Linoleum xf - Tarkett Profesionalams

And we can
prove it
Both internal and external testing show extraordinary
results for Linoleum xf. External tests
by WFK compared Linoleum xf with non-xf treated
linoleum. And the results speak for themselves.

Visual soiling behaviour and cleaning
performance
The differences in brightness before and after soiling
and cleaning were measured photometrically in
accordance with DIN 5033-3 including the confidence
interval. It is clear that Linoleum xf shows significantly
better results in terms of brightness and
colour differences.

Alkali resistance
Alkaline fluids (detergent) were left on test surfaces
for different periods. Linoleum xf clearly shows significantly
better results in terms of visual surface change.
Example: Virtually no visual change to Linoleum xf
after having fluid at pH 13 on its surface for 24 hours.

Stain test
Quantities (2 ml) of isopropanol, acetone, coffee and
betaisodona on the different linoleum surfaces for
2 hours, and the changes were measured in accordance
with DIN 5033-3. The results show that Linoleum xf
has significantly better resistance to aggressive substances
like these, in terms of visual surface change.
