TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

RUBBER TILE

Distinct Designs

Flexco Distinct Designs Rubber Tile is

a homogenous rubber tile available in a

variety of Distinct Designs and patterns.

Distinct Designs is designed to match

other Flexco tiles, treads, wall base &

accessories. The natural durability and

dimensional stability of Distinct Designs

rubber make this flooring option ideal for

most high traffic commercial installations.

Distinct Designs rubber is made with

quality raw materials, making it a quiet

and extremely comfortable walking

surface that has excellent resistance

to abrasion, impact, scuffs, gouging,

and most chemicals. Distinct Designs

rubber is also flexible enough to ease

installation. The ability to maintain rubber

by dry buffing, rather than using waxes

or finishes, decreases the long-term

maintenance cost and environmental

strain due to chemical use and waste.

Ideal For:

Education: multi-purpose rooms,

classrooms and gymnasiums

Healthcare: exam rooms, nurses

stations and staff areas

Corporate: offices, conference rooms

and waiting areas

Assisted Living Facilities: Hallways,

rooms and congregation areas
