DURABILITY is a key factor in the specification of kitchen and bathroom flooring in social housing, and Beauflor cushion vinyl flooring is the first line of defence against premature wear and early replacement, says the company.
‘Every day flooring comes under attack and without the right durable solution, the risk of early deterioration, tenant complaints and repairs rises sharply. So, the specification of a floor that’s up to the task is important in ensuring a durable, lasting solution that reduces the risk of early replacement.
‘With varied household needs and unpredictable maintenance, durability is an essential requirement for any floorcovering, but the comfort and wellbeing of tenants also need to be considered.
‘Failure to deliver on these will mean a compromised floor that fails to live up to standard. Beauflor sheet vinyl floors are made to fulfil these requirements: affordable, durable, easy to look after, comfortable and in a wide range of calming natural designs, they’re the ideal choice.’
For the best in durability, Xtreme and Phoni-Xtreme feature a 0.70mm wear-layer for exceptional durability, meaning these floors deliver impressive wear performance and can withstand constant use, says Beauflor.
‘In fact, with a 10-year commercial use warranty; you’re unlikely to find a more durable option that’s also as affordable and comfortable.’
Continues the company: ‘With a wearlayer over twice as thick as domestic sheet vinyl floors and Beauflor’s low maintenance Protech coating, these floors resist scuffs, scratches and daily abrasion, reducing telltale signs of visible wear – particularly important when maintenance schedules in private areas can’t be guaranteed.
‘The installation of Xtreme and Phoni-Xtreme is also fast and with multiple width to choose from to reduce seams, less prone to damage and failure.’
Says Beauflor: ‘This durability is balanced by a floorcovering that enhances comfort and supports the well-being of tenants. Across a range of wood, chevron, concrete, terrazzo, stone and colour looks; Phoni-Xtreme and Xtreme offer a contemporary and welcoming floor design tenants will find appealing and which they’ll want to look after.
‘Phoni-Xtreme’s 19dB of impact sound reduction is advantageous in multi-occupancy buildings where it can help reduce noise between floors. Both floors also benefit from Antibacterial Shield to inhibit mould and mildew and are low VOC so will not adversely impact indoor air quality.
‘Offering heightened slip-resistance, they’re also safe underfoot, for a floor surface that ticks all the boxes of supporting tenants in their home.’
Concludes the company: ‘With exceptional durability, underfoot comfort and features that support the well-being of tenants, Beauflor Phoni-Xtreme and Xtreme are durable and stylish flooring solutions for social housing projects.’
