Pets bring life to your home, and we love that! But are you wondering what floor is the best choice for both you and your pet? You probably want an easy to maintain floor that can withstand your dog’s muddy paws and cat’s scratch-marks. Find out what to look out for when buying a pet-friendly floor and some tips to keep your floor looking great over time.

A pet-friendly floor should be…

• Scratch-resistant: You don’t want scratch marks all over your floor after a play session with your pet. Look out for scratch-resistant floors that can withstand your pet’s sharp nails.
• Stain-resistant: Choose a floor that makes it easy to wipe away stains whether it’s muddy paw prints or anything else your four-legged friend might bring into the house.
• Easy to maintain: Keeping your house clean is just a bit more challenging with a pet, so choose a floor that is easy to clean. Go for colors and designs that are more forgiving to the eye when it comes to dust and hairs. It’s better to go for speckled designs than a crisp white floor for example.

A vinyl floor:

Withstands almost anything
Vinyl  is probably the best choice in terms of performance for your pet-friendly floor, our Alpha Vinyl  floors are highly resistant to scratches and stains. What’s more, vinyl also has sound-absorbing qualities, which will reduce the noise of your pet walking around on the floor. But no worries, you don’t have to compromise on the beauty of your floor. Within our vinyl range you have a wide selection of lovely stone and wood designs.

A laminate floor:

Authentic beauty, easy maintenance
Our laminate floors, like vinyl, are very resistant to stains and scratches. Moreover, our laminate floors have the most authentic laminate designs that come as close to real wood as possible. Although laminate is less sound-absorbing than vinyl, it’s a great choice if you want to combine authentic beauty with ease of maintenance.

A wooden floor:

Protected thanks to Wood for Life
You might be surprised to know that even our wooden floors are suitable for pets. The Wood for Life technology makes our wooden floors much more resistant to stains than its competitors. This innovative protective layer prevents dirt from getting into the wood and helps to preserve its as-new look for years. Besides, a wood floor offers the most authentic look of course as you’re bringing real wood into your home.
