Creating a Design Space Using LVT
This CPD focuses on how effective use of luxury vinyl tile (LVT) can help transform an ordinary area into an inspiring design space. It covers the different designs that can be created by exploring the wealth of laying patterns available, as well as the impact of zoning, and how to incorporate use of LVT into commercial schemes. Referencing product specification, appearance, and specific considerations such as sustainability and performance, it also covers how LVT can be a practical, problem-solving solution.

By the end of this CPD delegates should:
1. Understand the features and benefits of luxury vinyl tile (LVT).
2. Know how to use laying patterns.
3. Know how to create bespoke designs.
4. Know how to use zoning, wayfinding and breakout areas.
5. Understand design considerations and how to meet regulations.

Specifying Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT) in Commercial Environments
Given that there are many types of flooring available, it is imperative to select the option that meets all necessary legislative requirements, while also ensuring it has a big visual impact on the indoor environment.

Bearing these factors in mind, this CPD module fully explains the benefits of specifying luxury vinyl tiles (LVT) in commercial environments. The module includes: a look at the properties and benefits of a multi-performance system; how LVT is manufactured; why LVT is suitable for commercial specification; technical benefits of LVT (vs other types of flooring); how to install and maintain LVT; technical standards; and sector specific features and benefits.

By the end of this CPD seminar, delegate ought to:
1. Understand the properties and benefits of LVT as a multi-performance system.
2. Have learnt how LVT is manufactured and why it is suitable for commercial specification.
3. Understand the technical benefits of LVT versus other types of flooring.
4. Know how to install and maintain LVT.
5. Understand the features and benefits of LVT in relation to specific sectors (e.g Office, Retail, H&L, Education).
