Transforming Retail Spaces with Precision Flooring

M&S Glasgow, Retail

Located in the vibrant West End of Glasgow, M&S Byers Road sits amidst the city’s thriving shopping and entertainment district. Known for its bustling atmosphere, the area attracts a diverse clientele, particularly students and young professionals. As a busy retail hub, the store required an upgrade to its flooring system to better reflect its dynamic environment while ensuring it could withstand the high foot traffic.

Universal Flooring Specialists (UFS) was selected to deliver a high-performance flooring solution designed to enhance both the aesthetic appeal and practical performance of this high-use retail space. With the store's unique demands in mind, we brought new life to the store’s interior by installing a premium flooring system that would ensure durability, ease of maintenance, and a seamless integration with the store’s layout and design.

We utilised a combination of Tarkett LVT and Murexin subfloor products to create a robust, slip-resistant, and visually appealing surface that would perform under the pressure of daily use, while ensuring easy maintenance and hygiene compliance.

Enhancing Functionality and Aesthetic Appeal with Precision Flooring Installation

To meet M&S’s specific operational requirements and aesthetic vision, our team executed a thorough assessment and devised a comprehensive flooring solution that incorporated advanced materials. The flooring system was designed to not only meet the practical needs of a high-traffic retail space but also align with M&S’s brand identity, offering a stylish and resilient finish.

  • At UFS, we initiated the project with a meticulous site evaluation to assess the specific operational demands and aesthetic preferences of the retail space. This thorough analysis ensured that we selected and implemented the most suitable flooring system to meet the store's unique requirements.

    Our strategic planning approach guaranteed that all aspects of the flooring solution were aligned with M&S's expectations, both in terms of functionality and visual impact.

  • The success of any high performance flooring system relies on a stable and well-prepared subfloor. We employed Murexin subfloor preparation products, including high-quality moisture barriers and levelling compounds, to create a foundation that is not only smooth and even but also resistant to moisture and movement. This essential step ensured the longevity of the installation and the overall performance of the flooring system.

  • We selected Tarkett LVT flooring due to its exceptional durability and resilience. Known for its ability to withstand high foot traffic and heavy use, Tarkett LVT offers superior resistance to wear, scratches, and stains while maintaining a pristine appearance. The design flexibility of the product also allowed us to seamlessly integrate it into M&S's store aesthetic, providing a visually striking and functional solution.

  • Our skilled team ensured that the installation process was executed with precision, achieving a flawless finish across the entire store. By carefully aligning the flooring with the existing design elements, we created a cohesive and modern look that enhances the customer experience.

    The seamless integration of the flooring system maintained the overall aesthetic harmony of the space, contributing to a welcoming and professional retail environment.

  • Designed for high-traffic environments, the Tarkett LVT and Murexin subfloor system deliver long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance needs. The easy-to-clean surface and resilient nature of the flooring ensure that the retail space remains in optimal condition, requiring only routine care to preserve its aesthetic appeal and functionality.
