Does Trelleborg Rubber Flooring need to be welded?
Rubber, unlike PVC and linoleum does not shrink after installation and therefore does not need any hot- or cold welding of the seams. However, Trelleborg Rubber Flooring offers a wide range of colour matched hot welding rod for our smooth flooring. The main reason for welding is that you get a watertight seam or in health care applications were hygiene regulations specify welded seams. The welding rod can also be used as a design element.
