In a space where people can spend up to one third of their lives, our local design team are focused on using evidence-based design for creating spaces that inspire, induce productivity and build a happy and healthy workforce.

Using flooring to create defined and designated spaces, we believe in fostering agile and adaptive working solutions that encourage social interaction and support positive wellbeing from the ground up.

From biophilic to wayfinding design or solutions for increasing collaboration and creativity, GH Commercial can bring your workplace vision to life.

Workplace

When customers participate in a busy retail environment, they need to be engaged, feel a sense of connection and leave feeling satisfied. It’s a physical experience that, with plenty of data driven science for space optimisation and customer journeys, floorcoverings can play a significant part in. 

Bright colours and bold patterns make the floor a feature to help create an immersive experience. Opting for muted tones can allow products and displays to stand out. Clever use of colour and pattern can direct foot traffic or subliminally create zones guiding customers through a space. Or dynamic, customised floors offer branding opportunities.

With a range of comfortable, reliable and beautiful flooring solutions for large department stores and supermarkets to small boutique retail spaces, we have you covered.

Retail

Public spaces are always on the lookout for flexible flooring solutions to meet customer demands. From bustling sports stadiums, convention and exhibition centres to airports, libraries and other civic spaces, flooring plays an important role in providing comfort, insulation and cohesion.

Able to withstand the demands of heavy foot traffic, our public space flooring solutions can be used to create dynamic spaces within a space and direct the flow of people to where they need to be.

With flooring installed in iconic venues around the world, we’ve got your public space covered.

Public Space

When it comes to hospitality interiors, authenticity and locality are essential in creating a memorable experience for guests as customers are seeking a more personalised touch in their surroundings.

From pubs, clubs and restaurants to hotels and guestrooms, the design for these spaces must find a balance between beauty, functionality, durability and atmosphere. To be authentic, something has to not only look good, but it must be unique and designed for that particular space. With many hospitality spaces opting for a striking custom flooring solution, let our in-house team of textile designers help you achieve your vision in creating an immersive guest experience. Or let us help you get started with our large range of designs and standard stocked products.

Hospitality

With populations still driving demand for inner city living, more people are looking to multi-residential apartments for a home or investment.

Often a multitude of flooring solutions are required for these apartments and vertical villages. These properties need to be a quiet sanctuary for occupants and provide insulation from neighbouring dwellings. 

From carpets that are soft and rich in texture to elegant hard flooring options that invite character and warmth, we have you covered.

Multi Residential

Design in education plays a big role in student and staff well being. Flooring can facilitate both collaborative or focused spaces, and can create improved performance and productivity. From pre-school, K-12 and tertiary alike, our flooring solutions cover all areas of education design, including classrooms, corridors, libraries, common rooms, computer labs, multipurpose spaces and amenities.

Mix and match different flooring types and colours to create designated zones, direct flow of foot traffic, or simply incorporate school branding with our custom capabilities. Presenting practical features like acoustic performance, comfort, low VOCs and safety underfoot, our education flooring solutions include Declare™ Red List Free, Australian made products for a healthier, locally sourced option.

Education

Today, the case for patient ease and comfort as a measurable factor in speedier recovery times has been well and truly established, giving architects and designers the opportunity to create beautiful, practical and highly functional healthcare interiors.

Taking design cues from hospitality and home spaces, healthcare environments are increasingly places of residential familiarity. Rooms are modelled on patient’s emotional wellbeing, privacy and comfort.

Without compromising on form or function, see our range of healthcare flooring solutions below.

Healthcare

With an aging population, assisted living facilities and senior living communities are on the rise. Designing a long-term living facility to look after our older loved ones involves striking a careful balance of connecting function and practicality with a beautiful, homely, familiar feel.

Our flooring solutions are durable, safe and sustainable, featuring the perfect level slip resistance without compromising on cleanability.

<h3>The Natural Performer</h3>You can live worry free with this soft, high-performing triexta carpet that is ideal for busy family households. Constructed with high performing and partially renewably sourced materials, triexta offers exceptional stain, soil, wear and fade resistance. It is also incredibly soft and cleans with just water.

<h3>Invest Wisely in Your Home</h3>
Your carpet represents a substantial investment and you want it to look good for years to come. Most Triexta carpets are rated "residential extra heavy duty including stairs" so are ideal for heavy traffic areas.

<h3>Ultra-Soft</h3>
Ultra-soft technology brings a new level of comfort to your floor. Our Triexta ultra soft fibres provide exquisite textures, modern colours and quality construction. The soft feel is achieved by adding more individual filaments in each triexta fibre. Run your hands through the exceptionally soft fibres and feel the difference.

<h3>Stain and Soil Protection</h3>
Superior stain protection, built into every fibre so it never wears off. Cold water removes most household food and beverage spills.

We love all our carpets and know we shouldn’t have favourites… but with superior built-in stain resistance, simple cleaning with just water, protection from pet mishaps, wonderful softness and an amazing range of colours, Triexta by Redbook (formerly Redbook Green) is the top performer across the board making it perfect for busy family homes.

<h3>Simply clean with water</h3>
Triexta carpets have permanent stain resistance built into the core of each triexta fibre that will never wear or wash off. This means tough spills like red wine, tomato sauce and pet mishaps can be removed with just water. <a href="https://www.redbookcarpets.com/features/cleans-with-just-water">Learn More</a>

<h3>Pet friendly carpet</h3>
Pets play a big role in our daily lives, and one of the biggest considerations for pet-owners is finding the right flooring. Built-in stain resistance protects pet mishaps from penetrating the fibre, along with an extra durable fibre structure and superior softness makes triexta carpets ideal for homes with pets. <a href="https://www.redbookcarpets.com/features/pet-friendly">Learn More</a>

<h3>Wonderfully Soft</h3>
With the superior combination of softness and durability, triexta carpet will withstand the most demanding household environments and retain its beautiful look and feel over time. Unlike other fibres, triexta has a unique kinked molecular structure, this means it'll continue to bounce back into shape after vacuuming and years of foot traffic.<a href="https://www.redbookcarpets.com/features/wonderfully-soft">Learn More</a>
