CBS 1D-Tab™ – Reversible floor fixings that protect high value sub-floors
Single-sided dry adhesive tab used for cleanly fixing and uplifting carpet tiles, woven vinyl or Luxury Vinyl Tiles (4mm thickness and above) from high value and precious sub-floors.
Protection of high value sub-floor assets – For use on high value sub-floors including marble, wood and mosaic, and on floors in heritage and preservation sites.
Can also be used as a temporary overlay system.
One Dimensional Hold – The floor tiles are held together horizontally as per conventional floating floor solutions, with the subfloor completely protected from any contamination.
Hard to shift, Easy to lift – Tiles can be uplifted cleanly and easily without damaging the sub-floor or flooring itself, supporting easier reuse and recycling and protecting building assets.
Trusted performance – Incorporates the same proven chemistry as our IOBAC MagTabs® which is used and/or approved by 16 leading flooring manufacturers, and proven across a wide range of high profile projects.
Industry Recognition
ENHANCED CIRCULARITY
– Flooring is more easily reused or recycled via manufacturer take-back schemes, eliminating landfill waste
– Material reuse contributes towards credits in sustainability assessment certifications such as BREEAM, SKA ratings and LEED – Embodied carbon reduced by up to 80% – independent testing demonstrates a lower upfront embodied
carbon vs adhesive, plus potential additional savings in Module D through material reuse
SITE EFFICIENCY
– Quick, odour-free installation with no drying/waiting time required – wet trades eliminated – More efficient programming as trades can work around each other more effectively
– Flooring can be trafficked immediately, minimising disruption to building operations
– VOCs associated with adhesive-based methods eliminated – improved Indoor Air Quality for contractors and occupants
ECONOMIC VALUE
– Asset value of sub-floor retained – Damage, mess, cleaning and remediation costs in between leases eliminated (typically £9-15 per sqm)
– Significantly reduced disposal and dilapidation costs – Material efficiency: 4% coverage vs full-spread materials
– Whole life cost comparison show installation with reversible fixings to be 40% less than traditional methods
DESIGN FLEXIBILITY
– Universally compatible across brands and flooring types – not limited to one type
– Used and/or approved by 16 leading flooring manufacturers of carpet tile, LVT and woven vinyl tile – Seamlessly combine different flooring types and brands in the same space
– Easily deconstruct and repurpose spaces
Compatible Floor Covering Types:
– Carpet tile
– Luxury Vinyl Tile (4mm thickness and above)
