Electrostatically flocked carpet planks.

- Single colourways will give a minimalist, urban aesthetic.
- The unique construction of Flotex allows it to release soiling like no other textile flooring. The smooth, straight fibres of Flotex do not trap particles of soil, allowing them to be removed without difficulty during cleaning.

For use with 542 Eurofix Tack Plus very low VOC emission PVC tackifier release system.
Method of laying:
Half-drop, herringbone, double herringbone and weave installations.
