The Colorex brand represents the best known ESD flooring in the market. The homogeneous pressed tile offers high quality and consistent performance. Matching weld cables, skirtings and coving ensure system solutions flor demanding floors in operating theatres, clean room and high tech environments
Conductivity is not a random matter
Comparing conductivity values in isolation does not always provide sufficient information, as conductive floor coverings often showing significant differences in performance. These are, for example, the way static charges are grounded, the factors influencing this process and most important of all, long term performance. As a matter of fact, the performance of a conductive floor covering is closely linked to the manufacturing process.

ColoRex plus is a homogeneous floor covering system that can be loose laid on nearly every kind of sub floor, regardless of their condition. ColoRex plus comes in three different versions meeting a large variety of performance requirements. All three versions can be seamlessly combined together. Tiles are dovetailed, with the dovetail connection system remaining invisible under the surface. As an addition, tiles can be heat welded for hygiene critical applications. ColoRex plus is suitable for ESD protected areas, temporary floorings and commercial and industrial areas, such as warehouses and distribution centres and in pharmaceutical and biotech industry.

ColoRex welltech is the first homogeneous, conductive floor covering product on polyester basis. It does not contain any plasticizer at all and it is free of antistatic additives, meeting the highest standards and expectations of modern environmental science. ColoRex welltech is therefore particularly suited for cleanroom applications. Thanks to the perfect hygiene due to a pore-free, bacteriostatic floor covering with a high material density this floor is highly suitable for in hospitals and aseptic areas. Furthermore, it has improved safety in case of fire, is hardly ignitable, has a low smoke development and is IMO (International Maritime Organisation) approved.
Wetroom solution
Forbo offer vinyl floor and wall coverings specifically designed for wetroom applications in care homes, hospitals, schools, offices and leisure facilities. This type of system provides no breeding grounds for bugs and bacteria, such as MRSA, overcoming infection control concerns that may be associated with traditional tile and grout.
Forbo's Aqualon relief floor covering has been designed to complement the Onyx vinyl wall covering, which combine to ensure a completely watertight finish. Both ranges can be colour co-ordinated with Forbo's other project vinyl ranges, including Step, Smaragd, Eternal and Sarlon.

Flex Design is a collection of high quality, dimensionally stable, heterogeneous vinyl tiles that have been specifically designed for loose lay installation. Ideal for use in renovation projects, with raised access floors or any in project where speed of installation is required.
The combination of a glass fleece carrier and multiple calandered layers makes Flex Design unprecendented in strength, performance and quality. The collection is available in 22 items and 7 different decorative effects. Flex spot, concrete, metallic woven and stone tiles are 50 x 50cm square, while the Flex Wood designs are planks at 100 x 20 cm.
Acoustic project vinyl
Acoustic project vinyl from Forbo comes in various designs while dB classifications conform to European Standards for impact sound reduction. The collections can be found below.
Performance with style. A sophisticated matt finish, certified impact sound reduction of 17 dB, the thickest 0.9 mm wear layer in the Forbo acoustic collection and a residual indentation level of just 0.08 mm give Sarlon Quartz a unique combination. The new lacquer is even resistant to bethadine. With silver ions in the lacquer and inside the wear layer a high bacteriostatic performance is guaranteed which does not diminish over time.
Sarlon Traffic is a comfortable heterogeneous vinyl floor covering combining the highest impact sound reduction of 19 dB with extremely high wear resistance, making it ideal for commercial applications subject to heavy traffic. Sarlon Traffic offers an array of combinations of colours and designs, along with two embossing patterns: sand and stone. The Hoggar design is also available in tiles. And an additional compact version, Sarlon Traffic Compact, features 10 colours from the Sarlon Traffic Hoggar range.
