Today Vinyl flooring is becoming more and more popular. Many of the people will ask: how long can vinyl flooring last?
Before we answer this question, we will need to know more about vinyl flooring
When using PVC flooring for aerial renovation, it can adhere to the maximum extent that the original flooring is complete and undamaged, and the paving speed is very fast. The entire paving process does not produce noise and construction waste, allowing you to transform the original flooring unconsciously!
The application of PVC plastic flooring emphasizes functionality and applicability, and the selection and application of different PVC plastic flooring also depends on the performance of the flooring.
PVC plastic floor has thick color stripes, various stripes are vivid, three-dimensional and texture, which is suitable for indoor application. If you use it in a semi closed corridor, you must choose to use a floor with good anti-aging performance. PVC plastic floor is not suitable for use in places with strong sunlight. If you have selected it, you must do a good job of protection.
PVC plastic flooring is produced using PVC materials. PVC is polyvinyl chloride, also known as plastic, which does not contain formaldehyde. But when purchasing plastic flooring, don’t forget to smell the floor for any pungent odor. Normally, PVC flooring has a slight odor, which is not formaldehyde and will gradually dissipate after laying for a period of time.
The fire resistance rating of PVC plastic flooring is B1. Floors below B1 cannot be used in public places such as hospitals, office buildings, schools, sports venues, research institutions, social layouts, cars, and other transportation objects. Our country has strictly classified the fire resistance level of building materials, and the fire resistance level requirement for plastic flooring is B1.
The color of PVC plastic flooring is relatively thick, because the color of plastic flooring is accepted for printing. Regardless of the manufacturer, the flooring produced, even for the same model of flooring, there is a color difference between different production batches. The color difference of flooring from one production batch should not be significant.
The thickness of the wear-resistant layer is directly proportional to its service life. Some wear-resistant layers are thick, some are thin, and some do not have wear-resistant layers. The thicker the wear-resistant layer, the longer the application life.
Many consumers do not value the quality of construction, and many businesses and construction teams do not value it, simply perfunctory and personal matters. As the saying goes, three parts produce seven parts of the construction. After the PVC plastic floor is paved, the most crucial factor is the quality of the construction. Self leveling construction next to the construction is also very important. Many home decoration customers are unwilling to carry out self leveling and leveling when they hear that self leveling requires a fee, and require direct laying on the original ground. There are also many merchants who do not provide self leveling to save construction costs. The construction of self leveling must be strictly carried out according to the construction process, otherwise the PVC plastic floor is prone to uneven effects after paving.
The primary factor that has the greatest impact is the foot traffic. The larger the foot traffic, the faster the wear and tear, and the shorter the application life. Correspondingly, if used in a stack, the aisle where forklifts often travel back and forth will wear and tear faster than the inventory area, and the service life will also be shorter.
In addition to the above elements, we often have an illusion that the thicker the PVC floor, the longer its application life. The actual thickness of the real floor is largely independent of the comfort of the feet, and has minimal impact on the service life of the floor. In addition, the application lifespan of any product is not only related to the quality of the product itself, but also greatly influenced by the buyer’s application pattern.
As long as it is under normal circumstances, the service life of commercial vinyl sheet flooring is more than 10 years. Some even can last 30 years.
