The humble garage has come a long way. For many Kiwi homes, it’s no longer just a place to park the car – it’s a workshop, a home gym, extra storage, or a space that needs to work just as hard as the rest of the house.
If you’re looking to make your garage warmer, more comfortable and easier to live with, garage carpet is a smart, practical upgrade.
Why choose garage carpet?
Unlike bare concrete, garage carpet is designed specifically for high-use, hardworking spaces. It adds comfort without compromising on durability, making it ideal for busy households and practical setups.
Key benefits include:
-
Hard-wearing and durable – built to handle daily wear and tear
-
Stain-proof and fade-resistant – great for garages, workshops and utility areas
-
Warm underfoot – noticeably more comfortable than concrete
-
Low maintenance – easy to clean and keep looking tidy
-
Perfect for high-use spaces – practical without feeling industrial

-

Workshops
