Double-sided dry-tack adhesive tabs for cleanly fixing and uplifting carpet, LVT and woven vinyl tiles on most prepared sub-floors.
Now we’ve got all building environments covered
We’ve expanded our tab installation family to cover a wider range of sub-floors and built environments.
Ultra thin, double-sided dry-tack tabs, IOBAC Tab-It cleanly and securely affixes carpet tiles, +4mm Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT), and woven vinyl tiles onto most common prepared
sub-floors, including:
- non-metal raised access floors including calcium sulphate, aluminium and wood
- concrete/polished concrete
- wood
- ceramic
- vinyl/lino/VCT
and can be used as an overlay system over existing flooring.
These little squares strongly secure floor coverings, even in heavy footfall spaces, using the same proven chemistry as our IOBAC MagTabs®, which is approved for use with flooring brands including Shaw Contract, Forbo, Burmatex, ntgrate, Tarkett, Desso, Ege Carpets, Balsan, Bolon, BLOQ , Milliken, Modulyss and Interface.
And in a first for the industry, Shaw Contract EMEA have gone one step further by offering a 15-year warranty for its carpet tiles when installed using our MagTabs and Tab-It®, including the re-installation of the tiles in a second location.
Hard to Shift, Yet Easy to Lift – Making Flooring Reuse A Reality
Flooring tiles are cleanly and easily uplifted, with no contamination of the flooring tile or sub-floor.
Flooring can then be easily reused, or recycled via the flooring manufacturer’s take-back scheme.
The sub-floor assets are protected and immediately ready for the next install, with no remedial time or costs required.

The Better Way To Install Flooring
Better For The Environment
- Uplift flooring cleanly and easily with no damage
- Reuse or recyle floor covering, facilitating manufacturer take-back schemes & eliminating landfill waste
- Eliminate VOCs associated with adhesive-based methods
- Prevent contamination of metal raised access flooring
- Contribute towards sustainability assessment certifications such as BREEAM, SKA ratings and LEED
Better For Design Flexibility
- Universally compatible – design is not limited to one brand or flooring type
- Seamlessly combine different flooring types and brands in the same space
- Use on a wide range of sub-floors and built environments
- Easily deconstruct and repurpose flooring
- Giving flooring maximum flex-agility for today’s spaces
Ultra-thin profile means no telegraphing of tab through to flooring top surface.
Yet super strong and tear resistant construction.
Better For Lifetime Value
- Fast, dry-laid installation method saves time, money and disruption
- Eliminates messy, wet trades
- Set out and lay straight away, no waiting needed
- Zero mess, cleaning or remedial costs on uplift
- Double liner for easy application and placement
- Material efficiency – 75% weight saving vs adhesive for reduced logistics and disposal costs
- Only 4% coverage needed – Equivalent price or cheaper per sqm than full-spread adhesive
