The choice of flooring in a laboratory environment goes beyond aesthetics.
In the case of Bassets 3D Lab, a dental laboratory specializing in prostheses, apart from looking for a laboratory floor that was easy to install, clean, hygienic and resistant, it had an obligatory requirement to meet: a floor on which the dental prostheses would not break when falling.
Our Decolock self-supporting vinyl tile emerged as the ideal solution to meet their criteria.
Decolock PVC Tile: A Complete Floor
The Decolock range, a range of high quality heterogeneous PVC vinyl tiles with a “dovetail” (puzzle-like) jointing system , seemed to them to be a solution that extended beyond its aesthetic appearance. First of all, it passed the “acid test” with teeth: it is a hard and compact floor, ideal for resisting tables, chairs and furniture, but the impact with the prosthesis has no impact on them.
The ingenious installation system was another argument in favor of the Decolock tile. It is a floor that does not require adhesive as its structure and puzzle joints allow for quick, easy and completely self-supporting installation on existing hard floors, but also on top of raised floors and floors with some moisture.
Durability and Performance, as well as Aesthetics
The Decolock PVC tile has 9 stone or mineral type finishes, slate, cement or granite effects very successful. In addition to its continuous appearance, the Decolock range is designed to withstand heavy traffic. With a total thickness of 5 mm and a wear layer of 0.7 mm, our tiles, being compact, are ideal for corporate environments with high foot traffic, hand pallet trucks and obviously chair, table and cabinet legs.
With an acoustic absorption level of 12dB, Decolock tile enhances the workers’ experience in the space.
Sustainability and Reuse: Decolock, the “Smart” Floor
One of the most notable advantages of Decolock tiles is their ability to be relocated to other spaces. Since no adhesive is required, our tiles can be moved to another location without losing their advantages. This feature, coupled with their easy installation, adds an additional level of sustainability and efficiency in terms of resource use and cost.
Conclusions: Decolock, A Fast and Effective Solution for Soil
The rapid transformation of the Bassets 3D Lab was a testament to the multiple advantages of our Decolock PVC tile. Not only did it meet the general requirements of strength, hygiene and aesthetics, but also offered additional solutions in terms of implant protection, but also sustainability.
An easy-to-install laboratory floor, in a business world in constant motion, the choice of Decolock high quality self-supporting tiles proved to be a decisive and quick step towards creating an efficient, sustainable and attractive corporate environment.
