So if you’re considering redoing the floors, have you looked at the option of vinyl floor tiles? Vinyl floor tiles can be one of the very best choices for attractive, long-lasting, low-maintenance flooring and yet it seems like not that many people know what a great choice they can truly be. When you’re building or renovating you need to make sure you know all of the options available, especially with everyone operating on such tight budgets these days. And vinyl floor tiles are one of the most affordable choices on the market. But what exactly makes them so great?
Originally, vinyl floor tiles saw a lot of usage in extremely high-traffic commercial areas as well as industrial and laboratory use. When they were first developed, vinyl tiles were lauded for their extreme strength and toughness. Vinyl can hold up to untold levels of wear and tear. It resists mold and fungus and can even be designed to be naturally antimicrobial. At the same time, it used to require fairly extensive maintenance consisting of waxing or adding numerous coats of finish. The high gloss finish became synonymous with what was and still is considered in many applications a “clean” floor. This was why it has become so useful in commercial installations for decades.
A few companies, most notable Roppe Corporation which is one of the leading vinyl floor tile suppliers, made a point of developing vinyl flooring that is as attractive or more so as conventional flooring options like leather and wood, in planks and tile. Vinyl flooring does not warp and crack like wood, it doesn’t have an outrageous price tag like real leather flooring, no chipping and mildew stains, and doesn’t wear down and stain like carpet. The result is that vinyl flooring has become one of the more popular options for new and long-lasting floors among savvy shoppers. There are also custom products that are available in vinyl such as special needs flooring like ESD properties.
Maintenance of these products has changed drastically over the years too. Gone are the days of applying many coats of thick acrylic finishes that can easily become damaged and leave unsightly marks on the floor. Newer vinyl products are often created with their own finish or wear layer that minimizes maintenance and is still highly durable and extremely easy to maintain – daily damp or dust mopping is still required, but simple buffing will keep the floor looking great.
If you have a construction or renovation project in the works, don’t overlook the flooring options that vinyl brings to the table. It has become a favorite among designers for a reason, and it might work for your space too. Check out vinyl floor tiles and see what you think – you might be surprised!
