Grocery store owners and managers know how important retail flooring is. These establishments have lots of traffic and regular food spills, and need a floor that is durable but still attractive and professional looking. The hybrid chip vinyl system is a great choice to tackle all of these issues of grocery store flooring for many reasons.

Vinyl chip flooring is incredibly simple to clean. There are no grout lines that trap stubborn dirt, and the floors have an illustrious natural shine. All that is needed is a simple cleaning solution to get the floors spotless again. This is a lifesaver to cleaning staff and owners of the store, and they can spend less money and time on cleaning and more on running the store!
Hundreds of people come through the doors of a grocery store every day, as well as heavy carts, boxes of food, and machinery. Some retail flooring will have visible damage from all this traffic, but not V-8’s Hybrid XT (Xtra Tough) vinyl chip floors. These industrial strength floors are UV resistant and will not yellow over time, and will stay as beautiful as the day they were installed.
Hybrid XT vinyl chip floors come in a variety of colors, ranging from bright and bold to subtle and natural. Any design can be created, creating a welcoming atmosphere to the store. Match the colors of the store’s logo, or calm shoppers with a neutral shade. Use different colors for different areas, such as bakery, butcher, or pharmacy. The Stone Series even imitate natural stone, for a luxurious look that’s still durable and easy to clean.
Grocery stores can’t afford to shut down for long in order to install new floors. Often repairs and cleaning need to happen in the few hours the store closes at night. Luckily, Hybrid XT vinyl chip flooring is easy to install. It only takes one day and can be installed when temperatures are as low as 0°F (-17°C), which is perfect for stores in areas with harsh winters. The floors do not release any Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), making it safe for contractors, employees, as well as customers.
There are few conditions that compare to that of a grocery store, and they need floors to stand up to the challenge. The Hybrid XT vinyl chip system lasts longer, looks better, and is easier to install than another other flooring option out there. Nothing compares to the simple shine and beauty of the vinyl flake floors.
