2. Standout Features
A. Felt Backing Benefits
- Strong Soundproofing: The felt’s porous structure absorbs sound waves, cutting down on impact noise (like footsteps or moving furniture) and airborne noise. It’s 15-20 decibels quieter than regular PVC flooring—perfect for bedrooms or home offices where quiet matters.
- Cushioned Feel: The felt backing has great bounce, so it feels soft underfoot (no stiff, hard surface). It eases fatigue from standing long hours and cushions falls (good for kids) or dropped items, protecting both the floor and people.
- Slip & Moisture Resistance: The felt backing’s bottom is treated for grip, so it stays put on the subfloor. Felt doesn’t absorb water or trap moisture, and when paired with the waterproof PVC core, it stops dampness from seeping in (no mold or mildew).
B. PVC Core Benefits
- Scratch & Wear Resistance: The top layer has a UV-protective coating, with a wear rating of ≥4000 revolutions. It holds up to daily use (shoe soles, furniture legs) without scratches or fading, lasting 15-20 years.
- Waterproof & Easy to Clean: The dense PVC core has no pores, so spills (water, oil, etc.) won’t soak in. Just wipe it down with a damp cloth—no waxing needed, so maintenance costs stay low.
- Safe & Non-Toxic: It meets EU CE standards and China’s E0 formaldehyde limit. No harmful chemicals (like heavy metals) mean it’s safe for nurseries or senior bedrooms—move in right after installation, no airing out required.
3. Where to Use It
Thanks to its quiet, slip-resistant, and durable design, it works for residential, commercial, and public spaces:
| Space Type | Best For | Why It Fits |
|---|---|---|
| Residential | Bedrooms, living rooms, nurseries, kitchens, bathroom dry areas | Quiet, moisture-proof, safe for families, soft underfoot |
| Commercial | Offices, retail stores, cafes, hotel rooms | Durable, easy to clean, cuts down on noise (better for customers/employees) |
| Public | Hospital hallways, school classrooms, senior center activity rooms | Meets EU R10 slip standards, anti-microbial, holds up to heavy foot traffic |
4. How It Compares to Other Flooring
| Factor | Felt Backing PVC Flooring | Regular PVC Flooring | Hardwood Flooring | Ceramic Tile |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Soundproofing | ★★★★★ | ★★★☆☆ | ★★★★☆ | ★★☆☆☆ |
| Comfort Underfoot | ★★★★☆ | ★★☆☆☆ | ★★★★★ | ★★☆☆☆ |
| Water Resistance | ★★★★★ | ★★★★★ | ★★☆☆☆ | ★★★★★ |
| Installation Difficulty | Easy (dry lay/self-leveling, no glue needed) | Easy | Hard (needs subfloor leveling, floor joists) | Hard (needs subfloor leveling, tile setting) |
| Maintenance Cost | Low (wipe with damp cloth) | Low | High (regular waxing, termite prevention) | Medium (scratch prevention, grout cleaning) |
| Cost-Effectiveness | ★★★★★ | ★★★★☆ | ★★☆☆☆ | ★★★☆☆ |
5. Installation & Maintenance Tips
A. Installation Requirements
- Subfloor Prep: The subfloor must be level (≤2mm error per 2m), dry (≤8% moisture), and free of oil/dirt. For better adhesion, use a self-leveling underlayment.
- Installation Methods: Choose “dry lay” (lay directly down—great for temporary setups) or “full adhesive” (secure with eco-friendly floor glue—best for long-term use). No need to tear up old floors; it goes right over tile, hardwood, or concrete.
B. Daily Care
- Cleaning: Vacuum dust regularly. For stains, wipe with warm water + mild cleaner (avoid harsh chemicals like bleach).
- Maintenance: Keep sharp objects (knives, high-heel tips) off the floor. Put felt pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches.
6. Quality & After-Sales
- Certifications: Tested and approved by SGS and meets GB/T 4085-2015 standards (ensures safety and eco-friendliness).
- Warranty: 5-year free warranty (covers issues like peeling, cracking, or large-area fading) + lifetime technical support.
- Customization: Pick your color, texture (e.g., oak, marble), and size (standard width: 1.8-2.0m; length cut to order) for a personalized look.
