High-Performance Flooring With Versatile Style Options

Vinyl Composition Tile (VCT)

High quality, high-performance vinyl composition tile is known for its affordability and durability. Modern VCT flooring is more rigid than traditional, older vinyl tiles.

VCT flooring is best used in low visibility, high traffic areas. It's a popular choice for institutions and cafeterias.

Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT)

LVT is vinyl flooring that is covered in high-resolution floor designs.

Usually inspired by nature and contemporary design, choices include wood, industrial stained concrete, stone, abstract geometrics and color block designs. New design choices can replicate the look of more expensive products.

LVT is available in several different wear layers ranging from 8 mil to 40 mil. The lower-end wear layers, 8-20 mil, are suitable for light commercial (very low foot traffic areas). The higher end, 20-40 mil, are best for commercial use with very heavy foot traffic.

LVT flooring is available with a waterproof core, floating click systems, and free-lay products that only call for perimeter adhesive, which reduces use of low VOC adhesive use.

Overall, LVT is a resilient, easy to install and easy to maintain flooring option. It's a great choice if you want a high design look for a lower cost.

Linoleum

Lino flooring has been a popular flooring choice since it's invention in 1864 (!), due to it's incredible durability. Modern linoleum flooring can last up to 40 years once laid.

Very easy to maintain, lino floors are a popular choice for institutional floors and high traffic areas.

Lino floors have welded seams - preventing fluids from penetrating the surface and making its way under the floor. This added layer of hygiene makes linoleum flooring incredibly popular in the healthcare and assisted living sectors.

Lino has the additional benefit of being environmentally friendly - it's made from wood bark and linseed oil.

Cork Flooring

It might not be the first flooring to come to mind as being resilient, but cork flooring is incredibly durable.

Made from the bark of the cork tree, cork floors are a good choice for anyone looking for environmentally friendly options. If dented, a cork floor will often return to its original shape with time.

Cork flooring is soft and yielding underfoot with the added bonus of insulating most noise - this makes it a great choice for rooms catering to children or the elderly.

Sheet Vinyl

Sheet vinyl is a continuous roll of vinyl flooring. Long-lasting and pre-coated means there's less maintenance needed than other options on the market.

Marketed as a seamless flooring option, it's heat welded to be impervious to germs. This makes it a popular choice in the medical sector, helping with infection control. The drawbacks of using sheet vinyl are it can be difficult to repair and install for people unfamiliar with it.

To use sheet vinyl on your floors, you need to make sure there is no pre-existing moisture in the substrate. Trapped moisture is bad news for sheet vinyl, so make sure you get your existing floor prepped fully in advance.

Rubber Flooring

Strong, tough, resilient. Rubber flooring is best used for sports floors, high-traffic areas and areas where people are on their feet for long periods of time.

The only real downside to rubber flooring happens when it’s not maintained correctly: abrasive liquids can cause discoloration.
