Called Concrete + Composed, it is constructed with Rigid Core technology. This technology uses a new high-density core which makes it ideal for high traffic commercial environments, and where acoustic comfort is imperative.
Textured concrete meets rich wood grain in this Collection for modern, eye-catching interiors. Concrete + Composed offers four textured concrete tones in a 47 x 61cm tile size for style Concrete, and 10 rich woodgrain tones in a 18 x 122cm plank for style Composed.
David Smith, Divisional Vice President, Shaw Contract EMEA says: "Rigid Core LVT is an innovation in the resilient flooring market. We are excited to be able to offer Concrete + Composed to our customers. We are seeing demand for resilient flooring in combination with carpet tile in an increasing number of markets and Concrete + Composed meets this need, and brings a whole new dimension for flooring choice."
With its patented layered construction, Rigid Core LVT is dimensionally stable, waterproof and scratch resistant. No acclimatisation of the product is needed, making installation quick and easy, and in turn reducing labour costs.
Ideal for commercial environments, Concrete + Composed is the perfect solution for Commercial Office, Multi-family Living, Retail, Hospitality and Senior Living applications.
As Rigid Core LVT is 100% waterproof, it can be installed in areas with moisture such as bathrooms and kitchens.
Concrete + Composed Rigid Core LVT, as a resilient flooring solution, features an extensive range of key benefits:
- Rigid Core LVT is waterproof and dimensionally stable. With a density of 1900-2000kg/m3, the top layers are protected from indentation.
- Cork acoustic backing provides added sound dampening from foot traffic and floor to floor sound transfer. In addition, cork's natural hypoallergenic qualities provide for further occupant comfort.
- Integrated locking edges eliminate the need for wet adhesives. Floating installation reduces flooring preparation and eliminates telegraphing.
- No acclimatisation means installs are faster than comparable products. Install out of the box with little or no floor prep required.
- The patented ExoGuard™ finish combined with low gloss and proper embossing provides excellent stain, scratching and abrasion resistance.
