At RJ, we believe campuses are where futures are built, from vibrant lecture halls to serene libraries and cozy residence halls, and we provide flooring that's as inspiring as it is functional.

Design plays a larger role in higher education than most settings, so we offer contemporary, flexible solutions that support every aspect of student life while focusing on long-term performance.

College & University Flooring — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the toughest commercial flooring for higher education?
University and college campuses require flooring that performs across very different environments — high-traffic lecture halls, busy dining commons, quiet libraries, and active recreation centers. The most durable options for high-traffic campus spaces are commercial LVT, sheet vinyl, and rubber flooring. For lecture halls and libraries, acoustic carpet tile is frequently specified to reduce noise transmission.
Which commercial flooring options are best for university libraries?
The best flooring for university libraries and study areas is acoustic-rated carpet tile or luxury vinyl tile (LVT). Carpet tile reduces ambient noise, supports quiet study environments, and is easy to replace in sections if damaged. LVT works well in areas where moisture or heavy traffic is a concern.
What flooring is best for university dining halls and food courts?
University dining halls and food courts require spill-resistant, slip-resistant flooring that withstands high daily cover counts and frequent cleaning. Sheet vinyl, LVT, and ceramic tile with slip-resistant finishes are the most common choices. LEED-qualifying materials are available for campuses pursuing green building credits.
How is flooring installation coordinated on an active university campus?
Flooring installation on active university campuses is phased around the academic calendar — major work is scheduled during summer sessions, winter break, or spring recess. RJ Inc. coordinates directly with campus facilities departments to minimize disruption to classes, dining operations, and student housing.
Can university flooring projects earn LEED credits?
LEED points for flooring can be earned through materials with recycled content, low-VOC adhesives and finishes, and products with third-party environmental certifications such as FloorScore or Declare. RJ Inc. can specify and source LEED-qualifying flooring materials for UC, CSU, and private campus projects in Northern California.
