LVT and The Struggles

There are two main groups of manufactured vinyl floors: sheet and plank. Both types are described as ‘luxury vinyl’ or known as LVT.  Because LVT is aesthetically pleasing it has become extremely popular, both in institutional and in consumer use.  Floor manufactures have made great strides with durability and appearance of LVT in the last 10 years.  However, even with advances in product development LVT will show wear and lose natural beauty over time.

Because of normal wear and tear, causing micro-scratches, facilities managers struggle with effectively and efficiently cleaning LVT floors. This leads to feeling defeated with a sub-par appearance and increased maintenance costs.  Another challenge in cleaning LVT is the deep grooves and texture, that trap dirt.  Other cleaning issues are compounded by surface treatments applied to LVT during the manufacturing process’. These treatments add extended durability but make the surface soil faster.

This is where Scepter comes in to save the day to fix your LVT floor problems.
