Vinyl floors for ‘good quality social homes’

Beauflor vinyl floors are said to be a cost-effective and lasting finish for today’s social and affordable homes.

Says the company: ‘Social and affordable housing providers can look towards Beauflor for a floor that contributes to a supportive and good quality interior for tenants, while fulfilling the need for a solution that’s cost-effective to purchase and install, durable and low maintenance.

‘With natural wood designs, as well as tile, stone and modern looks like concrete and terrazzo, there’s a Beauflor sheet vinyl floor to match any design scheme and make social housing feel like a home. Combined with added benefits, such as slip-resistance for use in bathrooms or sound reducing floors for multi-occupancy homes; providers are assured of a floor that comforts tenants with a design that’s attractive and homely and with function that supports wellbeing.’

The company continues: ‘As a multi-layer design floor that’s supplied on roll, Beauflor sheet vinyl floors are an affordable entry into natural look flooring. The sheet format means quick installation and in smaller rooms such as bathrooms, often without the need for adhesive.

‘Beauflor’s textile back floors such as Blacktex can also be loose laid in rooms up to 35sq m over certain existing floors, making them particularly suitable for refurbishment. Durability is also an advantage of specifying Beauflor: the hardwearing Xtreme range achieves a Class 34 wear-rating that makes it suitable for heavy commercial use, while still providing a welcoming and homely natural look.

‘And with all Beauflor sheet vinyl for social and affordable housing, a Premium Coating makes the floor more resistant to dirt, stains and scratches while making the floor easier for tenants to clean. As well as being easy to clean, many collections are also hygienic with an anti-bacterial and anti-mould treatment.’

Beauflor adds: ‘The low slip nature of Beauflor also creates a safer environment for tenants. Sheet vinyl floors provide a surer feeling underfoot, while also allowing the easy passage of wheelchairs thanks to a non-textile finish. Beauflor offers R11 finishes suitable for domestic and public use. All floors are made in Europe using a REACH supply chain to ensure a floor free from hazardous substances, including harmful ortho-phthalates. Beauflor has also implemented a range of fossil fuel reductions and savings in energy use, including the installation of solar panels, the switch to LED lighting and heat recovery processing. Production waste is also recycled into other products and efficiency improvements have driven down waste by 33%.’

Concludes Beauflor: ‘Beauflor’s UK-based team can help develop a high-quality sheet vinyl flooring specification for social and affordable housing projects, providing a cost-effective, durable solution that plays its part in a safe, good quality home.’
