Pulling Force Testing: We placed a 94kg / 207.2 lbs load on a hoist and recorded the pulling force required on both carpet and Hard Plastic Flooring. The pulling force on carpet was approximately 15kg / 33.1 lbs, while on Hard Plastic Flooring it was approximately 7kg / 15.4 lbs. The test concluded that the average pulling force was reduced by about half when using Hard Plastic Flooring. View the test video.

Weight Testing: The purpose of testing was to see what would happen to the plastic under stress of a heavy load. Pelican placed some plastic flooring with some carpet and underlay under the wheels of a hoist lifting a weight of 197kg / 434lbs, plus the weight of the hoist. This weight was left static for 30 minutes, and after removing the plastic, it was hard to see any indenting or damage to the material.

CLEANING WARNING

Only use and store the product when it is dry. Test your cleaning chemicals on a discreet area to make sure it will not damage the material.

Flooring may be slippery when wet, or if walked on when wearing wet shoes, socks, or bare feet. Pelican Manufacturing P/L cannot be held responsible if someone slips on the Flooring.

Small stones or other hard material wedged in the soles of shoes may create scratches on the plastic. This may look untidy, but should not affect the function of the Flooring.

Pelican Manufacturing P/L cannot be held responsible if any damage is done to the carpet.

The Flooring may flatten or indent carpet pile if left in position for an extended period. However, the carpet should return to normal after vacuuming. We recommend lifting the Flooring periodically to let the carpet breathe and to check no moisture has accumulated under the Plastic Flooring.

Preventing Flooring Creep: If the Flooring moves out of position, this can usually be prevented with double-sided adhesive tape. For best results, apply the tape directly under the area where the person pushing the hoist walks, as placing it too close to the edges may cause the sides of the Flooring to lift and reduce the adhesive’s grip.

In factory testing, we used 36mm heavy-duty double-sided tape from a hardware store, cut into two 20cm lengths and applied in a ‘T’ shape. This successfully reduced both side-to-side and front-to-back movement. Depending on the size of the Flooring, additional tape may be required. Please note that Pelican Manufacturing cannot be held responsible for any carpet damage caused when removing taped Flooring, so we recommend testing the tape on an inconspicuous area before use.
