material that you want to install in your home,

  complement your home decor.

Color and Patterns

• Color and patterns are applied to vinyl flooring
  in two major ways printed and inlaid.

Printed vinyl means exactly the same as its name.
With printed vinyl, a color or pattern is printed
directly on the flooring sheets. Because of its
beauty and flexibility, printed vinyl is
considered as the first flooring choice for
homes. There is some printed vinyl that is
designed to look like other flooring materials
like hardwood, and tiles. With Inlaid vinyl,
the color granules are being embedded into the
flooring sheet. This is done in order to come up
with a richer finish and a deeper look.

  sheet, tile, and plank.

are available in 6 and 12 feet wide and are
usually sold by meter or by roll. They are well
fitted in areas with high moisture content like
your kitchens and bathroom.
You can install them seamlessly and easily. You
do not have to hire a professional to install
them.

• Tile vinyl is specially made to exact 12 inches
  or 18 inches dimensions. It is also manufactured
  with uniform thickness. If you want the one that
  is easiest to install, go for self-adhesive vinyl
  tiles.
• Vinyl plank looks more like hardwood planks. It
  is commonly made with a width of 4 or 6 inches
  and a length of 3 or 4 feet. Although it looks
  like authentic hardwood planks, it is a lot less
  costly, and easier to maintain and install.
