Tessera Teviot

32-colour low loop pile carpet tiles in Aquafil polyamide at 5.7mm.

Forbo Tessera Teviot carpet tiles installed

Teviot shares Layout's construction — low loop pile, 100% Aquafil polyamide, 520 g/m², 5.7mm, 62% recycled — and its 32-colour palette, but takes the colour in a different direction: cooler, more tonal, with names drawn from landscape rather than material.

23 dB impact sound reduction, Class 33 heavy commercial, continuous castor chair rating. At 5.7mm it is one of the slimmer tiles in the range, which helps at thresholds and over access floors.

32 colourways is enough to deliver an entire scheme — field, accent and wayfinding — from a single product code, which keeps reordering and attic stock simple for the next fifteen years.

Supply & fit

Fitting Teviot in the UK

DCTUK’s Forbo fitting service covers site survey and subfloor moisture testing, latex screeding and preparation, uplift and recycling of existing floorcoverings, and installation by employed fitting teams — out of hours and in phases where a building has to stay open. Free survey within 72 hours, fixed pricing, and a 12 month fitting warranty.

Because Teviot is a tile, damaged units can be lifted and replaced individually years into the building’s life. Keep one to two boxes per colourway from the original production batch as attic stock.
