Beaufl or® provides cost-eff ective and durable sheet vinyl fl ooring for social and aff ordable homes that delivers value throughout the life cycle and that can help projects to be more sustainable. As housing providers place increasing focus on the sustainability of specifi cations, Beaufl or sheet vinyl can off er tangible advantages when it comes to the choice of fl ooring, even when managing tight budgets and high expectations. Firstly, the durability of Beaufl or’s sheet vinyl can provide a long domestic life and with a water-resistant and easy to clean surface that doesn’t harbour dirt and bacteria, there’s no need to replace them at change of tenancy. T is means a longer replacement cycle and reduced consumption of fl ooring over the lifetime of housing stock. Selected Beaufl or sheet vinyl fl oors are also available with a textile backing that can eliminate glue and subfl oor preparation in all rooms, including living spaces. With less installation material needed and faster fi tting over a range of fl oors, textile backed options off er cost advantages. T e clean upliſt off ered by these fl oors also means they are easier to remove when replacement is needed. In terms of product composition, Beaufl or Twilight is a cushion vinyl fl oor that uses PVC (the main material in all sheet vinyl fl oors) derived from 100% bio-circular attributed resources. Switching to this material means a 40% reduction in CO2


emissions over the fl oor’s production. info@beaufl or.com www.beaufl or.com
