Ideal for heavy traffic areas in healthcare, education and other busy environments, Mipolam Cosmo offers low potential for slip (≥36 wet) when tested to BS 79762:2002. It’s also easy to maintain and provides outstanding stain resistance.
By combining the renowned hard-wearing Mipolam Cosmo with its revolutionary, patented Evercare™ surface treatment, international vinyl and linoleum flooring specialist Gerflor has redefined the standards for smooth homogeneous calendered flooring.
The use of Evercare™ sets new standards in low maintenance and provides an unrivalled level of stain and chemical resistance. For example, blood and common chemical stains, including iodine, can be easily and hygienically removed with a mop and water with a dash of mild detergent. Evercare™ also provides excellent scratch and scuff resistance and no waxing or polishing is needed during the product’s lifetime, ensuring cost savings on maintenance time and materials.
Truly remarkable is the impact of Evercare™ surface treatment on Mipolam Cosmo’s slip resistance performance. Independent testing at SATRA established this smooth vinyl flooring performed to in excess of ≥36 (wet) on the pendulum test, giving low potential for slips.
Gerflor Technical Services Manager Andy Sedman commented: “It’s worth
emphasising that if it’s maintained properly Evercare™ doesn’t deteriorate so the slip performance remains constant during the product’s lifespan.”
Competitively priced and presented in 18 colours, Mipolam Cosmo is lighter in weight than before for easier handling and installation. It comes in 2 metre width rolls, or 608mm² tiles (minimum order of 500m²), with 11 of the 18 colours in roll format available for delivery in 48 hours.
Now more environmentally friendly, Mipolam Cosmo is 100 per cent recyclable and comes with an A+ BRE generic rating, very low VOC emissions and meets HSE guidelines for fire safety standards.
