Tarkett iQ: performance unleashed
The most expensive floor is the one you install twice, which is why Tarkett doubling the iQ vinyl warranty to 20 years represents such a major milestone. When selecting flooring for healthcare, education and other high-traffic spaces, you need a product that will last and is affordable to maintain, keeping its lifetime cost down.
There are many vinyl options on the market, but it’s iQ's unique surface restoration technology that truly sets it apart. It is the only vinyl flooring that can be restored while in use.
With no need for wax, polish or chemicals, iQ's dry-buffing technology brings the surface back to its original condition time and time again, without the need to close spaces during maintenance. People can walk on the floor straight after, which matters in busy environments such as hospitals.
Precision scratch and stain resistance protects it between restorations and Tarkett estimates iQ saves 30% in maintenance costs1.
At the end of its life, iQ vinyl can be returned through Re.Form, our product stewardship programme, and sent back to Tarkett to be recycled into new flooring.

WHY THE IQ WARRANTY HAS CHANGED
Decades of use have proven that iQ vinyl consistently outperforms its expected life of 10 years and Tarkett are so confident in the product that they decided to double their warranty by an additional 10 years, now offering the best available warranty on the market!
For specifiers, that's twice the cover, and essentially halves the total lifetime cost of iQ.
