Why is Rubber Playground Flooring better than the PVC Flooring?
by Ashish Kumar ConsultantsDo you really know the difference between PVC and playground rubber flooring? Well,
rubber flooring is the top quality to go for. We have come up with this guide
on the basis of differences and the benefits of rubber flooring over PVC.
Rubber flooring is becoming increasingly popular and an unambiguous choice for
commercial, domestic and residential use because of its amazing superior
properties.
Appearance and Material Descriptions
Rubber flooring for
playgrounds will look quite similar to the eye when compared with the PVC
flooring. However, dot get confused with the descriptions as many companies
will claim and list their products as rubber in the description but if you look
at the product description in more detailed way, the product material is in
fact plastic.
Cost
A significant point is that rubber flooring for playground will turn out to be a more expensive
outlay than PVC. However, you need to factor in the cost over its lifetime to
get the true cost and value of rubber flooring as compared to PVC. Without any
doubt, you will get what you pay for in terms of quality and a far superior
endurance and resilience with the help of rubber flooring. Rubber flooring will
last for decades- up to 30 years-making it extremely cost-effective.
A research study conducted by Suzanne Barnes into the
life-cycle costs of rubber flooring against other common flooring materials
including vinyl, lino, carpet and wood from different manufacturers. The study
revealed that the cheapest flooring, vinyl, was in fact the most expensive and
costly choice over its lifetime.
Durability
and Resilience of Rubber Flooring
Playground rubber flooring is chosen by all types of
industries and commercial sectors because it is tough and strong and can be
witnessed as a good investment. Rubber flooring is extremely durable and will
last a long time because of its high resilience. The elasticity of rubber
provides anti-fatigue properties that are found naturally in rubber and are
further enhanced by a binding agent. Rubber resists majority of impacts and
circumstances and is also anti-tear, resistant to oil, chemicals and
cigarettes. It does not rot or decay and can also withstand heavy impacts,
scrapes and bumps. It’s highly resilient property clearly shows that playground
rubber flooring retains its appearances for quite a long time. Moreover, rubber
is also safer to use because of its anti-slip property and is not subject to
wear and tear which would cause the flooring to be unsafe.
