Understanding the Manufacturing Process of Vinyl Flooring in Morayfield

· Carpet and Flooring

The concept of using vinyl flooring Morayfield is not new at all and we all have been using it for decades. There is no doubt that currently it has evolved a lot and come a long way from that old-fashioned, sticky floor. Modern-day vinyl floor is much more versatile, robust, functional and available in the best range of looks, patterns, etc. Most of us are using it even today, but without having any idea of how it is made. 

Here in this blog post, we will be throwing some light on how this floor is prepared and what are the raw materials included in the same.

HOW VINYL FLOORING MORAYFIELD IS MADE?

According to the experts, the entire process starts from really high quality and virgin materials and manufacturers mostly abstain from using recycled material because this degrades the quality of the outcome. Another reason is that when sourcing recycled materials, they have to source them from different areas and this also impacts the quality as well as the looks. 

In the first step of the process, the manufacturing team first cuts the wear layer into sheets and then, the film or the image to be used on the floor is also cut in similar shape. 

In the next step, the vinyl powder is heated and flat rolled and when it cools down, it is also divided in similar shape as of the sheets. Once all these preparations are done, these three items, i.e. the wear layer, the film and also the powder, everything is stacked and then heat pressed together. 

This heating turns these three materials into one and the outcome is luxury vinyl flooring Morayfield. This process sounds simple, but there could be different complications as we see in the case of carpet Morayfield manufacturing.

In the final process, polyurethane coating is added to the sheets and finally cured before being sent for cooling and washing in clean water. Then, these sheets are dried and once this happens, they can be cut into desired shapes and sizes and finally sent for quality inspection.

During the inspection and testing process, here are a few items we’re looking for:

  • Thickness of the product
  • Shrinkage and expansion
  • Puncture resistance
  • Speed of wear
  • Visual tests
  • UV thickness
