Rubber Flooring
Rubber flooring is valued for its high durability, slip resistance, and shock-absorbing qualities, making it ideal for gymnasiums, hospitals, and educational facilities. Rubber’s dense, non-porous surface resists stains, mold, and mildew while maintaining its elasticity over time. Available in various colors, patterns, and textures, it combines functionality with aesthetic appeal. Rubber also has natural sound absorption, making it suitable for settings where noise reduction is beneficial, such as libraries or classrooms.

Linoleum
Linoleum is a sustainable, biodegradable flooring made from natural materials like linseed oil, cork powder, and wood flour. Known for its resilience, linoleum is antimicrobial and highly durable, making it an excellent choice for hospitals, schools, and eco-conscious spaces. This flooring can withstand heavy foot traffic and even improves in appearance over time due to oxidation, often called a “patina” effect. Linoleum is available in sheet, tile, and plank formats with numerous colors and patterns that can enhance any space’s aesthetic.

Luxury Vinyl Tile and Plank (LVT/LVP)
Luxury vinyl flooring offers the look of natural materials, such as wood or stone, with the durability and low maintenance of resilient flooring. Available in tiles or planks, it is ideal for high-traffic areas, offering superior scratch and stain resistance. LVT and LVP are waterproof and easy to clean, making them suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, and retail environments. They come in various installation formats, from glue-down to click-lock, allowing for flexibility in design and durability for specific applications.

Sheet Vinyl
Sheet vinyl flooring is a versatile, durable option available in either heterogeneous (multi-layer) or homogeneous (single-layer) types, catering to different performance needs. It is often used in healthcare, education, and retail spaces due to its ability to withstand heavy traffic. Sheet vinyl’s waterproof, smooth surface makes it easy to maintain and hygienic, which is essential for environments requiring strict cleanliness standards. The printed layer in heterogeneous vinyl offers endless design possibilities, including patterns, colors, and textures that can simulate stone, wood, and other natural materials.

Composition Tile
Composition tiles, including vinyl composition tile (VCT), vinyl-enhanced tile (VET), solid vinyl tile (SVT), and bio-based tile (BBT), offer budget-friendly solutions with robust performance for high-traffic areas. VCT is known for its economic value and strength, ideal for retail and institutional environments. SVT and VET add enhanced durability and aesthetics, while BBT offers an eco-friendly alternative with lower environmental impact. These tiles are especially effective in settings like schools, offices, and healthcare facilities where heavy foot traffic and rolling loads are common.

Cork Flooring
Cork is a natural, renewable flooring material with excellent sound absorption and thermal insulation properties. It’s ideal for libraries, residential settings, and spaces requiring quieter, softer surfaces. Cork flooring is resistant to mold, mildew, and rot, making it a sustainable and comfortable option for light commercial and residential spaces.

PVC-Free Options
PVC-free flooring options are gaining traction in healthcare and educational facilities as they reduce environmental impact and are free from phthalates and other harmful chemicals. Available in various patterns and colors, PVC-free flooring is ideal for sustainable projects and spaces where indoor air quality is a priority.

Sports & Multi-Function Flooring
Sports and multi-function flooring are designed for spaces that host diverse activities, from gymnasiums to multi-purpose rooms. These floors provide shock absorption, sound insulation, and slip resistance, essential for athletic and recreational facilities. Made from materials such as rubber or cushioned vinyl, multi-function floors are versatile enough to support activities ranging from sports to events, making them popular in schools, fitness centers, and community centers.
