New top-of-the range flooring solution from Gerflor

Bringing together the best technologies available today, Mipolam Symbioz is a new top-of-the range flooring from Gerflor. It is the only abrasion group T flooring to combine the lowest weight ever for a 2mm homogeneous product; an exclusive bio-based plasticiser made from 100% organic sources; 40 times lower VOC emissions than European standards and a revolutionary new surface treatment, all coupled with fresh design and colours.

Gerflor’s Mipolam Symbioz is a highly flexible homogeneous compacted sheet floorcovering providing excellent resistance to wear in high traffic areas. Weighing just 2580gr/m² which is 20% less than standard homogeneous products, it features a non-directional design incorporating coloured chips to ensure an even colour throughout the thickness.

The environmental credentials of Mipolam Symbioz are impressive. The product contains over 75% sustainable or renewable raw materials with the bio-based plasticiser made of residues from cereals such as wheat and corn. All raw materials are available within 350km of the production site and 100% of post manufacturing waste gets recycled into new products. At the end of its life, Mipolam Symbioz is 100% recyclable. As part of Gerflor’s sustainable development policy, the product is manufactured in the first floorcovering plant awarded with the triple certification: ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 14 001 (environment) and OHSAS 18001 (safety).

Mipolam Symbioz features Evercare™, Gerflor’s revolutionary new patented treatment, which surfaces the product with micro-structured polymer layers textured by cross-laser technology. This provides unrivalled stain and chemical resistance and brings, on average, 30% savings on maintenance costs as no wax or polish is required during the lifetime of the product and 15% less detergent and water is used.
