(54) Self sticking carpet tiles


(57) A packaging system and method for self stick carpet tiles includes a first group of tiles with adhesive and non-stick material arranged on the bottom surfaces according to a first pattern and a second group of carpet tiles with adhesive and non-stick material arranged on the bottom surfaces according to a second pattern. The first and second group tiles are paired off with their bottom surfaces facing each other. The first and second patterns of adhesive and non-stick material are chosen so that adhesive on the tiles does not contact each other when the carpet tile pairs are formed.
