Flooring plays a central role in your interior design. Due to the large area that it covers, it has an enormous impact on the overall impact of your design.  Inlays give you unlimited possibilities for elevating your space. Create patterns, effects, wayfinding systems, or brand-specific elements –your imagination can be boundless.

Room inlays offer you endless options for creative design with added value

Room inlays are design elements. Depending on the colour combination, design language and combination of materials, they change and shape the room. They visually enhance the floor, inspire and invite you to linger in the room at certain points. They help give spaces a distinctive identity.

Routing systems
Routing systems on the floor in hospital helps wayfinding, created with nora floor coverings.

A well thought-out routing system is based on the behaviour of the users.

Routing systems help guide people through your facility. Whether for orientation, demarcation or escape routes – it is crucial that your routing system is always visible and understood.


With nora 4you, you can adapt your routing system to your individual spatial circumstances. For example, colour-coded stripes or signs in the floor help people to orientate themselves as they move through different sections or parts of the building.


In order to safely lead out of a building even in the dark, escape routes also require integrated light strips or other lighting elements. For this purpose, nora offers you a variety of inlay options for flooring or skirting boards.

Standard and customised symbols

Choose from our standard symbols or design your own.

There are symbols that everyone understands. The imagery in them is universal and is used almost everywhere in a similar form, as it points to typical topics such as security and potential hazards. Here we offer you a wide range of standardised templates, which we can customise according to your requirements. Simply let us know your desired symbol, size, colour and flooring and we'll take care of the rest.

In addition to our standard symbols, we will be happy to design and create individual symbols to suit your specific requirements.
