Overview
The Forest fx collection of wood effect vinyl sheet floorcoverings is specifically designed for a wide range of commercial interiors. The contemporary and creative timber designs are ideal for education, healthcare, office, retail and leisure sectors, developed and presented in a practical, resilient and hygienic product construction.
The durability of Forest fx lends itself perfectly to the demands of commercial interiors, leading with the key advantages of aesthetics and performance, with the added flexibility to meet corporate design schemes. Unique floor designs can easily be achieved by incorporating inlaid features and logos, managed by Polyflor’s in house design team.
To further enhance the floorcovering, Forest fx features a high quality, cross-linked polyurethane reinforcement (PUR) providing a low cost, polish-free maintenance regime for the lifetime of the product.
Forest fx is 100% recyclable and achieves BRE A+ certification for major use areas based on a life cycle analysis approach over a building life of 60 years. All these qualities make the collection environmentally preferable whilst meeting decorative, practical, budgetary and maintenance objectives.
Forest fx can be installed over underfloor heating. Please note it is recommended that underfloor heating systems are commissioned prior to the flooring being installed to ensure the heating system is operating correctly.
