Polyurethane Comfort Flooring
A continuous flooring system whose elastic build softens each step, calms the sound and lightens the hours spent standing through the day.
The floor is the surface life happens on, all day long.
Eight hours spent on a hard floor leave their mark on the feet and the back. Polyurethane comfort systems combine the seamless, hygienic surface of epoxy with an elastic body; when you take a step, the floor answers with the slightest give. That give is invisible to the eye, but noticeable by the end of the day.
Another gift of the elastic build is calm: footsteps and the clatter of dropped objects soften markedly compared with a hard floor. Comfort flooring is a warm-charactered choice that does good to both the user and the space, in offices, educational buildings, healthcare areas and long corridors.
- Elastic body: A build that cushions the step and reduces walking fatigue.
- Warm surface feel: A warmer character to the touch than ceramic or concrete.
- Quiet in use: Footsteps and clatter soften within the elastic body.
- Crack bridging: The elasticity keeps hairline movements below from reaching the surface.
In spaces where the long hours pass.
Comfort flooring shows its value on the surfaces where the most time is spent.
Office floors
Workspaces and meeting areas that live all day.
Corridors and circulation
The building’s most-walked lines.
Educational buildings
The intensive use of classrooms and common areas.
Healthcare and care areas
Spaces where working on one’s feet is constant.
Nurseries and children’s areas
Safe surfaces where falls are met softly.
Stores and sales floors
Sections where staff are on their feet all day.
Views from the field.
Sample images from applications in different buildings and conditions.
The comfort comes from the body’s elasticity.
The system’s character is set by the self-leveling elastic polyurethane body; the top coat completes the color and cleanability.
- Finish coatDefining the color, the matte or satin finish and the cleanability: the top layer.
- Elastic polyurethane bodyProviding the comfort, the quietness and the crack bridging: the main layer.
- PrimerThe bonding layer providing adhesion to the concrete.
- Concrete slabThe existing substrate the system is built on, assessed beforehand.
The different faces of comfort.
The body’s elasticity and the finish’s character are adapted to the space’s use.
Standard comfort
Balanced elasticity for offices and education.
High elasticity
For children’s areas and care spaces.
Matte finish
A reflection-free, calm look.
Acoustic mat system
Strengthened with a mat where sound between floors is a concern.
Warm-charactered tones.
The tones below represent the characters most frequently chosen in comfort systems.
The tones here are representative examples only. Color and texture selection is finalized together over physical samples, according to the space’s light and use.
What is expected of a comfort floor.
Walking comfort

Crack bridging
Hairline movements below do not reach the surface.
Color options
A wide, warm-charactered palette.
Everyday durability
Resistance to office traffic and furniture.
Elasticity tuned to the use.
The classification below is indicative only. The final system is determined by assessing the space’s use and the expected comfort level.
