The Cathedral of Saint Paul is located on historic Summit Hill overlooking downtown Saint Paul, Minnesota and the surrounding Mississippi River. Built over 100 years ago, this stunning Beaux Arts French architectural marvel was inspired by the Sacre-Coeur Basilica and the great churches of Paris and France. St. Paul Linoleum & Carpet Company and Tarkett were selected to replace the floor covering in the Sacristy. The design intent was to replicate the artistic appearance of the original floor. Due to its design flexibility, acoustical value, slip resistance and underfoot comfort, the decision was made to use Tarkett’s Prima Rubber Flooring. However, to recreate the original design, it was necessary to manufacture the product in custom colors, sizes and thickness. The floor is installed in a checkerboard pattern, both at a 45-degreediagonal and in a straight checkerboard .It has a matching border of varying widths that butt into 4”–8” wide green marble which borders and intersects the space throughout. As an added design element, Tarket treplicated the Archdiocese of Saint Paul & Minneapolis Coat of Arms in a coordinating tile which was inset into the field tile. The attention to detail in the design, manufacturing, and installation is reminiscent of an era of true craftsmanship. It is the hope of all those involved that this project will survive the next 100 years.

When one of the area’s largest, fastest growing church organizations wanted to create a welcoming space, they turned to St Paul Lino. Our project planners built a relationship with their leadership team, listened to their needs, and applied their expertise to present options to work with the planned décor. Together they created an optimal mix of colors and patterns within our commercial carpeting and resilient flooring lines that will maintain its color and look sharp up for years to come. The result is a space that generates warmth and welcome using dynamic designs for a lively, vibrant look and feel. 

Wellness from the ground up. We are pleased to make a mark on Minnesota’s only physician-owned and clinician led child and adolescent psychiatric hospital. With minimal disruption, our project planners and installers created a calming environment for employees and patients alike. From the lobby to the cafeteria, we used a blend of commercial carpeting and resilient flooring, such as sheet vinyl and composition tile, to produce a great look and feel that meets the needs of the space and holds its beauty. To ensure continuous access for patients and staff, our project team worked with hospital management to develop a phased plan that facilitated productivity and patient access. The relaxing colors and patterns of the carpeting dovetail nicely with the durability and beauty of our flooring for an updated look that will last. Book a consultation now to see how we can enhance your space with an array of commercial carpet, resilient flooring materials, and other options while safeguarding your budget. 

To whom do you turn when you’re the largest hospital in the Twin Cities east metro area and need new flooring? We partnered with United Hospital to install quality products that help maintain standards for sterility and support their mission to create the most comfortable, stress-free health care experience possible. Our installers worked to support heavy staff and patient traffic through critical areas while carefully removing and replacing materials. In select operating rooms, corridors, and other key areas we use our heat-formable, damage-resistant wall cladding systems for a continuous, smooth, water- and stain-resistant surface free of gaps or grout. Our composition tile, sheet vinyl, and rubber flooring is in use in other high-traffic areas for a clean, professional look that will endure for years. Specially selected commercial carpeting graces lobbies, offices, administrative areas, and public spaces to generate welcoming, relaxing spaces using durable colors, patterns, and materials. Serving over 200,000 patients each year, United Hospital is a model for reducing healthcare associated infections and we are proud to be a part of the equation.
