Malmo LVT continues to innovate with an AO coating added to stickdown range

The Malmo LVT flooring collection continues to cement its reputation for offering a high-performing and creative flooring solution for any environment across its Rigid and Freedom Stickdown ranges.


The latest development which demonstrates the brand’s commitment to innovation is the application of an Aluminium Oxide coating as standard across the entire collection of 25 Malmo Freedom Stickdown designs. This assures the necessary slip resistance required for use in any environment, including those where safety is a priority such as care homes, retirement homes, hotel bathrooms, holiday lets, and more.


The Aluminium Oxide coating increases the flooring’s slip resistance to +36 PTV, low risk in wet areas, while the 0.55mm wear layer further enhances its safety credentials. The coating, which does not compromise the visual quality of the flooring, also provides an additional protective layer against potential scratches.


Gail Alcock, Flooring Director for Malmo says: ‘The Aluminium Oxide coating is usually reserved for safety flooring where design choice can be quite limited. We recognised an opportunity to offer a design-led flooring that is suitable for use in any environment, including those where the prevention of slip accidents is vital such as the care and hospitality sectors. We see it as part of our care in the community to offer this as a standard feature rather than an add on sale, providing additional peace of mind to our customers.’


In just a few years, the Malmo collection has grown to offer 57 on-trend designs in plank, herringbone, and tile effects across a broad colour palette that appeals to today’s consumer tastes and interior trends. Advances in surface technology mean the flooring offers a level of authenticity like never before, exemplified in the award-winning Malmo Rigid Senses range which combines the look and feel of real wood with the technical and hard-wearing properties of vinyl, thanks to its Registered Embossed texture.


Assuring all necessary accreditations required for both commercial and residential applications, including fire rating and R10 slip resistance, Malmo flooring also offers the benefit of compatibility with water-piped underfloor heating systems across both its rigid click and stickdown systems, giving it the flexibility for use in any domestic or commercial setting.


Malmo LVT is hardwearing, resistant to indentations, will not chip or crack and has a warranty of up to 25 years for domestic applications and up to 10 years for commercial use. The range is distributed by International Decorative Surfaces and is available ex-stock from all of their nationwide branches for 24 to 48 hour delivery.
