About Gerflor
Gerflor is a company French group for vinyl floor coverings based in Villeurbanne (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes). Its activity focuses on its vinyl and sports floors for public and commercial buildings.
In commercial flooring, use class overrides appearance: an office, hotel or hospital floor endures traffic, castor chairs and aggressive cleaning that a residential floor never sees. Modularity — tiles and planks — makes spot replacement and adaptation to changing layouts easy, a decisive advantage in evolving workspaces.
The economics of commercial flooring are measured over the life cycle: a cheap product replaced every five years ends up costlier than a durable one with simple maintenance. Manufacturers' take-back and recycling programmes, and the ability to replace only damaged areas, weigh increasingly in the decision.
