Belgotex Terranova: Beautiful by Design, Responsible by Nature

The modern office has evolved far beyond rows of desks and predictable grey carpeting. Belgotex Terranova demonstrates how today’s commercial interiors are designed to inspire collaboration, encourage wellbeing and adapt effortlessly to changing ways of working. Increasingly, the floor has become one of the most influential design elements, quietly defining how a space functions while making a powerful visual statement.

Recognising this shift, Belgotex has introduced Terranova, a sophisticated collection of modular carpet tiles that brings together contemporary design, outstanding performance and meaningful sustainability. Inspired by the rich textures and colours of the African landscape, Terranova has been created for commercial environments where beauty, flexibility and environmental responsibility are equally important.

Designing Spaces Through Flooring

Open-plan offices are rapidly giving way to thoughtfully planned environments that include collaborative hubs, quiet focus areas, informal lounges and executive meeting spaces. Rather than relying on physical walls, designers are increasingly using flooring to create visual boundaries and guide movement throughout a workplace.

Terranova embraces this approach through its versatile 50 cm × 50 cm modular tile format. The collection encourages creative layouts by allowing colourways to be combined to define different functional areas. Rich, organic shades can transform an entrance into a welcoming arrival space, while warmer earth-inspired tones naturally establish relaxed collaboration zones. As workplaces continue to evolve, the modular format also makes future reconfiguration remarkably simple, allowing individual tiles to be replaced without disrupting the entire floor.

Inspired by Nature

Biophilic design continues to shape commercial interiors as businesses seek to create healthier, more restorative workplaces. Natural textures, earthy palettes and materials inspired by the outdoors have become essential elements of contemporary office design.

Terranova reflects this philosophy through every detail. Each colourway draws inspiration from the African landscape, from the mineral warmth of Goldstone and the mossy richness of Willow Brook to the understated elegance of Lichen Mist and the dramatic depth of Aged Bark.

Its innovative multi-high-low-loop construction combines three complementary tones of Solution Dyed Nylon yarn within every tile, creating subtle movement across the surface. As light shifts throughout the day, the flooring reveals changing depth and texture, bringing a natural vitality to interior spaces.

Creating Quieter, More Comfortable Workplaces

As hybrid working becomes firmly established, acoustic performance has become a critical consideration for workplace design. Open-plan offices must support concentration while accommodating constant meetings, video calls and collaborative discussions.

Terranova addresses this challenge with impressive acoustic credentials. The collection delivers a 40% improvement in sound absorption, helping to reduce echo and ambient noise within a room, while providing a 30% improvement in impact sound insulation, reducing sound transmission between floors.

Combined with Belgotex’s innovative ProBac backing system, the result is a quieter, calmer environment that enhances both comfort and productivity.

Sustainability Built Into Every Tile

Environmental responsibility is no longer an optional consideration in commercial specification. Architects, developers and designers increasingly prioritise products that support green building standards and contribute to a lower environmental impact.

Terranova has been designed with sustainability at its core. The Solution Dyed Nylon yarn contains 75% recycled content, while the advanced ProBac backing is manufactured using 75% recycled polyester, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional bitumen-backed carpet tiles.

For projects pursuing environmental certification, Terranova also carries an impressive list of independent credentials, including LCA Rate Scheme, PHD Verified, GreenTag Certified and Platinum Tag Certified.

A Collection Designed for Creativity

One of Terranova’s greatest strengths lies in the way its 25 carefully curated colourways work together, giving designers exceptional creative freedom.

Reception areas can make a memorable first impression by combining Willow Brook and Lake Blue in a striking checkerboard layout. Collaborative spaces are enriched through the warm mineral pairing of Goldstone and Stone Creek, while quiet work areas benefit from the calming presence of Lichen Mist and Blue Lustre. Executive offices and boardrooms take on an understated sense of luxury through the sophisticated pairing of Dusk Birch and Aged Bark.

Belgotex recommends a tessellated quarter-turn installation to maximise texture and visual depth, allowing every project to achieve a distinctive finish.

Built for Demanding Commercial Environments

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, Terranova has been engineered to perform in high-traffic commercial settings.

With a Class 33 Heavy Commercial rating, a 15-year limited commercial warranty, excellent fire performance and outstanding acoustic properties, the collection delivers durability alongside design flexibility.
