With 80% of social homes still rented without flooring and growing scrutiny in standards of accommodation for tenants, social housing providers are having to place increasing focus on the provision of suitable floorcoverings within all areas. With Beauflor’s cost-effective sheet vinyl floors it is possible to deliver tenants a home-like, supportive floor that adds comfort.
When managing tight budgets and high expectations, selecting the right flooring is critical. Beauflor’s flooring delivers a uniquely cost-effective solution, balancing low total cost with performance, compliance and satisfaction.
Along with a low purchase price reducing the cost of installation significantly improves the provider’s total expenditure on flooring within social housing. The textile backing of Beauflor Quintex ensures fast glue-free installation on top of existing floors and poor condition subfloors. The floor allows quick fitting in new properties as well as refurbish at voids.
Quintex’s added slip-resistance (R10) ensures a safer surface in bathrooms and kitchens, while the Premium Coating aids maintenance in every room, helping tenants to look after their floor. Available in an extra-wide five-metre width, as well as two-, three- and four-metre, Quintex can also eliminate seams, reducing failure ‘hotspots’.
Polaris is another Beauflor sheet vinyl floor that’s faster to install thanks to its back emboss. Again, with R10 slip-resistance it brings safety underfoot in bathrooms and kitchens, while its Premium Coating ensures a surface that’s simple to care for. The floor’s 0.35mm wear layer ensures suitability for all rooms of social homes, bringing providers a cost-effective solution to their flooring requirements.
Both Quintex and Polaris come in a range of attractive natural designs, including oak planks, for a floor that creates a welcoming atmosphere that supports the wellbeing of tenants.
From tight budgets and high occupancy rates to the need for long-lasting, low-maintenance materials, Beauflor acknowledges the complexity of specifying flooring in today’s social homes. Its cost-effective vinyl flooring solutions don’t compromise on quality, durability or design. Whether renovating existing units or outfitting new developments, Beauflor floors are designed to reduce lifecycle costs while delivering comfort and reliability for residents.
