CFJ recognises our resin flooring company

22 November, 2023

We are excited to share with you that TPS360 was recently recognised by Contract Flooring Journal at their awards in September 2023.

These types of prestigious awards tend to be dominated by various flooring options, with a resin floor company often not making the nominees list. In the recent CFJ awards, only a select few resin flooring companies managed to secure nominations. This is a clear indication of the changing landscape in the flooring industry and helps to demonstrate how the future of flooring is changing across all types of landscapes, including both commercial and residential fittings.

TPS360 won the best use of flooring in Retail category for our installation of flooring at the Newport Market Regeneration Project, which was a great project for us to work on with Remmers UK Ltd.

The Newport Market emerged from a spectacular multi-million-pound regeneration initiative back in 2022, and this transformed space now stands as a vibrant and eco-conscious haven for eating, shopping, socialising, and working. The Market boasts a diverse array of vendors, event areas, and dining establishments, offering a delightful variety for visitors.

In addition to granting the market a more vibrant and sustainable future, this revitalisation project complements the existing offerings in the High Street area and the broader city centre. It serves as a catalyst for further regeneration, breathing new life into the city. We are so proud of the part we played in helping this regeneration project reach completion.

The CFJ Awards stirred up immense anticipation within the professional circles of the industry this year. The event played host to a distinguished array of influential figures, among them contractors, manufacturers, and distributors and ourselves as a resin flooring company.

Over the years, the CFJ Awards has etched its name as the industry’s most exacting and fiercely competitive accolade ceremony. A panel of impartial and experienced judges meticulously scrutinises every entry, ensuring that only the most deserving contenders progress to the final round.

The roster of finalists consistently mirrors a remarkable blend of industry newcomers and seasoned veterans, each vying for the coveted top honours, making it a true showcase of excellence in the field. We are incredibly proud to have been a part of the list of worthy winners and nominees, especially as a resin flooring company.

The significance of this accolade lies in the recognition that resin flooring is emerging as a robust and highly competitive alternative to traditional flooring options, such as tiles, vinyl, and soft flooring. It signifies a noteworthy shift in the perception of resin flooring, where it is steadily gaining prominence in sectors where it was previously overlooked.

Take, for instance, the healthcare industry, with hospitals at the forefront. They are increasingly realising that resin flooring addresses numerous issues that have plagued them for years, particularly those related to tiles and grouting. This is equally true of other industries, such as education, public services such as fire stations and warehouse and industrial spaces.

Resin flooring systems have been experiencing a surge in popularity over the past few years, and it’s not difficult to see why. These cutting-edge resin floors are a complete package, comprising a primer, a smooth-flowing ‘body coat,’ the option for a surface sealer, and the possibility of incorporating a rubber underlay, along with the necessary adhesive and pore filler.

What sets this type of resin flooring apart is its commitment to providing users with a level of comfort that is reminiscent of cushioned vinyl flooring. But here’s where it gets exciting – it also delivers a seamless, hygienic surface. That means you get the cosy feel underfoot, much like cushioned vinyl, but without the hassle of joints that need to be welded. It’s an all-in-one solution for both comfort and cleanliness. When a resin floor reaches the end of its life, it can be easily overlaid with a fresh surface. No need to rip it out and send it off to the landfill, as you would with vinyl. It’s a revolutionary approach to flooring that’s both forward-thinking and eco-friendly.

Resin flooring offers a remarkable level of resilience, meaning it can effortlessly spring back into shape after experiencing bending, stretching, or compression. This resilience is not only impressive but also accompanied by enhanced flexibility, resulting in a surface that is less prone to cracking or facilitating crack-bridging.

Furthermore, resin flooring contributes to a quieter environment by reducing footfall noise and horizontal noise transmission, making it an ideal choice for spaces where noise control is crucial, such as in medical and educational settings. Its impressive impact resistance adds another layer of protection and longevity to the floor.

Unlike other flooring options, resin flooring is versatile enough to be applied to old bituminous substrates, saving you the cost and hassle of substrate replacement. It even excels at sound deadening, and the incorporation of a rubber crumb mat can further reduce vertical noise transmission, enhancing the overall acoustic quality of the space.

Beyond practicality, resin flooring provides a warm and comfortable feeling underfoot, ensuring a pleasant experience for those walking or standing on it. Its energy-absorbing properties make it a safer choice, reducing the risk of injury in case of falls again. This is particularly important in healthcare settings or locations where there is going to be a large number of people moving around. This combination of benefits not only makes resin flooring a practical choice but also elevates the comfort and safety of the space in which it is installed.

Resin flooring is swiftly being embraced as a resilient and practical flooring solution in critical environments where cleanliness, durability, and ease of maintenance are paramount. The CFJ award we received symbolises a turning point in the industry, signifying that resin flooring is not just a contender but a rising star in the flooring world. It is exciting to see what the future holds for this type of flooring.
