What is Protect-All flooring?
Protect-All is a 1/4-inch commercial flooring made in the USA by Oscoda Plastics from more than 90% pre-consumer recycled PVC, reinforced with fabric strands. It is slip-resistant (the matte finish is NFSI certified high-traction), non-absorbent and resistant to grease, chemicals, bacteria and mildew.
What is the best flooring for a commercial kitchen?
A commercial kitchen floor should be slip-resistant when wet and greasy, non-absorbent, easy to clean, comfortable to stand on and quick to install. Welded sheet systems like Protect-All check all of those boxes without grout lines. See
restaurant flooring.
How long does installation take?
Most kitchens and walk-ins are installed around closed hours. Rapid Weld seams take foot traffic in about 20 to 30 minutes and the adhesive reaches normal traffic in roughly 12 hours. Larger spaces are phased.
Can Protect-All be installed over existing tile?
Over sound quarry, ceramic, porcelain or terrazzo tile with intact grout, often yes. Loose or damaged tile must come up.
