The Future is Now — Magnetic Flooring

Magnetic flooring is making its way from the commercial to the real estate market into your home. Can you imagine a floor covering that can be easily changed for a remodel? How about putting this flooring in your child’s bedroom and then switching it out when they get older and have their style?

This is the perfect solution in high-traffic areas where you can simply and easily replace damaged floors. The cost to replace aging flooring in kitchens, living rooms, and bedrooms is substantial; with magnetic floors, you can update your home at a fraction of the cost.

Creative Magnetic Flooring (CMF) uses a magnetic underlayment system from Magnetic Building Solutions (MBS) and ferrite-backed LVP to create interchangeable magnetic luxury vinyl flooring. The installation process is easy with minimal downtime; an application like a herringbone pattern would take several days using traditional methods, but it only takes hours using the magnetic system and LVT.

Other applications:

For the real estate industry, such as apartment buildings, rental property, assisted and senior living properties, this system alleviates the high cost of turnovers and renovations.

Commercial properties benefit from saving time and money. Minimal downtime for installation ensures business as usual with the ability to change out a worn floor in a lobby area or a hotel room as needed economically. In addition, the property can keep up aesthetically with current design and trends. ■

● Installation is environmentally friendly —

NO VOC’s ● Installation time is reduced ● High quality, ethically sourced materials ● The system utilizes recycled materials ● Underlayment lasts a lifetime ● No adhesives required for this process ● Completely waterproof ● The magnetic subfloor acts as a sound barrier

Here is how it works:

The base layer is the magnetic layer. It comes in a roll and is rolled out over any smooth, clean, dry subfloor (concrete or wood). No adhesives are required. The top layer is the LVP containing ferrite powder. Again, no glue, tongue in groove, or locking system is needed. When the top layer is placed on the base layer, they form a powerful magnetic bond. As a result, these floors are completely waterproof, and the magnetic subfloor acts as a sound barrier.

“Once the base layer is applied, the world of design blossoms before your very eyes. It is so easy to change, or add, or adjust!” — Michael Bennett, pioneer of magnetic flooring.

The base layer (A) is the magnetic layer. It comes in a roll. It can be rolled out over any smooth, clean, dry subfloor (concrete or wood). The top layer (B) is any flooring product containing our patented composite. When the top layer (B) is placed on the base layer (A), they form a magnetic bond.

The installation process is easy with minimal downtime; an application like a herringbone pattern would take several days using traditional methods, but it only takes hours using the magnetic system and LVT.

MBS virtually eliminates the need for adhesive bonds; there is no need to seam the underlayment.
