Super strength Polyflor PUR and Recofloor recycling scheme to star at Ecobuild
Polyflor Ltd, the UK’s number one commercial vinyl flooring manufacturer, will be showcasing two new ranges of heavy duty flooring featuring the company’s unique, ultra strong polyurethane reinforcement (PUR) at Ecobuild 2010.
Polysafe Mosaic PUR decorative safety vinyl flooring is sure to spark interest with its improved cleaning performance, while the Classic Mystique PUR smooth vinyl flooring range features an injection of colour with a new look, stronger collection of shades.
Both product ranges incorporate Polyflor’s specially engineered cross-linked, UV cured PUR, which sets the benchmark in polish-free, low maintenance flooring and offers significant sustainable maintenance benefits, including reduced energy, water and chemical usage.
As with many Polyflor products, Classic Mystique PUR and Polysafe Mosaic PUR boast the best BRE Global A+ rating, are manufactured using recycled materials and are 100% recyclable, further reducing the impact of Polyflor products on the environment.
Ecobuild visitors will also have the chance to learn more about the innovative Recofloor Vinyl Take-Back Scheme, of which Polyflor is one of two founder members. The scheme makes the recycling of flooring off-cuts and uplifts easy and efficient helping to reduce the overall environmental impact of vinyl floor manufacturing. In 2009, 150 tonnes of waste vinyl flooring was collected and recycled through the scheme, diverting it away from landfill.
Flooring off-cuts are recycled back into new vinyl flooring while uplifted, or end-of-life-material, is downcycled into traffic calming products, such as traffic cones or road barriers.
