• Recycling is one among several ways to save fossil resources.
• Around 200 million m² of vinyl (PVC) flooring is laid in Europe every year.
• A newly developed system of adhesive and special grid enables residue-free removal of the vinyl flooring after use, creating a valuable recycling material. This solution supports future recycling processes.
• In addition, the adhesive is made from 75% bio-based content (1), while the bucket is produced from at least 35% post-consumer recycled plastic.
