Beaulieu Canada Voxflor Hardrock Carpet Tile

Hardrock shares the strongest running gear in its family: 28.08 oz/yd2 (952 g/m2) pile weight, 7304 density, 13/64 in (5.0 mm) pile height, a 10-per-inch stitch count, and the cushioned Ecoace Bac Pro backing. That spec earns its heavy-commercial abrasion rating, and the mineral texture adds a practical multiplier: irregular surfaces show soil and wear far more slowly than uniform ones, stretching the visual life of the floor between cleanings.

Solution-dyed regenerated nylon means colorfastness is built into the fiber, with the recycled-content credentials Econyl brings. Installation is glue-down in 1000 mm planks over a flat, dry subfloor, comfortably DIY territory with patience. Metro Vancouver property owners fitting out rental suites and family basements will find the two-colorway, made-to-order program easy to specify and repeat across units; order attic stock in the same run for lot-matched repairs. The permanent caveats: not water-resistant, no wet rooms, and slab moisture testing before any below-grade work.

Hardrock's mineral grain belongs to the same family as honed basalt and rain-darkened granite, materials the regional palette already loves. Its two colorways read as stone rather than fabric, grounding rooms built from concrete, fir, and steel. In a basement lounge or den it delivers rugged calm, the visual equivalent of the coast range on a grey morning, right at home in West Coast interiors.
