Carpet tiles do a lot of quiet work in interior spaces. They set the tone of a room, soften its acoustics, and absorb years of foot traffic without showing the strain. BLOQ, a carpet tile maker from the Netherlands, has built its reputation on getting all that right at once, and its selection can now be found as a public catalog.
Architects and interior designers can integrate the solutions directly into their project layouts, explore colourways and patterns in combination, and evaluate how the flooring will perform visually within a space before final decisions are made.
One factory, start to finish
BLOQ is a carpet manufacturer based in Genemuiden, known for combining a strong design direction with high technical performance. A key part of its approach is that much of the production takes place in one location. The company operates its own yarn production alongside a vertically integrated process for tufted and non-woven floor coverings. The process is then closely coordinated and consistently managed.
Every tile is developed for the commercial market and the demands that come with it, with performance and quality considered throughout the manufacturing process.
Quietly intelligent
In pCon, BLOQ’s range is available as a public catalog, giving direct access to its full product data. Each carpet tile is provided as a digital object designed for planning, allowing users to work with accurate colors, material definitions, and other architectural information directly within their projects.
Placing a tile into a layout makes it possible to compare different patterns side by side or test colourways. It is a practical way to work through flooring ideas from the start, whether sketching a concept or preparing a final specification for a client.
The catalog can be accessed across browsers and mobiles. It is also integrated into CAD platforms such as pCon.planner and other compatible systems. This ensures the content can move easily between different stages of the design process.
Tiles with character
The Dutch company organizes its tiles into distinct collections, each developed around a clear design idea. Some remain quiet and tonal, drawing inspiration from natural surfaces, while others take a more graphic direction with bold patterning and confident use of color. Together, they offer designers the flexibility to keep interiors subtle or move them towards a more expressive character.
A few highlights from the collections :
- The Workplace: Tradition, Connexion and Rhythm form a collection shaped around office environments, with an emphasis on structure, clarity and functional workspace design
- The Binary: Flow, Balance, Renegade, Sculpture and Grain explore contrast through light and dark pairings, bringing depth and visual tension to interior layouts.
- The Textured: Positive, Negative and Canvas offer soft, coarsely woven fabrics with a calm, surface-driven character
- The Create: Medium, Small and Large are available in six nature-inspired colours, supporting flexible and expressive spatial compositions
- The Relief: Solace is a series of surface designs inspired by natural textures such as moss, bark, earth and sea surfaces, adding subtle material depth underfoot
- The Trinity: Assembly, Sensity and Unity bring together sustainable materials, comfort and acoustic benefits
- The Legend: Glory, Eternity, Majesty and Fantasy capture the beauty of time and texture, combining harmonious transitions and rich tones for contemporary interiors
Design flexibility extends beyond colour and pattern. Alongside the traditional square format, BLOQ offers Hexagon and Trapeze tiles that can be combined across most collections, opening up additional possibilities for customised layouts and distinctive floor designs.
Looks good, works harder
A floor in a busy building has to do more than look good. The carpet tiles are designed for demanding environments. They hold a Class 33 rating under EN 1307, resist the wear caused by rolling office chairs, and maintain their color over time. They also contribute to a more comfortable interior by absorbing sound and reducing footfall noise, while meeting rigorous fire safety requirements.
Installation is equally practical. Thanks to a magnetic, glue-free system for raised floors, individual tiles can be removed when a space is changed, making them easier to reuse or recycle. This focus on performance, flexibility and responsible material use reflects BLOQ’s ongoing commitment to improving both product quality and environmental impact.
A lighter footprint
Sustainability is embedded in the design of the collections from the start. Each carpet tile contains, on average, around 45% recycled material. Solution-dyed nylon yarn and recovered backing further reduce resource use, while packaging is made from fully reprocessed cardboard. Production is powered by green electricity, including energy generated by on-site wind turbines.
Environmental performance is independently verified through recognised certifications. Manufacturing is certified to ISO 9001:2015, and products are supported by Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). They also meet key indoor air quality and emissions standards, including GUT, CRI Green Label Plus, REACH, and M1. These credentials allow contribution to leading sustainability frameworks such as BREEAM, LEED, and HQE.
At end of life, tiles can be cleaned for reuse or recycled, supporting a more circular flooring system.
A floor quietly sets the tone for an interior, shaping how a space looks, feels, and performs. It can blend into the background or become a defining design element, depending on material, colour, and pattern. Beyond aesthetics, it also affects acoustics, comfort, and the overall spatial experience.
With BLOQ’s collections available in pCon, flooring can be integrated into the design process from an early stage. The tiles can be explored and applied directly within project layouts, supporting both creative freedom and long-term performance.
