Thermal Stability & Underfloor Heating Integration
“We engineer our Dryback LVT specifically for the Netherland’s fluctuating indoor temperatures. By utilizing 100% Virgin PVC resin and specialized mineral stabilizers, we guarantee a dimensional stability coefficient of ≤ 0.10%, ensuring your ‘Plak PVC’ floor remains perfectly flush even with high-output underfloor heating systems.”
Standard LVT often suffers from ‘cupping’ or gaps when exposed to heat. At Ecoflors, our manufacturing process includes a secondary heat-tempering stage to ‘lock’ the material’s memory. This is the Project Grade standard required for Dutch commercial and residential developments.
Technical Specifications & Compliance
We engineer our Dryback LVT to exceed European project mandates. Every batch undergoes rigorous ISO and EN standardization testing to ensure zero-defect performance in heavy-traffic environments.
| Parameter | Standard / Test | Ecoflors Result | Project Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Classification | EN ISO 10874 / EN 685 | Class 34 / 43 | Heavy Commercial to Light Industrial usage |
| Fire Resistance | EN 13501-1 / ISO 9239-1 | Bfl-s1 | Required for Dutch public escape routes |
| Slip Resistance | DIN 51130 / AS 4586 | R10 / Class P3 | Anti-slip for retail & healthcare safety |
| Dimensional Stability | ISO 23999 (80°C / 6h) | ≤ 0.10% | Industry-leading heat-shrinkage control |
| Abrasion Resistance | EN 660-2 | Group T (Highest) | Superior durability for long-term ROI |
| Castor Chair Test | ISO 4918 / EN 425 | Pass (25,000 Cycles) | Ensures no delamination in office areas |
| Formaldehyde Emission | EN 717-1 | Non-Detectable (E1) | Healthy Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) |
For Dutch Project Grade applications, **we recommend** the 0.55mm wear layer combined with our heat-tempered Dryback LVT. While Class 23/31 is sufficient for residential use, **our engineering focus** remains on meeting the strict EN 13501-1 Bfl-s1 fire safety codes common in Amsterdam and Rotterdam commercial developments.
Project Series: 157 x 765 mm
Dryback LVT ProfessionalOptimized 2.5mm Thickness
We engineered this 2.5mm profile to achieve the perfect balance between material stability and Ultra-low Thermal Resistance. It is the ideal choice for high-efficiency underfloor heating systems in the Netherlands, ensuring rapid heat transfer without energy loss.
0.55mm Commercial Wear Layer
Don’t let the slim profile fool you. Our 0.55mm pure PVC wear layer provides Group T abrasion resistance. It is specifically designed to withstand the heavy foot traffic of retail chains, office hubs, and healthcare facilities (Class 33/34).
Precise 157x765mm Ratio
This unique plank dimension creates a sophisticated, modern aesthetic that expands the visual perception of smaller commercial spaces. We provide 100% square-edge or micro-bevel options for a seamless, monolithic appearance.
“We recommend this specific 2.5mm/0.55mm configuration for Dutch renovators who require a minimal floor height increase without compromising on commercial durability. We have optimized the core density to ensure that even at 2.5mm, the dimensional stability remains within ≤ 0.10%, matching the performance of thicker alternatives.”
