If your currently looking into new flooring for your home then you may have come across the term “Resilient Flooring.” I’m sure you’re wondering what’s that? Or do I even need it? Well… I’m here to share everything to know about Resilient Flooring, and why you should consider it for your next home update.

I know when I first heard the term “Resilient Flooring” I didn’t understand what it was. Was it a type of flooring? A particular flooring brand? I had no idea! So, if you’re wondering what is Resilient Flooring, read on to learn more!

So what is Resilient Flooring?

It’s a category of flooring products, just like hardwood or carpet. Think… luxury vinyl tile, linoleum, rubber, and other specific flooring products that are “resilient.” To be considered resilient, it must have some degree of flexibility or “give,” yet it will still be a solid, non-fabric surfaces.

Resilient flooring must have qualities of strength and vitality, it’s built to endure all of life’s unexpected moments. But most importantly, resilient flooring focuses on Well-being, Sustainability, and Performance.

What is Resilient Flooring made from?

Most resilient flooring is made with a combination of natural and synthetic materials. However, it all depends on the type of resilient floor. It can be made from natural materials (like cork), synthetic materials (like vinyl), or a mixture of both (such as cork combined with rubber).

How long will Resilient Flooring last?

Resilient flooring is incredibly durable, but you’ll want to check out the individual manufacturer recommendations on how to maintain your flooring to achieve a long service life. You can also check out the Environmental Product Declaration for each product, which will tell you the life cycle impacts of a product.

How do you Clean Resilient Flooring?

Again, you’ll want to check with the individual manufacturer for specific cleaning instructions on how to maintain & clean your flooring. But, most do well with regular sweeping and a dry or damp mop. Try to stay away from abrasive cleaners and harsh cleaning solutions.

So why Resilient Flooring?

Overall, Resilient flooring is a great solution to everyday flooring needs. It comes in a wide arrange of color & style. When properly maintained, the durability and performance are unbeatable, and finally it’s affordable. Plus, it will stand the test of time and the stresses of everyday life, including waterproof & water-resistant options as well as advanced scratch protection and resistance to life’s harshest stains.

Personally for me, having a house full of kids and dogs I need a floor that is Made for Life. I have nonstop spills, messes, kids with cleats, and running dogs in my house; so a tough & durable floor is a must. That’s why we believe in Beautifully Responsible® flooring!
