With sheet vinyl being a cost-effective flooring solution for social and affordable housing, Beauflor Crown is an ideal choice. The floor is made in a specification designed to excel in social and affordable homes, prioritising comfort to improve tenant wellbeing and maximising value for providers.
Thanks to its 4.0mm thick compact foam construction, Crown delivers exceptional underfoot feel and sound absorption (21dB impact noise reduction) for a floor that creates a supportive atmosphere for tenants. Stopping noise transmission between floors, Crown creates a quieter and more comfortable living environment – something that’s particularly beneficial in multi-storey buildings where noise can be a concern for residents. With the benefit of extra slip-resistance it also provides a more reassuring surface underfoot, particularly important in supporting a range of mobility needs often encountered in social housing.
Crown is available in matching plank and herringbone wood effects across a choice of five calming colours so that different patterns can be used in rooms a while still achieving a balanced look throughout the home. There are also three stone tile effects suited to kitchens and bathrooms. A total of 14 designs are available using a Natural Look matt textured finish for improved realism.
Crown’s smooth, non-porous surface makes it simple to clean, requiring just regular sweeping and occasional mopping. This low maintenance is perfect for social housing, where cost-effective upkeep is often a priority.
Chris Roberts, sales director Beauflor, said: “Sheet vinyl is the ideal choice for social homes as they need a floor which is excellent value, but that also provides a finish that’s attractive, comfortable and safe for the tenants. Our new Crown collection has been designed with these requirements in mind, so you can choose it with confidence as a floor that’s suitable for new social and affordable housing projects at all scales.”
