34 FLOORS & FLOOR COVERINGS
ASIDE FROM THE PRACTICAL BENEFITS OF VINYL FLOOR COVERINGS, THEIR OUTSTANDING AESTHETICS ARE ALSO A DRIVING FACTOR IN THEIR SPECIFICATION, PROVIDING IMPRESSIVE VISUALS WITH A UNIQUE IDENTITY AND NATURAL FEEL
natural feel. Modern printing techniques deliver sophisticated designs to offer future homeowners, from natural wood, stone and tiled effects to contemporary brushed steel and metallic finishes – all of which have been designed to reflect a home’s individual style. In fact, the designs available are sure to inspire flooring schemes for new build homes, providing homeowners with the aesthetics they really want. What’s more, as sheet vinyl is available in multiple widths, housebuilders can rest assured that a beautiful seam-free finish can be achieved without the need to weld. In addition to sheet vinyl, luxury vinyl
tiles (LVT) are also growing in popularity as the trend for modular design increases. Modular floor coverings are the perfect solution to create unique designs, as they allow housebuilders and homeowners to quickly and easily mix, match, combine or contrast various shapes, sizes, colours and textures of tiles. They also make commercial sense as they reduce installation time and wastage, which in turn helps to save on overall costs. They are also easier to handle and store on site. In order to stay up-to-date with the latest trends and technological advances of vinyl and other floor coverings, it is advised that housebuilders and developers liaise with a respectable manufacturer who can offer dedicated portfolios specifically for the housing sector.
