editor’s note
8
So it had been years since I’d traveled to the
lively metropolis of London when I found
myself trekking down the underground stairs
to catch the “tube” in order to meet some
old friends for a late dinner. Being from
the States, I find myself in awe of just how
simple mass transit in the bustling city can
be. I don’t know that I’ve ever really stressed
about how to get from point A to point B.
If you think about it, without color, the map
of the London underground could have ended
up as a spaghetti-like index of monochromatic
lines and text. But, with a simple infusion
of bright color, what was originally intended
as a strictly utilitarian diagram of one of
the world’s busiest transit systems is now
a world-renowned icon of the city’s active,
urban culture.
I think that my ease and confidence in my
experiences traveling the “tube” stems from
the elementary way that the mapping graphics
have been laid out. Instead of having to
remember transit line and connection
names, all I have to do is remember to take
the brown line to the grey line to the red line.
Brown, grey, red – it’s that easy. Even the
non-creatives of the world can relate to and
function within a color-coded infrastructure.
Color made all of the difference. Whether it’s
a famous interpretation proudly hanging in
the halls of the Tate Gallery or a tattered
paper guide haphazardly shoved in my back
pocket, the “tube” is a shining example of the
impact of chromatic inspiration.

Index
colorful way forward
Index takes on a new direction as it artfully
defines and guides through complex spaces;
providing necessary details that tell a story
of not only color, but also of destination.
The use of color in wayfinding has long been
a common practice in signage, but the
utilization of directional color within the floor
finish is a more subtle and sophisticated
approach to address circulation, navigation,
and critical work zones.
12
Index takes this practice and delivers an
additional design component that allows for
even greater diversity in your quest to create
an informative, modular flooring plan. With
three neutral bases and sets of four bright
accents to uniquely complement each
neutral, Index will now allow you to utilize
and combine two distinct tile sizes.

Nexus® Modular
Nexus modular products can be installed in
a variety of ways and are performance
engineered to be visually appealing. In
addition, they are designed to accommodate
your long-term flooring budget.
· Manufactured in an ISO 14001:2004 certified facility
· Contains pre-consumer recycled content and
contributes to LEED
· Recyclable through the J+J Flooring Group’s R4 Carpet
Reclamation Program
ProTex® Soil Release
ProTex is a proprietary fluorochemical
technology that is applied and bonded to
the pile fiber to impede soiling and to
improve cleanability. It is standard on all
J+J Flooring Group products.
ProTex works similarly to the technology
used in nonstick cookware by lowering
the surface energy of the fibers which
increases soil release properties. Very
small soil particles cause carpet to
appear dull. Thanks to ProTex, small soil
particles are effectively removed by vacuuming or wet cleaning.

Due to the unique visual characteristics of modular carpets, pattern
repeats and pattern run-off seams may appear more noticeable than
in broadloom carpets. Such visual characteristics do not constitute
a manufacturing defect, and as such, should be considered when
selecting moduar carpet and its installation.
These photographs are representations of the installation for this
modular product. Your modular installation may look different than
these photos depending upon individual tile placement, lighting,
and overall space layout, including furnishings. Final tile placement
and the resulting visual is thus the customer’s, and not J+J Flooring
Group’s responsibility.

ALTERNATIVE ADHESIVES
TileTabs®
TileTabs are high tack adhesive tabs that
connect carpet tiles together, resulting in
a continual layer that gently grips existing
flooring. Escape typical trappings with
TileTabs for a versatile, glue-free installation solution for modular carpet goods. Just
peel, place, & press!
Sentir® Advanced Odor-Blocking Technology
J+J Flooring Group’s Sentir is a selfrenewing treatment designed for the
control or elimination of offensive odors
associated with various indoor
environments, and it is especially beneficial
with odor-bearing spills.
Sentir is not a deodorant that masks
offensive odors. It is a technology that
absorbs and fragments the odor into
component parts over a period of time,
thus destroying the odor itself. Sentir
is not decomposed by this action and is
therefore ready to destroy the next odor
molecule it encounters. The binding
properties of Sentir provide resistance to
multiple cleanings and trafficking,
ensuring durability.
