure washed the black tiles.

Not only does the flooring stand up to thousands of feet - but to the weight and stress of forklifts that regularly driver over the flooring to set up our displays. Our seven display kiosks weigh up to 2200 lbs each, and rest on four 4" casters placing incredible weight on small contact points. The flooring still holds up, and the kiosks can roll off the floor when unlocked - not possible on carpet. By modifying a few floor tiles, we are able to allow for floor pocket electrical supply at any spot in the display, and set-up and tear down labor is equal to carpeting when you factor in carpet tape, maintenance and cleaning, labor time, as well as eventual replacement. For transportation we simply split the flooring into large sections, and stack it on a rolling cart for transportation.

A bonus is that the modular flooring can be tailored to almost any shape and size of booth - something that often destroys carpeting - especially when there are venue consideration such a support poles etc. Aprilia USA has had displays ranging from 60x60 feet down to small 10x20's for simple product displays. No matter the size the consistency of the look and texture immediately designates the space as an Aprilia USA Corporate display.

some shots of our display -

The flooring has been one of the lowest maintenance Items in our display, an important consideration when you have fourteen events in 22 weeks covering North America! I would not hesitate to buy more, and recommend the flooring for any displaying company seeking an operational cost reduction, without the logistical hassle and time spent dealing with carpeting.
