Heavy Use Vinyl FAQs

How thick is heavy duty vinyl flooring?

Vinyl flooring is available in a wide variety of thicknesses, but it’s the thickness of the wear layer that gives it durability. Heavy duty vinyl flooring is typically between 4mm and 6mm thick, however some premium options can be even thicker. For a more cost-effective option, or if you’re decorating an area with less foot traffic, consider opting for medium-use vinyl flooring instead.

How can I clean industrial vinyl flooring?

When your floors are in constant or heavy use, make sure to sweep daily using soft or microfibre brushes. Mop up any stains as quickly as possible with a suitable cleaning solution, and then follow up with a secondary mop to remove the soap residue. Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials and refrain from using hot water or steam mops – high temperatures can damage vinyl flooring!
