Major Frequency 2.0 represents a refined evolution and progression of the collection initially introduced by Milliken in 2020. The floor plank collection is designed and manufactured in-house from the company’s UK HQ in Wigan. Despite a limited launch during the year of lockdown Major Frequency has proved to be a global bestseller.
The original colour range has been substantially broadened to now include 25 shades, incorporating new neutrals as well as an array of contemporary pastels.
Major Frequency 2.0 is made from Thrive Matter Yarn Universal Fibers® Introduces Thrive® matter a high-performance nylon yarn with a net positive climate impact, made primarily from recycled materials and recognised as one of the lowest carbon footprint nylon fibres in the world. To further reduce the environmental footprint of the collection 50% of all materials used are sourced close to Milliken’s Wigan factory.
As well as the sustainability benefits Major Frequency 2.0 offers enhanced acoustic performance through the use of WellBAC Comfort cushion backing, carpet that lasts longer (15 year warranty) and adhesive free installation with Milliken’s patented TractionBack® 2.0 — glue free installation system (available on request) for improved IAQ and ease of reuse.
One new design ‘Distortion’ forms the basis of the whole collection, but can be used in a wide variety of ways to markedly different effects. It expresses a slightly larger yet more diluted flow within positive and negative space. It amplifies texture to bring an additional sensory element to a space - bringing energy and flow across the floor.
As with all Milliken flooring collections, sustainability and wellbeing form the starting point when it comes to choice of materials and the manufacturing process. Milliken supports the advancement of a circular economy, using less new raw materials, creating less waste, and focusing on increasing recycled materials in flooring products.
