Powerbond® Hybrid Carpet

Breathe easier with your choice

Powerbond Cushion RS is the first hybrid carpet flooring CERTIFIED as asthma & allergy friendly® by Allergy Standards Limited in collaboration with the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, helping to create  healthier classrooms, corporate offices, senior living communities and more.

Additionally, with chemically welded seams, its impermeable, closed-cell cushion backing provides a wall-to-wall moisture barrier to help avoid conditions favorable to microbial growth. In testing, 95 percent of allergens were removed effectively with a simple dry vacuuming. 

Future Forward

When your flooring installation can be expected to last for generations, you’re taking big steps towards reducing resources. But when it does come time to change, durable and impermeable Powerbond is part of Tarkett's ReStart® take-back and recycling program.

Powerbond is made with 8­–10% postconsumer recycled materials and, like all Tarkett North America floors, is free of all Six Classes of Harmful Chemicals as defined by the Green Science Policy Institute, including ortho-phthalates, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and antimicrobials.

The floor is the foundation of your interior design—literally and metaphorically. It’s the blank canvas from which something truly remarkable can be built. A well-designed floor exalts your style while fostering a sense of comfort, productivity, collaboration and creativity. By choosing Powerbond as your foundation, you can render a room with improved air quality, reduced noise and enhanced comfort. You’ll also have the freedom to explore a variety of design possibilities that will stand the test of time.

Matchless moisture control

Powerbond’s chemically welded seams create an impermeable wall-to-wall shield, preventing moisture from seeping through to your substrate. This helps avoid conditions favorable to microbial growth so you can maintain healthier environments.

Definition of a classic

Classics are defined as being of the highest quality, serving as a standard for everything that follows. They aren’t just time tested, they’re timeless. And they become more valued over the years.

Developed in 1967, Powerbond® was the first hybrid carpet flooring to combine the best of carpet and resilient sheet. More than 50 years later, there's still nothing else like it in the market—delivering healthier materials, unlimited design potential, impermeable moisture protection and greater durability. After all, like a true classic, performance never goes out of style.
