Armstrong Vinyl Flooring – Advantages And Disadvantages

Armstrong vinyl flooring is one of the most resilient and best known of all the vinyl flooring made today. They can offer you as the customer a wide range of products in their vinyl flooring range. In this article we will discuss some of these products to help you decide whether they are the right choice for your home.

As well as it being durable, vinyl flooring also comes in a wide variety of patterns such as marble, natural stone or tile as well as wood, all of which look very similar to their natural counterparts. They also come in a range of geometrical and historical patterns as well as diamond and floral styles.

Each vinyl flooring that Armstrong manufactures is made using a ToughGuard construction which contains a core that is durable and is resistant to tearing, gouging or any other kind of damage that can be caused to the structure of it.

As well as providing you with a variety of patterns, styles and colors they also come in either a high or low gloss finish. Also, many of their vinyl floor coverings come with a layer which is resistant to scratching and abrasive wear because it contains aluminum oxide. This particular coating is known as CleanSweep Plus.

The most popular range in the Armstrong vinyl flooring collection is called Destinations. This comes in a variety of natural patterns and is a mid range priced kind of floor covering. There are other ranges as well including MasterWorks which comes with an embossed look to the flooring and includes the CleanSweep Plus layer as does the Destinations range. Each of these particular kinds of flooring cover come with a 15 year warranty.

However, if you are on a limited budget then you may want to consider Armstrong’s discount vinyl flooring range known as Initiator. This comes in the more traditional kinds of vinyl flooring patterns that we instantly recognize and still comes with the ToughGuard inner core but only comes with a 5 year warranty. Certainly when it comes to vinyl flooring the more you spend on it the better quality it will be.

But if you are looking for an Armstrong vinyl flooring which will add a new dimension to any room in your home then why not consider their Natural Fusion collection.

In fact the techniques used to produce this particular flooring make it very difficult for someone to distinguish it from the real thing and again has the CleanSweep Plus finish along with aluminum oxide and polycarbonate. The warranty on this particular range of Armstrong vinyl flooring is 20 years and is certainly one of the longest warranties provided by any vinyl flooring manufacturer today.
