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

<h3>Adding unmistakable elegance to interior spaces</h3>
The natural beauty of wool stems from the inherent complexity of the fibre itself, evolved to protect sheep, no matter the conditions! That’s why we still wear wool, sleep with wool, insulate with wool and enjoy walking on wool.

Made from the finest quality materials, the natural fibres in our wool carpets are renewable, insulating, luxurious and hypoallergenic.
Made in Australia and New Zealand, our wool broadloom carpets add unmistakable elegance to interior spaces. The natural beauty of wool stems from the inherent complexity of the fibre itself, evolved to protect sheep, no matter the conditions. 

<h3>Finest Quality Natural Fibre</h3> 
Feltex wool carpets are made from the finest natural wool fibres which are renewable and biodegradable.
A renewable material, wool is shorn from sheep every 9-12 months and produced by sheep consuming a totally renewable resource - grass.
As a natural resource, wool fibre is biodegradable. When wool fibre is disposed of, it will naturally decompose in soil in a matter of months or years, slowly releasing valuable nutrients back into the earth.

<h3>Natural Insulation and Humidity Control</h3>
Wool carpet is naturally insulative with humidity control for a comfortable indoor environment, making it cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Wool is a natural hygroscopic insulator. This means your wool carpet can absorb up to 30% - 40% of its weight in moisture without becoming wet to touch. This reduces the dampness in the air, making your home a drier and healthier place to live.
In cold, damp conditions (high relative humidity) moisture is absorbed by wool and heat is given off. In warm dry conditions, moisture is released by wool, resulting in a cooling effect. How well your carpet insulates largely depends on how much air it can trap. 
Because of wool’s natural inbuilt crimp, air is retained in millions of tiny pockets which provide an insulating effect, thus creating a comfortable home environment.

<h3>Luxurious and Hypoallergenic</h3>
Wool carpets are naturally luxurious and hypoallergenic making them both aesthetic and suitable for those with allergies.
Ideal for allergy and asthma sufferers, wool does not promote the growth of bacteria, mould and mildew.This reduces the likelihood of spores, mycotoxins and volatile organic compounds from developing in the home, helping to prevent allergies and respiratory problems.
Wool fibre also deters the growth of dustmites – the most common single cause of asthma.

Godfrey Hirst offers a range of quality vinyl plank flooring designed and made in Belgium.

When it comes to fashion and design, Belgium has always been on the crossroads of Europe, a good place for new ideas. And the same goes for flooring design: Belgian designers keep an open mind, pick up local evolutions really fast and have the ability to transform new tendencies into a future proof flooring offer with wide appeal. Beautiful and realistic design is key, ranging from pure and more pronounced woods to elegant and more distinctive stones. With colour variations from light to dark and everything in between.

The Belgian designed vinyl plank floors also have great functional features, with the latest research and development into wellness, acoustics and performance. The vinyl plank floors have a soft and warm feel, excel in acoustic comfort and come with an improved protective layer that makes them more scratch, stain and slip resistant.

ISO 9001 Quality Management System

Demonstrates Godfrey Hirst ability to consistently provide products that meet customer and regulatory requirements.

Working hard to supply flooring that meets exacting environmentally responsible standards, Godfrey Hirst are delighted to display another globally trusted trademark. We are proud to now have a range of PEFC CoC certified products.

What Does PEFC Do? 
The Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC™) is a leading international non-profit organisation whose mission is to promote sustainable forest management through independent third-party accreditation. Taking local conditions and priorities into consideration, PEFC works to protect forests both locally and globally, forming partnerships with multiple stakeholders around the world to boost their collective impact.

Through the PEFC Chain of Custody (CoC) certification, Responsible Wood (the national governing body for PEFC in Australia) promote best practice throughout the entire supply chain to make certain all products from forests are produced to the highest ecological, cultural, ethical and environmental standards. This allows us to actively track every log from forest to floor, guaranteeing that the PEFC certified timber in these products has been responsibly harvested through PEFC. In providing forest owners of all sizes, with the means to demonstrate their responsible practices, PEFC empowers consumers and companies to buy sustainably.

Why Choose PEFC certified products? 
Responsible forest management is critical for the global environment, population and economy. Along with supplying food, energy and renewable raw materials, forests promote biodiversity by giving habitats and shelter, and provide livelihoods for millions of people worldwide. Key to the cultural identity of local communities, forests mitigate the effects of climate change, capturing and storing carbon to remove volumes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. In fact, even after a tree has been harvested to be used in construction materials or to make furniture, it will continue to store carbon for its useful life.

This third-party verification confirms our commitment to developing healthier interior spaces and green building standards, with the globally trusted PEFC label helping customers confidently choose sustainable flooring.
