3 Reasons why so many people choose cast flooring
Cast floors are becoming more popular by the year. Anno 2022, it is impossible to imagine Dutch homes without the seamless cast floor. From apartment, row house to detached villa, a cast floor is available to more and more people. But why should you choose a cast floor? In this blog, we’ll tell you 3 reasons why you should choose an EPI cast floor.
A feast for the eyes
The cast floor is the foundation of any interior. Together with the interior, the floor determines much of the atmosphere in the home. Whether you’re after an artisan look, an industrial look or a colorful look; choosing a seamless plastic cast floor from EPI makes it possible.
A cast floor is not only suitable for living rooms, bedrooms and offices. The floor also fits very well in a kitchen or bathroom. Because the cast floor is applied liquid, it is completely waterproof and completely seamless, so no dirt and moisture can remain in the seams. The fact that the floor is seamless also makes the room look bigger.
Only comfort
Plastic cast floors are seamless, easy to keep clean with the right products and tools, and a perfect solution when combined with underfloor heating or heat pumps.
A cast floor evenly distributes the heat from the underfloor heating, its low thickness (2 to 3mm) allows it to transfer heat quickly and you make the best use of the efficiency of your underfloor heating, even with a heat pump. Even when the underfloor heating is off, the cast floor does useful and sustainable work by absorbing ambient heat. That provides nice warm feet in winter and a cooling effect in summer.
If you also add the EPI Membrane to your screed, you improve the sound-reducing properties of your screed, especially in an apartment this is often desired. The EPI Membrane also works as crack bridging for cracks up to 2.5 mm, giving you more security. In new construction houses or an addition, this is quite a reassurance.
Years of fun
With an average lifespan of 35 years, an EPI cast floor is well worth the investment. EPI cast floors are unprecedentedly strong and hard-wearing. So you can let your pets walk on the floor undisturbed and your children play happily. With proper maintenance, you will keep your floor in top condition and it will last considerably longer.
And what about major maintenance? The top coat (last layer) may need to be replaced after 7 to 12 years. Fortunately, you don’t have to do this yourself. Treat yourself to a weekend away and when you return home, the floor will be as good as new.
Experience it for yourself
A plastic molding floor offers many advantages. They are available in endless colors and color combinations, can be placed anywhere in the home and feel comfortable to the feet.
