FloorScore Certified Flooring

How Does FloorScore® Certified Vinyl Flooring Improve Your Home or Business?

At Graphic Image Flooring^™ we take pride knowing our BILD^® vinyl material product line is FloorScore^® Certified to improve your quality of life at work, at rest and on the go. When you see the FloorScore^® seal of approval on our BILD^® vinyl flooring and AquaTread^® Marine Flooring for boats and pontoon flooring, rest assured it has undergone a voluntary, independent certification program to receive such a coveted honor.

What does it mean to be FloorScore^® Certified? 

Being FloorScore^® Certified flooring designates that our commercial and residential vinyl flooring is safe for indoor use.  

The FloorScore program tests and certifies hard surface flooring and the materials they are made with to ensure they are in compliance with stringent indoor air quality (IAQ) emissions. Floor Score certification was actually developed by the Resilient Floor Covering Institute (RFCI) in conjunction with Scientific Certification Systems (SCS) and the flooring industry’s manufacturers and suppliers of raw materials, additives and adhesives. Together they wanted to comply with strict volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emission standards enforced by the state of California. And thanks to California, we all get to reap the benefits of the best flooring and cleaner air.  

For vinyl flooring products to get the FloorScore^® approval, they must undergo stringent testing to prove they will promote healthy air quality once installed in your home, business, grow room, transit vehicle, etc. Vinyl sheet flooring rolls that meet FloorScore standards are acceptable flooring for educational facilities and meet rigid requirements for healthcare flooring.  

So, you know BILD^® Vinyl is safe for your family, your friends, your furry kids and your customers and commuters.

Why is Indoor Air Quality so important? 

Experts estimate that we spend 90% of our time indoors. If we surround ourselves with poor indoor air quality (IAQ), that can have a significant impact on our overall health. Poor IAQ has been linked to dizziness, headaches, and a variety of long-term health problems.  

Any product that passes the FloorScore test means it helps provide a cleaner, healthier environment. Think about all those places where you spend long hours working or relaxing. FloorScore^® Certified vinyl flooring rolls and vinyl mats are a healthy choice for: 

• Garage parking pads 
• Workroom flooring 
• Floor coverings for retail, office, and commercial and warehouse spaces 
• Residential kitchens, baths, utility rooms, rec rooms and basement floors 
• Kennel liners 
• Trailer & Modular flooring 
• RVs and other transit floor coverings
