Bathgate Flooring x Tier Global: The Flexible Flooring Solution
Working with Tier Global: The Power of Magnetised Raised Access Flooring
Today’s workspaces require the structural integrity to manage complex underfloor services, combined with the flexibility to adapt and the aesthetics to impress. At Bathgate Flooring, we know that delivering this dual mandate requires collaboration.
That is why we are proud of our long-standing partnership with Tier Global, the innovators behind the revolutionary TIERdrylay™ magnetised flooring system.
The Perfect Match: Foundation and Finish
As a leading independent manufacturer of raised access flooring (RAF), Bathgate Flooring engineers the precision subfloor. Whether specifying our low-carbon BGM600G panels or our heavy-grade systems, we provide the robust, flat, and stable metal base.
Tier Global takes over at the surface. They supply the bespoke TIERdrylay™ products, including premium wood, porcelain, or natural stone panels backed with a strontium ferrite magnetic sheet. These architectural finishes adhere securely and directly to the top of our metal RAF panels, creating a seamless, high-end floor without a single drop of glue.
Why Choose a Magnetised Flooring System?
Our collaboration with Tier Global unlocks significant advantages for architects, specifiers, and facilities managers:
- Up to 90% Faster Installation: By eliminating fixings, wet adhesives, and grout, the dry-lay system drastically reduces the critical path on-site and labour costs. Because there is no drying time, the floor can be used immediately after installation.
- Unrestricted Void Access: Traditional stone or wood finishes usually render the underfloor void inaccessible. The TIERdrylay™ system changes this entirely. Any individual plank or tile can be effortlessly lifted to reach air-conditioning, electrical, or data cabling, and seamlessly returned without degrading joints or seams.
- Bespoke Aesthetics: Designers no longer have to compromise on style for the sake of practicality. The system is compatible with an exceptional range of high-quality materials, including European oak engineered wood, porcelain, and natural stone.
- Circular and Sustainable: Damaged tiles can be instantly replaced, and the entire floor can be lifted, relocated, and reused by the leaseholder if they move buildings. Additionally, these products can be integrated with acoustic layers to reduce impact sound while maintaining the system’s green credentials.
Building the Future Together
Quality materials are only half the job; the right partnerships make the vision a reality. By combining Bathgate Flooring’s robust raised access floors with Tier Global’s bespoke magnetic finishes, we provide a complete, future-proof commercial flooring solution.
