Is vinyl flooring a good fit for all commercial spaces? In our latest blog post, we dive into the benefits of vinyl flooring for commercial use.
When choosing flooring for a commercial space, business owners must consider durability, maintenance, aesthetics, and cost. Vinyl flooring has become a popular choice in many commercial settings due to its versatility, affordability, and practicality, but for businesses that welcome 4-legged clients and customers, their vinyl flooring need to be dog friendly too. At
Floors for Paws, our
Pawsafe Commercial range ticks all the boxes.
Durability and resilience
One of the primary reasons vinyl flooring is widely used in commercial spaces is its durability. Vinyl flooring, especially
luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and
vinyl plank flooring, is designed to withstand heavy foot traffic, making it ideal for busy areas like offices, retail stores, restaurants, and healthcare facilities. The
Pawsafe Commercial range is supplied on the roll so that fewer seams and joins are required, making it ideal for any location with heavy foot traffic requiring regular deep cleaning.
Our commercial vinyl flooring has a protective coating that guards against dog claw scratches, dents, and stains, helping the floor to maintain its appearance after years of use.
Low maintenance
Maintaining vinyl flooring is relatively simple, making it a cost-effective option in the long run. Daily cleaning typically involves sweeping or vacuuming to remove dust and debris, while occasional mopping with mild cleaning solutions keeps it looking fresh. Unlike hardwood or natural stone flooring, vinyl doesn’t require refinishing, resealing, or frequent polishing, reducing maintenance costs. Our blog will tell you
how to clean sheet vinyl floors, as well as
how to keep pet-friendly flooring clean.
In commercial settings where time is money, the ease of maintaining vinyl floors can be a significant advantage. Businesses can maintain a professional and polished appearance without spending much time or many resources on upkeep. In environments where hygiene and cleanliness are important – such as veterinary surgeries and dog day care centres – being able to deep clean your flooring regularly, is crucial.
Water and stain resistance
Another major advantage of vinyl flooring is its water resistance. Vinyl is non-porous, meaning it repels moisture, which makes it an excellent choice for areas that are prone to spills or high humidity, such as kitchens, bathrooms, and medical facilities. Unlike hardwood, which can warp or swell when exposed to moisture, vinyl remains unaffected, making it particularly suitable for commercial spaces where liquid spills are frequent.
In addition to being water-resistant, Pawsafe Commercial vinyl flooring is also highly resistant to dog pee. This makes it an excellent option for environments like pet grooming parlours and canine cafes, where dog pee accidents are as common as food and drink spillages.
Cost-effectiveness
Commercial spaces often require large areas of flooring, and roll vinyl can be a cost-effective solution compared to other materials like hardwood, ceramic tile, or natural stone. Vinyl flooring is affordable to purchase, and, since it requires minimal maintenance and has a long lifespan, businesses can save on long-term upkeep costs, making it a wise investment for commercial use.
Design versatility
Vinyl flooring has evolved significantly in recent years, particularly with the introduction of luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and vinyl plank flooring. At Floors for Paws, our
Luxury Vinyl range and our
Pawsafe Domestic range are both available in a choice of stone- or wood-effect finishes, and are offered in a wide selection of colours. This design flexibility allows businesses to create stylish interiors both modern and traditional.
