With Gerflor Creation 55 Looselay Acoustic, you can design heavily used areas such as shops, public buildings and even some industrial areas with ease and style.
Gerflor's Looselay vinyl is easy to install and does not require any adhesives, allowing you to install the flooring without interrupting your business which is ideal for hospitality and commercial spaces. Of course, the design flooring can also be used in a home setting.
Thanks to the multi-layered structure of the flooring the design floor is an optimal choice also for areas with higher foot traffic. The robust vinyl flooring can be laid loose on an area of up to 30 m² and impresses with its high resistance after installation. You can choose between wood, stone and graphic designs in two formats, allowing all the possibilities of design. Another plus: the modern floor covering ensures optimal acoustics - for you and your neighbours.
While adhesive vinyl floors are still predominant in the residential sector, manufacturers such as Gerflor are constantly developing looselay vinyl flooring. The 5.50 mm thick floor covering can be used wonderfully for the design of more heavily used areas. According to the usage classes 33 and 42, the loose-lay vinyl is suitable for shop fitting, gastronomy and the hotel industry, but it is also classified as commercial flooring for industrial premises with predominantly standing activities.
The basis of Gerflor Creation 55 Looselay Acoustic is an acoustic backing that adheres to the floor easily, thanks to its increased inherent weight and special coating and also dampens impact sound. The next layer, a compact core with glass fibre fleece reinforcement, provides more comfort and stability. The high-resolution decorative layer presents a tasteful design in either a natural or graphic interpretation. The transparent, 0.55 mm thick wear layer also skilfully withstands increased foot traffic. The Protecshield™ surface finish provides additional protection against abrasion, dirt and scratches as well as easy maintenance.
Gerflor Creation 55 Looselay Acoustic vinyl flooring, which can also be installed on raised floors, has a 0.55 mm thick wear layer. Available as classic vinyl planks measuring 22.9 x 122.0 cm as well as vinyl tiles measuring 50 x 50 cm, the versatile Looselay vinyl offers you numerous design options. On a technical level, the self-laying vinyl flooring is characterised by optimal acoustic properties, as the impact sound can be minimised by up to 19 dB and the room sound can be improved by up to 70 dB. According to the fire protection class Bfl-s1 and the slip resistance class R10, the Gerflor vinyl of the Creation 55 Looselay Acoustic series is a safe floor covering.
The product is also suitable as vinyl flooring in the office and study thanks to its antistatic finish and suitability for chair castors. Suitable for underfloor heating, the flooring ensures permanently warm feet. The vinyl floor covering also has excellent light fastness and chemical resistance and complies with abrasion class T.
Gerflor's Loose-Lay Vinyl can also convince in terms of appearance. Gerflor Creation 55 Looselay Acoustic, for example, presents a rich selection of vinyl flooring in wood look for the classically beautiful design of rooms in industrial, commercial and home areas. You can choose from universal oak vinyl, rustic vinyl flooring in dark brown as well as modern design flooring in light grey. Some of the vinyl planks have a slightly used look, which further emphasises the authenticity of the decor. The four-sided bevelling emphasises each plank, creating a very natural-looking floor appearance.
In addition to the classic loose lay vinyl planks in wood look, you can also expect vinyl tiles in the Gerflor Creation 55 Looselay Acoustic collection. The Looselay vinyl in tile format is currently considered very modern and very fancy. For example, choose the popular vinyl floor in concrete look, opt for a vinyl floor in blue or discover the textile design "0878 Ponto Cruz City" in a grey-blue colour scheme.

By using loose lay vinyl flooring, you can also reduce the use of adhesives and thus promote the recovery and recycling of materials. The easy maintenance and high robustness increase the life span of Gerflor Creation 55 Looselay Acoustic, which also improves the ecological balance.
You can lay the Loose-Lay Vinyl of the Gerflor Creation 55 Looselay Acoustic collection loosely up to a room size of 30 m². From a room area of 30 m², the floor must be glued down. The floor covering should also be glued down in corridors and rooms with a length of more than 7 m. The prerequisite for loose laying is a smooth, even and crack-free subfloor. If you want to install the vinyl flooring on tiles, the joints must not be wider than 4 mm and not deeper than 1 mm. A temperature between 15 and 25 °C should prevail during installation. High-temperature fluctuations should always be avoided. In the case of direct sunlight, suitable sun protection should be provided; in case of doubt, additional bonding is advisable.
To ensure a clean and smooth subfloor, the application of a levelling compound is recommended if necessary. PVC floor coverings, parquet and carpeting should always be removed. Please consult the installation instructions to check whether your old flooring or subfloor is suitable for the installation of Gerflor Creation 55 Looselay Acoustic. If the design floor covering is installed on hot water-guided underfloor heating systems, the temperature of these must be kept between 18 and 22 °C for 3 days before, during and 7 days after installation. In total, the heating must not exceed a temperature of 28 °C. Note that the vinyl floor must be acclimatised 24 hours before installation and maintain an expansion gap to any solid rising objects in the room.
