Technical Advantages of Enlio Heterogeneous Vinyl

Enlio's heterogeneous vinyl, particularly with its Stariver surface, offers a compelling suite of technical advantages that set it apart in the B2B flooring market. These benefits are derived from advanced material science and precision manufacturing, ensuring superior long-term performance and cost efficiency for commercial installations.

• ● Exceptional Durability and Wear Resistance: The thick wear layer, often enhanced by the Stariver surface treatment, provides superior resistance to abrasion, scratches, and indentations. This multi-layered construction, reinforced with fiberglass, maintains structural integrity and appearance even under constant heavy traffic and static loads, significantly extending product lifespan.
• ● Enhanced Hygiene and Ease of Maintenance: The non-porous surface, especially with advanced treatments like Stariver, repels dirt, stains, and microbes, making cleaning simple and effective. This reduces maintenance costs and is critical in environments requiring stringent hygiene protocols, such as healthcare and food service.
• ● Superior Dimensional Stability: Integrated fiberglass reinforcement within the core layers minimizes expansion and contraction, preventing common issues like gapping or curling. This stability is crucial for large-scale installations and contributes to a long-lasting, flat floor surface.
• ● Excellent Acoustic Performance: The material composition provides significant impact sound reduction (typically 4-6 dB), contributing to quieter indoor environments, a key factor in educational, healthcare, and office settings.
• ● Safety Features (Slip and Fire Resistance): Engineered with controlled surface textures, our heterogeneous sheet vinyl offers reliable slip resistance (R9-R10). Furthermore, it achieves critical fire classification (Bfl-s1), ensuring minimal flame spread and smoke production, enhancing occupant safety.
• ● Environmental Responsibility: Manufactured with low VOC emissions (A+ certified) and often incorporating recycled content, these products contribute to healthier indoor air quality and sustainable building practices. They meet stringent environmental standards such as AgBB and DIBt.

These advantages underscore Enlio's commitment to delivering high-performance, long-lasting, and environmentally responsible flooring solutions tailored for the demanding B2B sector.
