Polysafe Mosaic PUR represents a significant step forward in safety flooring, offering a solution that doesn’t force a choice between aesthetics and function. Developed by Polyflor, a leading name in commercial flooring, this range is specifically engineered to provide sustainable slip resistance throughout its guaranteed lifespan. Its attractive design features tonal decorative chips fused into the vinyl, creating a sophisticated mosaic effect that complements modern commercial interior design schemes. This makes it an excellent choice for public-facing areas where appearance matters as much as safety.

The core strength of Polysafe Mosaic PUR lies in its safety credentials. It achieves a Pendulum Test Value (PTV) of 36+ on the RRL Slider 96, the benchmark required by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) for flooring in environments with a risk of water spillage. It also achieves an R10 slip resistance rating. This performance is thanks to the high-quality quartz, aluminium oxide, and silicon carbide particles integrated throughout the wear layer, ensuring consistent traction even in wet conditions. This makes it a reliable specification for areas such as hospital wards, school corridors, washrooms, canteens, bar serveries, and food preparation areas.

Maintenance is simplified by the cross-linked Polyurethane Reinforcement (PUR) coating applied during manufacturing. This factory finish provides superior cleaning benefits, enhanced protection against stains and scuffs, and eliminates the need for initial sealing or polishing. This significantly reduces life cycle maintenance costs, requiring only a straightforward cleaning regime to maintain its appearance and hygienic properties – a crucial factor in healthcare and educational environments. The PUR coating contributes to a more hygienic surface, resisting microbial growth.

Durability is another key feature. Polysafe Mosaic PUR is classified for heavy commercial use (Class 34) and heavy industrial use (Class 43) according to EN ISO 10874, attesting to its suitability for high-traffic areas. Polyflor backs this durability with a 10-year commercial product guarantee. Furthermore, Polysafe Mosaic PUR demonstrates strong environmental performance. It achieves a BRE Global Generic A+ rating for major use areas like healthcare and education, contains recycled content, and is 100% recyclable through the Recofloor vinyl take-back scheme. It also boasts Indoor Air Comfort GOLD certification for low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions, contributing to better indoor air quality.

Available in a practical 2-metre width roll format and 2mm gauge, Polysafe Mosaic PUR comes in a palette of 6 contemporary colours designed to coordinate effectively with various interior styles.

Polysafe Mosaic PUR Buying Guide

Choosing the right commercial flooring involves balancing safety, durability, maintenance, and aesthetics. This guide helps you determine if Polysafe Mosaic PUR is the ideal solution for your project:

Room usage / Location: Polysafe Mosaic PUR excels in high-traffic commercial areas where slip resistance is critical. It’s specifically designed for environments prone to spillages, such as healthcare settings (hospitals, clinics), educational facilities (schools, universities), retail spaces, leisure centres, commercial kitchens, canteens, washrooms, changing rooms, and bar serveries. It’s generally not intended for typical domestic use unless specific safety requirements dictate otherwise.
Lifestyle: This flooring is built for demanding commercial environments. Its primary focus is safety, hygiene, and longevity under heavy footfall. If your priority is maximum underfoot comfort or a plush feel, other flooring types like carpet might be more suitable.
Budget: As a high-performance commercial safety floor, Polysafe Mosaic PUR represents an investment in long-term safety and durability. While the initial cost might be higher than standard vinyl, its low maintenance requirements (thanks to the PUR coating) and extended lifespan offer excellent life cycle value.

Durability & Maintenance: Exceptional durability is a key strength, rated for heavy commercial and industrial use (Class 34/43). The PUR coating provides excellent resistance to stains and scuffs and makes cleaning significantly easier, reducing the need for polishes or seals and lowering ongoing maintenance costs. Regular cleaning following Polyflor’s guidelines is essential to maintain its appearance and slip resistance.
Material Type Pros & Cons:
Pros: Excellent sustainable slip resistance (HSE compliant), highly durable, very hygienic, easy to clean and maintain (PUR coating), waterproof when correctly installed (welded seams), good environmental profile (BRE A+, recycled content, recyclable), attractive decorative mosaic design.
Cons: Harder underfoot compared to carpet or some LVT, requires professional installation for optimal performance and water resistance, aesthetic is functional and may not suit luxury environments.
Aesthetics & Style: The Mosaic range offers a more decorative appearance than traditional plain safety flooring, featuring tonal chips for visual interest. Available in a curated palette of 6 contemporary colours, it can be integrated effectively into various commercial design schemes, offering a balance between style and essential safety features.
Comfort & Sound: Being a dense safety vinyl, it provides less underfoot cushioning than softer flooring types. It offers moderate acoustic insulation but is primarily chosen for its functional benefits rather than comfort or sound reduction.
Underfloor Heating: Polysafe Mosaic PUR is suitable for use with underfloor heating systems, provided the surface temperature does not exceed 27°C. Always confirm compatibility and installation guidelines with the underfloor heating manufacturer.
Installation: Professional installation is crucial for safety flooring. Polysafe Mosaic PUR is a sheet vinyl product that requires careful subfloor preparation, correct adhesive application, and heat-welded seams to ensure watertightness and optimal performance. Grosvenor Flooring’s expert fitters are trained in installing Polyflor products to the required standards.
Sustainability: Polysafe Mosaic PUR is a responsible choice. It boasts a BRE Global Generic A+ rating, incorporates recycled material, and is 100% recyclable via the Recofloor scheme. Its low VOC emissions (Indoor Air Comfort GOLD) contribute positively to indoor environmental quality.
