IOBAC MagTabs® – Reversible fixings for raised metal access flooring
Magnetic on one side and dry-tack on the other, IOBAC MagTabs® securely fix carpet tiles, woven vinyl or Luxury Vinyl Tiles (4mm thickness and above) to metal raised access floors and other magnetically receptive sub-floors.
Unique 2-Dimensional Hold – Tiles are locked together horizontally as with conventional floating floor solutions. Plus, our patented Dual-Grip technology combines dry-tack with magnetism to also deliver exceptional vertical hold to the sub-floor.
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.
Used and/or approved by 16 leading flooring manufacturers, MagTabs® are proven across a wide range of high profile projects.
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 metal raised access flooring 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)
– Woven vinyl tile
Compatible Sub-floors:
– Metal raised access floors
