toleration

As for durability, most click lock models are more durable than adhesive models due to the size of the sheet thickness and the thickness of the wear layer.

✨ Tarkett Tip: For a comparison of the durability of vinyl flooring ✅ look at the thickness of the Wear Layer ❌ not the total thickness of the sheet. The anti-wear layer acts as a shield to protect the beautiful patterns of the floor from use and various scratches.

=========================

warranties

Of course, the more durable click lock models inevitably have a longer warranty period.

▶️ For the adhesive version of Tarkett vinyl flooring, we guarantee the product for 10 years.

Installation period

=========================

Restrictions of the two types of flooring

▶️ An important limitation of vinyl flooring is that the surface to be installed must be smooth, moisture free and not damaged. If the original floor is not level, the floor must be adjusted before installation.

▶️ For click lock models, if the floor is slightly uneven, it can be covered in some cases, since it is a floating installation. Before installation, the foreman must assess whether the floor needs to be adjusted before installation.

▶️ For adhesive models, because the mounting floor is attached to the original surface. If it is installed on uneven ground, the level will be seen as waves, not beautiful.

=========================

rundown

All in all, click lock vinyl flooring offers more durability, warranty and flexibility in paving and merchandise. It can be removed and installed in a new area without damage to the floor, but it must be exchanged for a higher price.

▶️ For Tarkett vinyl flooring, the adhesive version is a quality floor at an affordable price. It is quick to install. If the original floor is an area that can be covered, the granite floor, polished stone floor, which is still in perfect condition and does not fall off, will save time and cost of adjusting the floor.

▶️ For click lock vinyl flooring, the flexibility can be removed for future use in other rooms or spaces. Durability and warranty are 2 times longer than the adhesive version.
