Philadelphia Commercial Emphatic II 36 12 ft Heavier-Weight Solid-Color Commercial Broadloom Carpet

Philadelphia Commercial Emphatic II 36 (style #54256) is the heavier-weight, solid-color commercial broadloom carpet in the Emphatic II family, sold in 12 ft rolls for spaces that take more foot traffic. It keeps the family's large color card, 62 coordinated shades from pale golds to navies, greens, reds and plums, so a designer can hold an exact color through lobbies and corridors. Philadelphia Commercial produces it in the USA from 100% BCF nylon. Pair it with Emphatic II 30 in lighter-use rooms.

Best for: Hotel lobbies and main corridors, healthcare common areas, houses of worship, assisted living hallways, office entries and other heavier-traffic rooms that need a specific solid color.

Installation

Emphatic II 36 ships as 12 ft broadloom. Solid-color carpet highlights shading and seams under raking light, so plan seams parallel to the main line of travel, keep every drop running in the same direction and avoid cross seams at lobby entrances. When Emphatic II 36 continues into rooms carpeted with Emphatic II 30 in the same color, place the change at a doorway threshold. The Emphatic II 36 spec sheet sets out the approved installation method.

Specifier Tips

In a hotel, use Emphatic II 36 in Newport 56461 or Coffee Bean 56731 for the lobby and guest corridors, then switch to Emphatic II 30 in the same number inside guest rooms. In healthcare, mid-depth neutrals like Smokey 56742 or Gray Hare 56510 keep the floor calm and even. Reserve bright golds such as Sunflower 56222 for borders or accents rather than full corridors.
