Printed Vinyl Flooring

A permanent vinyl floor is stuck down with adhesive and can’t be removed without risking damage to the floor. A semi-permanent vinyl floor is loose-laid using double-sided tape and then welded at the seams. The seams can later be cut and the floor taken up. A portable vinyl floor is rolled out and the seams are either covered with tape or temporarily secured to the sub-floor on the underside with double-sided tape.

We supply ten different vinyl floors which are , Harlequin Cascade, Harlequin Studio, Harlequin Reversible, Harlequin Reversible Pro, Harlequin Fiesta, Harlequin Hi-Shine, Harlequin Marine,  Harlequin Showfloor, Harlequin Standfast and Harlequin Allegro.

Always ensure that the Harlequin Vinyl Floor is cleaned before it is rolled up. If there is any dirt on the underside sweep it clean to prevent transfer onto the performance surface when rolling. Ensure that all adhesive residue from the tape is removed before rolling, otherwise it may be transferred to the performance surface and cause damage. Any stubborn adhesive residue can be removed using warm soapy water and a non-abrasive scouring pad. Allow to the soapy water to penetrate before using the pad. If any adhesive residue remains, dab lightly with methylated spirit and wipe off with a soft cloth Retain the original cardboard core, as it will be required to roll the floor after use. The cores help support the product and will prevent damage caused by bending and creasing. Use of the core will also make the rolled floor easier to handle. If the original cardboard cores are no longer available, use a PVC drainpipe with a minimum diameter of 75mm, ideally 100mm. All Harlequin Vinyl Floors except Allegro, Studio and FreeStyle should be stored on the core horizontally, not vertically (standing on the roll end) which is likely to cause damage to the floor edge. Harlequin Allegro, Studio and FreeStyle should be stored vertically to prevent compression damage to the foam backing. If the floor is being transported to another location, retain the original packaging (box and inserts) for reuse to protect the floor in transit.

The transportation used will depend upon your order. If your order’s small then it could arrive via Royal Mail or a courier service. If your order is large or heavy it may arrive in a 7.5 tonne tail-lift lorry, so please bear this in mind and let us know if you think there will be any difficulties.
