BE MORE FLEXIBLE


WITH FLOORWISE With the independent service that’s the hallmark of every depot, floorwise offers retailers, installers and contractors the best in flexibility.

WORRY-FREE WATERPROOF FLOORS


WITH ALPHA VINYL Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl comes with Hydroseal and Uniclic technologies for a 100% waterproof luxury vinyl floor.


Hydroseal is Quick-Step’s water repellent coating that was originally developed for its range of laminate floors, making them water-resistant and easier to clean. Stopping water from penetrating the surface, the technology is also available on Alpha Vinyl, Quick-Step’s premium luxury vinyl floors. Across the range, Hydroseal combines with the precision Uniclic (Unizip for herringbone) joint for a surface that water can’t penetrate and to make Alpha Vinyl 100% waterproof.


What’s more, thanks to the hygroscopic properties of Hydroseal, marks and spills don’t cling to the surface of Alpha Vinyl and with excellent stain-resistance too, cleaning has never been so easy. Waterproof, easy to clean and with Scratch Guard, which protects against scratches better than any similar vinyl product on the market today, Alpha Vinyl is wonderfully simple to live with.

Yet in a climate where the rising cost of living is putting pressure on homeowner’s budgets and installers need to remain as flexible


as possible, its independent network is becoming increasingly important. Each depot prides itself on understanding its customers and their needs and is able to respond to the unique challenges of business in the areas it covers.


Richard Bailey, managing director of floorwise, said: “During lockdown, some of our depots were the very few to be open across the whole industry. While others closed their doors, they took every effort to remain open and serve


Featuring Quick-Step’s Uniclic system on standard planks and tiles, or new Unizip for herringbone patterns, the floor is also impressively fast to install and with its high quality integrated underlay, it can be laid without a separate underlay or extra preparation across a range of subfloor conditions and types. Precisely engineered, the underlay eliminates gaps and forms a barrier against sound, making Alpha Vinyl quieter and enhancing the already excellent acoustics from its multi- layer construction.


Comfort is also another feature of Alpha Vinyl. Warm and soft to the touch, there’s nowhere these floors can’t go. Bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, living spaces and hallways: with Alpha Vinyl rooms will enjoy a floor that’s waterproof, easy to clean, scratch resistant, quiet and comfortable.


Expertly designed and produced in Belgium in a range of natural wood and stone designs, Alpha Vinyl combines robust practical features with exquisite surface detailing, for worry-free, high- performing, beautiful floors.
