Planning a floor layout for an establishment is a very tough task. The decision requires a lot of research and understanding on the kind of pattern or product will look better at that space. In most of the cases, it is not just about looks. Different establishments require different requirements like it should be resistant to static current, should be sound proof and must not skid or slip if the space demands constant movements. 

 The concept of vinyl flooring is slowly catching up with various establishments. Being cheaper than traditional flooring methods, it is no wonder that major establishments like malls, industries, schools and transportation are opting for this method.

Among the many different flooring that vinyl products offer, two of the most common ones are homogeneous flooring and heterogeneous flooring. Both styles have its own advantages and aesthetic appeal.
