Areas in the home such as basements and bathrooms are more prone to excess moisture than others. These areas can become damp, which can cause long term damage to flooring. When moisture accumulates, it provides the ideal environment for mold and mildew to thrive. Mold and mildew spores can be carried in the air to other areas of your home. The elderly and those with respiratory conditions, allergies and illnesses can be susceptible to mold and mildew. This is where the additional benefits of non-slip waterproof flooring can be beneficial. With built-in micro-biocides that are featured on the surface of waterproof flooring, mold and mildew is easily wiped from the surface and prevents damp accumulation. So, if you’re looking for a waterproof flooring solution that’s easy to maintain, odor-free and damp resistant, non-slip waterproof flooring is the perfect solution.
PVC flooring is an increasingly popular durable flooring solution that is both high performing and cost-effective. Vinyl flooring (also called PVC flooring) consists of multiple layers of polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
Waterproof PVC flooring is a very good option for concrete-floored basements. Not only is PVC flooring easy to install, but virtually no clean-up is required, so it can be installed in just one day.
PVC flooring is fully waterproof, not just water-resistant. Even when exposed to water for extended periods, the flooring underneath remains undamaged. This makes it particularly suitable for areas where there is a tendency for dampness, such as in bathrooms and areas with constant or frequent moisture accumulation. With PVC flooring, leaky faucets, spilled pet water dishes and leaking plumbing no longer pose a threat to your floor.
Waterproof PVC floors are also well suited for cold areas. With a warm underfoot feeling that provides enhanced cushioning, it certainly feels more comfortable to walk on PVC flooring than ceramic tiles. Be mindful that vinyl installed directly onto a concrete subfloor can make it feel cool. In such circumstances, an underlay can be fitted.

Waterproof PVC flooring is perfectly suited to the leisure and hotel industry, including wet areas such as locker rooms, gyms, swimming pool facilities and in the home.
Waterproof flooring is highly beneficial for use in food and drink manufacturing facilities, in commercial kitchens and for foodservice areas. It is also beneficial for the healthcare industry, helping to reduce slips and falls for both healthcare providers and patients.
