Care & Maintenance

Unsurprisingly, gentle, regular cleaning of your Malmo™ floor is best.

Vacuum or sweep with a soft-bristle broom on a regular basis as needed. If vacuuming, ensure that you’re using it on the “hard floor” setting (not using the beater bars or anything with a hard metal head).

Make sure no grit or similar hard objects are stuck in the brush bristles or vacuum head, as they may scratch the floor.

Damp-mop weekly (or as needed) with a mild, non-abrasive floor cleaner and a microfibre mop.

We recommend Bona Tile & Laminate Floor Cleaner, and a swivel-head flat mop with replaceable cloth cover.

All Malmo™ LVT floors feature a protective coating (UV for Rigid products, Aluminium Oxide for Stickdown). This is what helps to make it so hard wearing, and means that no sealing or ongoing treatment is needed during or after installation.

If Malmo™ is water resistant, why can’t it be wet or steam mopped? Good question!  This is because excessive amounts of water can penetrate into the joints of the boards and build up beneath them over time.  Hot steam may affect the product surface, and with Rigid products in particular it may cause warping and movement issues.

Why do we specifically recommend Bona Tile & Laminate Floor Cleaner? It’s designed especially for use on hard floors including LVT, so is effective enough to clean the floor but without damaging it.  Other multi-purpose cleaners may leave a residue on the floor that can build up and make it feel tacky, dirty, or create a film that then peels.

All Malmo™ products are suitable for use with encased water piped underfloor heating (UFH) systems, however, you must ensure that you fully understand the usage limitations and operating instructions of your chosen system. As mentioned above, you need to pay particular attention to the types of mats and rugs used over your floor, as they can trap the heat and long term affect the surface of the floor.

Bear in mind that light colours require more frequent cleaning.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

At Malmo™ we take our social and environmental responsibilities very seriously. We’re committed to creating a safe and sustainable environment, and undertake a number of measures to ensure a positive contribution on the world we live in.

MANUFACTURE

At all stages of production – from raw material preparation and processing, through to product manufacture, packaging and transportation – we aim to use minimal amounts of energy (from renewable sources), and keep emissions to the lowest possible levels.
We follow three main principles regarding our waste output – in order of importance, these are:

Reduce - Resue - Recycle

Any unavoidable waste that is produced in the manufacturing process is repurposed for production of the bottom and middle layer of the product. The packaging is sustainably sourced and can be reused (wooden pallets) or recycled (cardboard).

DO NO HARM

No toxic chemicals or hazardous substances are emitted during the manufacture, installation or life cycle of Malmo™ products.

The LVT flooring is incredibly hardwearing and low maintenance, offering a significant usage lifespan backed with up to 25 years warranty. Designed to last, it also requires no repair or upkeep that involves oils, chemicals, sanding or other product usage or potential chemical emissions.

PHTHALATE FREE

Phthalates are used as plasticisers for many products, including flooring, to make plastics more flexible. This flexibility is a fundamental characteristic of LVT flooring, however Malmo™ is completely phthalate free, instead using the same plasticisers that are safe for use in food containers and young children’s toys. This ensures healthier living spaces, and enables our customers to achieve higher standards of sustainability and fulfil the requirements of green building certifications such as BREEAM, WELL and LEED.
