## Description

Cool Concrete 9856 brings a modern stone finish to any room. This mid to dark grey sheet vinyl has a realistic concrete effect that works well in contemporary kitchens, bathrooms and living spaces. The finish looks authentic without the upkeep of real stone, and it stays waterproof even in wet areas.

A 0.7mm wear layer keeps the surface tough against daily wear. The R10 slip rating makes it safe underfoot, which matters in bathrooms and kitchens where moisture is common. At just 2mm thick, it sits low enough not to cause issues at doorways.

### Where it works

[Commercial Vinyl Flooring](https://flooringking.co.uk/category/commercial-vinyl) like this suits kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, bedrooms and living rooms. Its waterproof core makes it ideal for wet areas. The slip resistance and durability also make it suitable for light commercial settings including offices, retail and hospitality spaces where traffic is steady but not heavy.

### Installation and underfloor heating

Cool Concrete 9856 is glued down, so you'll need vinyl adhesive and a notched trowel for a flat, even fit. No underlay is required. The flooring works with underfloor heating systems, so if your home or workspace has warm water pipes beneath, this vinyl won't cause problems. Simply lay it over your existing subfloor once it's clean and level.

### Looking after it

Wipe spills straight away with a damp cloth. Sweep or vacuum regularly to keep grit from marking the surface. [Polyflor Expona Flow](https://flooringking.co.uk/category/polyflor-expona-flow) vinyl cleans easily with a pH-neutral floor cleaner and water. Avoid excessive scrubbing or standing water. The waterproof finish means moisture won't seep through, but pooled water can still eventually find its way underneath if it sits too long.

Polyflor backs this product with a 10-year commercial warranty, giving you confidence in its durability and performance.
