Ecore is already widely specified in performance-led spaces internationally, its unique combination of rubber performance bases and refined surface layers delivering tangible benefits in commercial interiors, from reduced noise and vibration to energy restitution for enhanced user comfort.

The launch of ECOsurfaces takes it a step further, combining Ecore’s precision engineering with exceptional aesthetics to offer architects and designers a new option for commercial projects where design, comfort and performance must work in harmony.

“ECOsurfaces’ extensive palette of colours, textures and finishes gives architects and designers unparalleled scope to bring their visions to life, creating truly distinctive spaces without any compromise in technical performance or user experience,” said John Halls, Physical managing director.

“This is Ecore’s most design-focused range to date, developed to meet the creative expectations of architects and designers while embedding superior performance, durability, comfort and acoustic control directly into the structure of the floor.”

Sustainability is also fundamental to the ECOsurfaces proposition, with Ecore reclaiming and upcycling waste streams across all its manufacturing processes – particularly rubber, where 430 million pounds (195 million kilos) is reclaimed every year.

Bo Barber, CGO at Ecore, confirmed: “ECOsurfaces enhances the experience of those who occupy a space while supporting the creative ambition of those who shape it and helping protect our planet at the same time. This is sustainable luxury, created for designers, by designers.”

He added: “We are delighted to bring ECOsurfaces to the UK, Ireland and Channel Islands in partnership with Physical, ensuring architects and designers have access not only to the market-leading technology and aesthetics of this portfolio, but also to Physical’s specialist technical guidance, specification support and delivery capability.”

Physical will be exhibiting at the Surfaces Design Show in London on 3–5 February, offering architects and designers the opportunity to explore ECOsurfaces first-hand and discuss specification opportunities across a wide range of commercial projects – from hotels and hospitality spaces to educational environments, hospitals, workplaces, gyms, wellness facilities and more.

ECOsurfaces has already been installed throughout the new JHT European Training Centre and Showroom in Reading, just 45 minutes from central London, 30 minutes from Heathrow airport, close to Reading train station and minutes from the M4. It is open to architects, designers and consultants wishing to see, feel and experience the flooring first‑hand.
