NeoFloor® By Lees Resilient Textile
Flooring Backing System:
Lifetime Warranty
Lees offers a Lifetime Warranty on all resilient textile
floorings with the NeoFloor backing system. This Lifetime Warranty
covers delamination of secondary backing, failure of static
protection, excessive wear and edge ravel.
Features Warranted:
Edge Ravel
Lees warrants that under normal use this resilient textile
flooring will not ravel along seams during the lifetime of the
resilient textile flooring. Seams do not have to be sealed or
“buttered” during the installation process.
Backing Lamination
Lees warrants that the secondary backing of this resilient
textile flooring will not delaminate during the lifetime of
resilient textile flooring. Chair pads are not required when the
resilient textile flooring is installed directly to the floor.
Wear
Lees warrants that this resilient textile flooring will lose no
more than 10% by weight of pile face fiber during the lifetime of
the resilient textile flooring, when installed and maintained in
accordance with Lees’ published procedures, a copy of which is
available to the prospective purchaser at the point of sale.
Colorfastness: Wet & Dry-Lifetime
Lees warrants that NeoFloor will resist color transfer from
wear for the life of the resilient textile flooring. NeoFloor will
exhibit permanent colorfastness (wet or dry) for the lifetime of
the installation as measured by AATCC Test Method
165, minimum stain ratings of 4 or better when compared to
AATCC Color Transference Scale.
Wetfastness: Lifetime
Lees warrants that NeoFloor will resist color change after
exposure to water damage for the life of the resilient textile
flooring. NeoFloor will exhibit permanent wetfastness for the
lifetime of the installation as measured by AATCC Test
Method 107, minimum shade change should be no less than
International Gray Scale Rating of 4.
Static Protection
Lees warrants that this resilient textile flooring will give
protection from static discharges in excess of 3.0 KV when tested
under the Standard AATCC 134 Test method (at 70°F and 20% R.H.)
during the lifetime of the resilient textile flooring.
Adhesives
Lees warrants that NeoFloor adhesives will bond the resilient
textile flooring to the properly prepared substrate for the life
of the resilient textile flooring. Substrate must meet Lees
recommended floor preparation procedures. Should Lees adhesive not
be used, Lifetime Adhesive Warranties become null and void.
SmokeDensity
Lees warrants that every shipment of NeoFloor backing will
generate less than the generally accepted requirement of 450
Corrected Maximum Specific Optical Density (flaming mode) for
smoke developed when tested in accordance with
ASTM Test Procedure E662 (NFPA 258).
