The Better Way for Flooring Installation

Flooring installation using traditional adhesive-based methods such as tackifiers, spray and contact adhesives can be problematic when it comes to uplift.

Flooring can be contaminated by not only adhesive residue but also some of the subfloor to which it was adhered, meaning it’s not suitable for recovery or reuse and can’t easily be recycled. 

This often results in contaminated floor coverings being sent for landfill after just one use.

Plus the sub-floor, often metal raised access flooring, is also contaminated, and has to be made good before the next installation, adding remedial costs for landlords and tenants.

Adhesive-free installation using IOBAC MagTabs and Ezy-Install means the flooring is held securely in place throughout its life, yet lifted quickly, cleanly and easily for repair, reuse or recycling.

A reversible connection that’s better for

• the environment
• design choice
• lifetime value.
