2025 Design Awards are Open!
In 2025, we celebrate a milestone that reflects two decades of creativity, innovation, and impact: the 20th anniversary of the Shaw Contract Design Awards. Over the past 20 years, this program has honoured the global design community—not just for the spaces they create, but for the intention and purpose behind them.

Texture Study
Texture Study is designed for wellness from the inside out and is our first carpet tile collection on our PVC-free, bio-based backing, EcoWorx® BIO. Reduce your carbon footprint without sacrificing performance.
EcoWorx BIO stands out due to its remarkably low GWP of under 3. This PVC-free, bio-based carpet tile backing not only reduces the carbon footprint but also maintains high performance and durability. By choosing EcoWorx BIO, businesses can significantly lower their environmental impact without compromising on quality.
Poetic Form
In poetry, form creates rhythm, draws you in and shows you the way. Woven through shape, texture and material. Poetic Form is inspired by poetry seen with the eye and felt with the heart. A collection of 24x24 carpet tiles in three timeless styles that are optimised for low-embodied carbon and carbon neutral.
Art + Science
Selected styles available with a 4 week lead time.
Born from EcoWorx® carpet tile backing, an idea we first launched 25 years ago, the Art + Science collection is Shaw Contract's first PVC-free, fully recyclable EcoWorx™ Resilient. As sustainable as it is beautiful and designed for performance in all commercial spaces. Art + Science – a cycle completing itself.
