Walking into an office or commercial space that boasts bright, shiny floors leaves a lasting impression on visitors. This is especially true when it comes to Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) and Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) flooring. LVT boasts a natural stone tile look and LVP looks like natural, wooden planks.

Designed for use in an office space, this type of flooring is growing in popularity due to its high durability, waterproof qualities and modern look. Clients, colleagues and business partners take notice of these welcoming floors. Therefore, it’s important to keep them looking their best. If neglected, their luster can easily fade away due to every day traffic.

Some of the most common culprits are:

• People walking around with dirt on their shoes
• Spills that are not immediately picked up resulting in stains
• Furniture or large items being moved carelessly resulting in scuff marks

Regular maintenance is necessary to keep these floors clean and presentable year-round. Vacuuming and mopping weekly will help reduce buildup of dirt and grime. To remove tough stains and dirt, use an all purpose cleaner or a tile and laminate spray with a soft bristle scrub brush. Never use wax when cleaning either LVT or LVP floors. Doing this will quickly dull the floors and make them very slippery.

Keeping your floors in tip-top condition will not only help ensure longevity, but will also boost employee morale. People like working in a clean environment – it indicates their leadership cares. So, your clean floors will foster a positive work environment and improve overall production.
