Moduleo Moods Puts SL Flooring in a Good Mood
May 14, 2025
SL Flooring is a well-established Tamworth-based flooring business that provides residential and commercial customers with the supply and installation of a wide range of flooring options from established brands. With a showroom featuring vinyl floors from different suppliers, customers always make a beeline straight to the Moduleo stand.
Proprietor Shane Lynch says: “We have been trading since 2013, and we now have a team of 10 helping our customers and installing floors around the area. We’re mostly known for our high-end LVT work, so Moduleo Moods is a great product for us, as it allows our customers to be creative and achieve a really stunning looking floor.”
Not only do the Moduleo Moods and Moduleo Roots collections keep SL Flooring’s customers happy from a design point of view, but the made in Belgium quality and refinement is also something Shane is keen to point out:
“Personally, Moduleo has always been one of my favourite LVT products to fit. The floor has excellent quality and is by far one of the homeliest looking brands on the market – Moduleo gives our customers a chance to have their dream floor without breaking the bank.”

As the foundation of any interior, flooring plays a vital role in creating calm, uplifting spaces. Our latest article explores how leading brands blend natural aesthetics with modern performance, so no matter what your style, there are numerous options for both indoor and outdoor home décor.
It’s no secret that one of the biggest issues facing the UK flooring industry is the shortage of skilled labour, and this is a problem that’s only likely to get worse as the older generation hangs up its tools and finds fewer and fewer young hands willing to take up the trade. While the overall declining interest in practical trades is a matter to be addressed by all stakeholders – particularly at a Government level – flooring manufacturers and specialised training outfits have long been playing their parts to raise standards within the industry.
Greendale Carpets are the longest established buying group in the UK, having been formed in 1962. The group is a member owned cooperative run on a not-for-profit basis with any surplus at the end of the financial year being put back into the group for the sole benefit of the member.
The Associated Carpet Group held its Platinum Supplier Show this past 14-15 March, celebrating its 40th anniversary at the illustrious Hilton Hotel at St George’s Park, the home of the FA and England football teams. The annual showcase is both a platform for ACG’s suppliers to present their newest offerings to the buying group’s members and, of course, a highly enjoyable social event!
Retailers who are considering joining a buying group would be right in thinking that the combined buying power of multiple retailers all over the UK is a positive because, let’s face it, millions of pounds of buying power is better than thousands of pounds.
