B2B Hard‑Wearing Commercial Vinyl Flooring – Exporter Grade

This product is a heterogeneous vinyl floor covering engineered for environments that demand resistance to abrasion, impact, and staining while maintaining dimensional stability under fluctuating temperature and humidity conditions typical of commercial interiors.

The wear layer is formulated from a PVC‑based copolymer with a nominal thickness of 0.7 mm, providing a Taber Abrasion Index (ASTM D4060) of ≤ 80 mg loss per 1000 cycles under a 500 g load, which corresponds to a commercial‑grade classification of EN 649‑2.

A reinforced glass‑fiber mat backing, approximately 0.3 mm thick, is laminated to the wear layer to restrict longitudinal shrinkage to less than 0.15 % after 24 h exposure at 70 °C and 90 % RH, thereby reducing seam peaking in large‑area installations.

• Overall thickness: 2.0 mm ± 0.1 mm
• Weight: 2.8 kg/m² ± 0.1 kg/m²
• Slip resistance (R value): R10 (wet pendulum test, BS 7976‑2)
• Fire rating: Bfl‑s1 (EN 13501‑1)
• Phthalate‑free plasticizer content: < 0.1 % by weight

Typical installations include high‑traffic retail corridors, hospital patient wards, school classrooms, and light‑industrial warehouses where rolling loads of up to 250 kg per caster are common. The product’s low‑VOC emission profile (< 0.5 mg/m³ formaldehyde) satisfies indoor air quality requirements for LEED v4.1 and WELL Building Standard.

Quality assurance follows a ISO 9001‑aligned process: each batch undergoes inline thickness gauging (± 0.02 mm), wear‑layer abrasion testing on a Taber abrader, and dimensional stability checks after accelerated aging. Finished rolls are inspected for surface defects using 500 lux illumination; any roll exhibiting > 2 mm² of visible imperfection per linear meter is segregated for rework.

• Wear‑layer color: solid, patterned, or wood‑grain emboss (customizable via digital printing)
• Edge treatment: square, beveled, or cove‑form (for wall‑base integration)
• Backing options: standard glass‑fiber, reinforced polyester, or acoustic foam underlay (up to 2 mm)
• Roll width: 2 m, 3 m, or 4 m (custom slit widths available)
• Length: standard 20 lm rolls; length tolerance ± 0.5 %

Export packaging employs a three‑layer system: an inner polyethylene film to guard against moisture, a middle layer of corrugated cardboard for edge protection, and an outer woven polypropylene strap‑secured pallet. Each pallet is marked with handling symbols (keep dry, avoid direct sunlight) and includes a packing list that references batch number, roll dimensions, and QC certificates. Shipments are consolidated into 20‑ft or 40‑ft containers with a maximum stack height of two pallets to prevent deformation during transit.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Can the wear‑layer thickness be increased for heavier loads? Yes, thicknesses up to 1.2 mm are available upon request, which raises the Taber abrasion resistance to ≤ 45 mg loss per 1000 cycles.
• What information is required before a quotation? Projected area (m²), desired roll width, wear‑layer color/pattern, backing type, and any special performance criteria (e.g., acoustic rating, anti‑static).
• Are samples provided, and how are they charged? Up to three 300 mm × 300 mm samples are supplied free of charge; freight is collect or prepaid per the buyer’s account.
• How is quality verified for each shipment? Each container receives a mill test report (MTR) summarizing thickness, wear‑layer mass, dimensional stability, and slip resistance, signed by the QC manager.
• What is the typical production lead time? Standard lead time is 3‑4 weeks after receipt of confirmed purchase order and artwork approval; express options can reduce this to 10‑12 working days.
