FAQ & Releted Reading

Hospital vinyl flooring is commonly referred to as homogeneous sheet vinyl flooring or heterogeneous sheet vinyl flooring. These types of flooring are designed specifically for healthcare environments due to their durability, ease of cleaning, and ability to maintain a sterile environment. Here’s a brief overview of each:

Homogeneous Vinyl Flooring:

Made of a single layer that is the same composition throughout.

Known for its durability and ease of maintenance.

Often used in high-traffic areas due to its resistance to wear and tear.

Heterogeneous Vinyl Flooring:

Composed of multiple layers, including a printed top layer that can mimic various designs and patterns.

Offers more design flexibility while still maintaining durability and ease of cleaning.

Both types of flooring often include additional features such as:

Antimicrobial treatments: To reduce the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms.

Slip resistance: To ensure safety for both patients and staff.

Seamless installation: To prevent dirt and bacteria buildup in cracks and crevices.

These floors are selected for their ability to withstand the rigorous cleaning and disinfecting processes required in hospital environments.
