DESSO Airmaster® Reflection
Beautifully balanced
DESSO AirMaster Reflection has been created with contemporary hospitality and workplaces in mind, inspired by Japanese design philosophy centred around balance, serenity and nature.
As the lines between home, hospitality and workplace continue to blur, this collection — featuring 100% recyclable yarn and backing — has been designed to offer a respite from our frantic and fractured existence with wellbeing built into the fabric of the flooring. The collection features Tarkett’s patented AirMaster technology, offering tangible health benefits by reducing fine dust in the indoor air.
Clears the Air®
The importance of clean air can hardly be overstated. Tiny, invisible par ticles called par ticulate matter (PM), also known as particle pollution or fine dust, play a determining factor in the air quality of hotels and workplaces, and are directly linked to health risks1. Our presence of mind, our sense of well-being and our health in general all benefit gr eatly from air free of pollutants.
Ever since its introduction the AirMaster technology has proven itself in countless workspaces as well as in stringent laboratory tests. The latter demonstrated that DESSO AirMaster® is at least eight times more effective at capturing and retaining fine dust particles than smooth flooring solutions (PM10) and at least four times compared to conventional carpets (PM10)2
Proven effectiveness
The GUI Gold label has been awarded based on the average of 15 repeated tests in which the excellent fine dust capturing performance of DESSO AirMaster was measured, to safeguard that the results are scientifically sound and not just based on a one-time per formance. During some tests, DESSO AirMaster proved to be up to 20 times more effective3 in capturing and retaining fine dust than smooth flooring solutions.
The Gold Plus label was awarded for high performance on three test criteria:
- Suitability for allergy sufferers
- High fine dust binding capacity
- Low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emission properties4
