An Industry-First Resilient Floor Color Transformation System That Offers Exponential Time Saving and Reduced Environmental Impact
We are excited to announce that our long-time partnership with Bona is embarking on a new and exciting growth opportunity! In late 2019 Bona unveiled their Commercial System™ Resilient Flooring Solution, which is part of the Bona Commercial System suite of offerings. Bona is the first to offer a full system of resilient color transformation and maintenance products that empowers facilities to renovate rather than replace worn resilient floors.
“Current methods for resilient floor maintenance are toxic, messy and time consuming. On top of that, the process typically needs to be repeated, sometimes up to twice a year,” said Dave Posey, National Sales Manager, Facility Solutions. “This new solution can create a monolithic surface and gets facilities back up-and-running in less time with fewer resources and minimal environmental impact.”
Resilient floors, which includes vinyl composition tile (VCT), sheet vinyl, luxury vinyl tile (LVT), linoleum and rubber, are frequently found in hospitals, schools, retail stores and other large commercial locations. Traditionally, when these surfaces become worn, dirty or outdated, facilities either initiate a time-intensive process of stripping the floor then adding a layer of VOC-intense polish, or the facility will tear out and replace the floors. This non-decomposable material mostly ends up in local landfills. Both processes are expensive and cause significant facility downtime.
“Transforming resilient surfaces with the Bona Commercial System Resilient Flooring Solution can cut labor and facility downtime in half. And with regular maintenance, the facility will never need to use the toxic floor stripping product ever again,” continued Posey. “Best of all, we are keeping thousands of gallons of chemical waste out of waterways and millions of pounds of non-decomposable resilient material out of landfills.”
With a focus on color transformation, the renovation solution is a quick and simple process. The first few steps entail removal of the existing layers of floor polish. Next, the original resilient surface is prepared for the Bona Commercial System™ Resilient Floor Base Color, where decorative color chips are added simultaneously. The final step is two coats of the highly durable Bona Commercial System Resilient Floor Finish. Bona recommends its new hard surface cleaner to care and maintain the floor which will protect and extend the life of the floor.
“With so many resilient tile floors now at the end of their life-cycle, the new Bona Resilient Flooring Solution offers customers a quick, cost-effective, solution to transform and revive their floors,” said Jim Keough, Triple S VP Marketing, “Your local Triple S Member-Distributor is best at providing you with technical support and training to get your floor looking great again.”
