Who wouldn't want to save time, money and effort?

Flotex Next is the first adhesive free textile flocked floor covering backing that can be used in high traffic applications. It can be installed quickly without adhesives, but is even more time and cost efficient at time of replacement. The floor covering is suitable for sustainable solutions because of the reusability of the product.

Fast flooring solution

The Flotex Next adhesive free flocked flooring combines the incredible performance of Flotex with the benefits of a loose lay installed floor. Not having to use installation adhesive makes Flotex Next very suitable for busy areas: installation time is reduced and there is minimal disruption or lingering adhesive odours. Flotex Next can be walked on immediately after installation.

With Flotex Next only a very short time is needed to prepare the substrate and the installation itself requires a limited number of operations. Only minimal preparation of the subfloor is required and the application of the adhesive and the drying time of the glue do not have to be taken into account. A new floor can be installed with minimal downtime or even without closing the premises.
