Many refuse to purchase linoleum because of the appearance of a visible defect, it needs to be changed completely or to mask the damage by furniture. Manufacturers took into account this nuance and released floor tiles PVC, the composition of which is completely identical to the roll linoleum. The only difference is that the vinyl tile is cut into square or rectangular pieces, making it much easier to lay it on the floor. In case of damage, the corrupted fragment can be removed and replaced with a new module.
Tile structure
Modular flooring made of PVC consists of four layers, each of which is responsible for a separate function:
- Base (stability and strength of the material);
- Steklovolokno (stabilizes the dimensions of the product, provides nesminaemost tiles);
- Decorative layer (gives the product a characteristic color or texture);
- Protective polyurethane layer (provides anti-slip properties, protects against scratches).
On the sides of the tile there are locks, such as "swallowtail", "carnations", or with a T-shape. Some products also have a self-adhesive base, which greatly simplifies the laying.
Recommendations for laying
PVC tiles refers to floor coverings that can be laid on different surfaces, whether concrete, tiled floor or wooden floor. Before beginning installation, thoroughly clean and degrease the floor and, if necessary, vacuum it. When the preparatory work is finished, you can start laying. First you need to glue the "beacon tiles", which will determine the center of the floor. The centerline can run parallel to the side wall or be calculated using a calculating method. The rest of the tiles must be laid in accordance with the axis. Each laid row should be rolled with a rubber roller and wiped with a rubber sponge. Please note that the floor can be washed only after 24 hours, and bring furniture in 48 hours. To protect the floor covering from the pressure, glue on the legs of the furniture felt lining.
Where can I use it?
Floor tiles PVC is ideal for kitchen, bathroom and hallway. Due to the large cross-country capacity, the floor in these rooms is heavily loaded, and vinyl tiles are very resistant to physical deterioration. In addition, it can be used in sports halls, production facilities and cafes.
