What is EPDM Flooring?
EPDM flooring is a durable synthetic rubber roofing layer which is a combination of EPDM rubber granules and a cushion covering of shredded recycled rubber tires using a European polymer. EPDM stands for ethylene propylene diene monomer. It is poured on the site to give a seamless surface for continuous applications. EPDM floorings are mostly used in the automotive and construction sectors all because of its remarkable ability to resist the ultraviolet rays. The typical application of this kind of floorings is window and door seals (glazing), waterproofing sheets and electrical gaskets. Although the cost of rubber flooring is a bit on the higher side initially, it will actually cost you less over its lifetime. The EPDM floorings don’t require much maintenance and hence the original cost will surpass the maintenance cost. Also, the EPDM flooring is a great waterproof flooring option as it will not absorb water or any other liquids.
