Amtico, a British innovator in luxury vinyl tiles with over 50 years of history, has set the standard for exquisite flooring solutions globally, catering to both retail and commercial markets in more than 130 countries.

Despite their legacy and success, Amtico faced a pressing need to modernise their digital presence to keep pace with growing visitor demands and contemporary performance standards.  Recognising the need for a robust digital transformation, Amtico partnered with Anything.

Challenge

Amtico's previous website, built on a highly customised Umbraco 7 platform, struggled with several limitations:

  • The website suffered performance issues progressive slowness, despite temporary boosts from Cloudflare, highlighted the need for a long-term solution.
  • Complexity with Content Management, over 100 custom components in Umbraco led to confusion and a steep learning curve for new team members.
  • The Design System became inconsistent, a coherent approach to content creation and styling was necessary to ensure consistency across B2B and B2C landing pages and customer touch points.
  • Amtico needed a scalable CMS to support ongoing feature additions and product launches.
  • The company sought an ultra-fast, intelligent search feature to improve user experience.
  • Localisation needs and requiring a seamless content translation and integration with search engine management tools were essential.
  • A simple, flexible CMS was needed to empower marketers to independently manage content.
  • Robust security of the system was increasingly difficult as their platform aged.
