Carpet Tiles & Carpet - Everything Old Is New Again

Feb. 11, 2011 - PRLog -- Michael Hensler, owner of McMats Recycled N New Commercial Carpets & Carpet Tiles is a self confessed scavenger. “I started my business scrounging around in junkyards and skips finding products that were completely reusable but being thrown out for no apparent reason. I thought, why send this stuff to landfill when somebody else could use it”. He then started selling carpet mats and carpet remnants for a fraction of the cost at his local market. 20 years on, McMats Recycled Commercial Carpets & Carpet Tiles is the largest supplier of reusable commercial carpet and carpet tiles in the Southern Hemisphere. Visit http://www.mcmatsrecycledcarpets.com.au for detailed information about their products and prices.

McMats Carpets source their carpet tiles and carpet from high rise office blocks in and around Melbourne’s CBD. The carpet tiles and carpet are commercial (industrial) quality, predominantly wool, clean and stain free. “Often new carpet tiles and carpet are replaced because of new tenancies, branding, refurbishment or simply because companies have picked the wrong colour. There can often be nothing wrong with the original product”, says Michael.

What would otherwise head straight to landfill, McMats team take back to their factory, select the cream of the crop and then on sell at a discount price. Michael maintains that you can save up to 60% off new carpet prices and often walk away with a better quality floor covering as McMats stock is predominantly wool and commercial grade.

Their reusable products are not only cost effective, they are environmentally friendly and McMats Carpets offer a full installation service, from delivery, cutting, laying and cleaning. Michael says customers should “BYO your own floor plan and provide measurements so we can quote correctly”. McMats has installed their reusable commercial carpet tiles and commercial carpet in hundreds of schools Australia wide, dozens of churches, and countless numbers of gyms, kindergartens, motels, nightclubs, investment properties, homes, offices, caravans, annexes and even dog kennels. “It doesn’t matter how big or small your job is, we will supply a cost efficient and long lasting floor covering to fit your needs and make sure you walk away with a big grin on your face”, says Michael.

McMats approach is based on traditional service; old school values, friendliness, honesty and a tongue in cheek ‘Aussie’ attitude. (Be warned, you are in for a ride when you visit their factory). Make sure you check out Michael’s vege garden, which is growing out of reusable underlay. He has used his underfelt for worm blankets, garden mulch and as blankets in animal baskets, as oil mats for garages and factories and as sound insulation in studios.

Michael’s main focus for this year is adding to his already large stock of carpet tiles and on-selling at an affordable price to the commercial and domestic market. Carpet Tiles are an excellent floor covering because you lay them yourself, replace an individual carpet tile if they get stained or damaged and you can mix and match colours”.

Recently he has had some quirky videos produced showing off some of the things you can do with carpet tiles and also offering customers his own unique carpet counselling tips. To watch visit their You Tube channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/mcmatsrecycledcarpet?feature=...
