Our interlocking floor tiles are made from PVC which is a plastic polymer with many performance benefits. PVC is replacing a lot of traditional building materials because it is cost effective, strong and long lasting.
No, there is no need to lay down a plastic membrane (in fact we advise that you don't do this). Our tiles can be installed directly over damp floors and contaminated surfaces.
You can cut them with a guillotine, hacksaw or jigsaw. Alternatively, use a utility knife with a concave blade which can be found as part of our installation kit.
Cutting Allowance & Wastage
What Cutting Allowance / Wastage Factor should I allow – We recommend that you allow a 4% wastage factor. To make your calculations 100% correct, measure to the nearest 25 centimeters.
In the vast majority of applications no adhesive is required; the tiles can be dry laid and will withstand vehicle traffic without a problem. The only instances in which the tiles may require gluing is when part of the floor is likely to be exposed to much higher temperatures than the rest of the floor (e.g. south facing garage door). If gluing is required the simplest adhesive to use is Uzin MK92S.
