  • Down time with floor screeding
  • Vinyl laying and gluing was time consuming resulting in late store launch
  • Traditional methods costly and not modern
  • Damage to flooring a reoccurring feature and expensive to maintain

    • Easy to maintain, clean and replace damaged tiles
    • Modern attractive and choice of colours with hidden grout joins
