BACK TO SCHOOL We understand the extra worry associated with sending your little (or big-little) ones off for another school year this time around. We wanted to share a little on the flooring that is found in most schools and how they are helping to keep your children healthy and safe... "From a child's first footsteps in pre-school right through to their elementary and high school education all the way to higher education, a Marmoleum floor covering will follow them. Wheth...er in the classroom, auditorium, gymnasium, or library, Marmoleum provides a solid, durable and hygienic floor covering as the basis for their education. Educational establishments demand attractive, hardwearing, low maintenance, safe and sustainable flooring solutions. Durability and hygiene are important in areas used by children and young adults. More then phthalate free, no phthalates ever. Marmoleum does not contain PVC, Phthalates, or Styrene providing a safe and low emitting floor. Marmoleum can help with LEED, Well, and ILF Living Building Challenge credits. Marmoleum offers a wealth of color options, scuff and scratch resistance, coupled with the possibility to repair damaged surfaces. Natural raw materials Phthalates free PVC free Allergy approved Low emission Acoustic CO2 neutral (from cradle to gate - without offset)"

Vinyl Plank vs Vinyl Tile- What's the difference? They are both waterproof, both have float or glue down options, both have the same levels of durability...so what sets them apart? Ultimately, it comes down to aesthetic. Vinyl plank was designed to provide a waterproof and ultra durable alternative to hardwood or laminate while Vinyl Tile is intended to replace (you guessed it) TILE! ... Plank is often found in long, plank like dimensions while tile can be found in short and narrow, short and wide, square dimensions that you would typically find in tile options. Both are great options if you are looking for something that is waterproof, durable and perhaps a but more DIY installer friendly!

Long Shelf Life Durable Various styles and colours available Cost effective While vinyl plank may be the more modern and more refined option, sheet vinyl most definitely still has its purpose!
