Top five benefits of Flotex Sheet
Textile Floorcoverings over traditional carpet

1. Heavy foot traffic over time, pile tracking and flattening is a common occurrence in carpets due to their pile height and construction. With over 70 million fibres per square metre, Flotex is nine times denser than the heaviest commercial grade carpet. Flotex will continue to have superior appearance retention long after traditional carpet has worn out.

2. The unique flocked nylon construction of Flotex presents an incomparable canvas for aesthetic design, colour and intricate detailing, whereas the yarns and fibres of carpet are preselected and do not allow for complex design work. The bespoke high definition and digital design possibilities are limitless with Flotex.

3. Commercial carpets use fibres and secondary backings that soak up liquid spills, causing permanent stains and odour. The impervious monofilament fibres of Flotex (which has no secondary backing) do not absorb liquids and will not soak into the subfloor beneath, meaning greater appearance retention and a more hygienic floor.

4. The tufted and woven construction of carpet, combined with high foot traffic, often leads to unsightly fraying and zippering at the joins and edges of carpets. Each individual short nylon fibre is embedded in the impervious vinyl backing, which means that Flotex is zipper-proof and is extremely durable to high foot traffic.

5. The tangled mass of fibres in carpet tufts trap dirt and prevent effective removal by vacuuming. Like the bristles of a toothbrush, Flotex's unique construction allows for the short, upright, individual impermeable fibres to easily release dirt and soiling. Furthermore, because Flotex is waterproof and rot-proof it's unique construction means that it is the only carpet that can be washed and scrubbed just like a standard vinyl, making Flotex easy to maintain, making life that little bit easier for facility managers.
