Modul'up | Sarlon traffic: modularity and creativity for unique spaces

All the decors are available in 4 emblematic constructions: Modul'up trafic and Modul'up compact, free-standing without glue, as well as Sarlon trafic 15 dB and 19 dB, flagship acoustic solutions, all developed and manufactured in Reims, incorporating up to 20% recycled content.

Designed to meet the needs of high-traffic spaces (education, healthcare, hospitality, retail, leisure, common areas of collective housing, etc.), this collection offers the advantage of infinite combinations between patterns and colors, transforming each space into a unique creation. Furthermore, these aesthetic alliances between the Modul'up | Sarlon trafic references are extended thanks to their complementarity with other ranges embracing the color card[1] from Forbo Flooring, such as Sarlibain, Eternal and Sarlon, work together to ensure perfect consistency for fully coordinated projects.

Floors with a resolutely assertive aesthetic

The ranges of Modul’up et Sarlon traffic are constantly reinventing themselves, combining style and functionality, to create varied atmospheres, whether soft, warm, dynamic or daring.

With 81 references in stock and 17 exclusive colors on request (MTO, Make To Order), the collection Modul'up | Sarlon traffic meets the growing need for creativity and personalization. These new designs enrich an already extensive palette, integrating soothing shades inspired by nature as well as bright and expressive hues. Graphic shapes (floral, champagne and lagoon halo; citrus, linen, grey, blue and denim halo contour; grey mimetico), terrazzo (grey, warm and multicoloured), wood imitations (oak, walnut), concrete, stone, travertine or even textile (anthracite and light grey new nairobi) also constitute signature decors. It should be noted that these are available both in loose and glued installation, all of which can be combined with each other, to play on symphonies or, conversely, on contrasts.

Optimal complementarity with other Forbo Fooring collections 

By combining modularity and creativity, the collection Modul'up | Sarlon traffic transforms each space into a unique and inspiring experience, while adapting perfectly to the most demanding projects. This is especially true since it also benefits from enhanced complementarity with several other ranges to perfect the unit as desired. arrangements. 

So, Modul'up and Sarlon traffic coordinate wonderfully with Sarlibain, a complete, fully waterproof shower system that combines Onyx+ wall cladding and Surestep flooring. Bathrooms can therefore benefit from total harmony across all surfaces.

Similarly, Sarlon complete walk, acoustic PVC flooring in strips, designed for installation on stairs (with step nosing integrated into the structure and visually contrasting), has a palette of colors that are easily coordinated with Modul'up and Sarlon traffic, again promoting a uniform aesthetic in the common areas of an ERP for example. 

Finally, the compact heterogeneous PVC floor covering in strips Eternal also agrees with Modul'up and Sarlon traffic, in the same segments (health, education, commerce, offices, hotels and leisure), where acoustics are not necessarily an imperative but where sustainability is essential. 

Technical performances still highly acclaimed

All the designs in this new collection of heterogeneous U3/U4 PVC coverings intended for high traffic areas are available in 4 constructions and 2 installation methods.

As for Fast Flooring, 100% free pose, Modul’up is definitely committed to the future. 

Invented by Forbo Flooring and benefiting from a Technical Opinion, Modul’up stands out for its installation, via a joining strip, which is twice as fast as glued flooring (without generating odors or glue waste), reducing the downtime of premises by 50%. Requiring no preparation of the substrate (with, as a result, a saving of 20% on the installation cost), this floor covering is ready for use immediately after installation. In the event of subsequent removal, this is done instantly, without causing any damage. In addition, it is remarkably easy to recycle[3], reinforcing its practicality and respect for the environment.

Modul'up traffic thus imposes itself as the best acoustic solution in strips and installation without glue on the market, effectively reducing noise pollution with insulation of 19 dB.

Modul'up compact, as for it, proves to be particularly suitable for covering complex supports including Vinyl on Foam (VSM) or asbestos, allied to high traffic areas, where durability and resistance to rolling loads are essential. 

En glued down, Sarlon traffic combines style, comfort, and durability. Featuring advanced acoustic technology, it effectively reduces noise while offering high resistance to heavy traffic, maintaining an impeccable appearance over time. It also guarantees optimal safety thanks to its R10 slip resistance.

The version Sarlon traffic 19 dB offers maximum acoustic efficiency and displays Class A walking sound (the most efficient), a real asset in the context of new projects where moderation of footstep and impact noise is essential.

As for Sarlon Traffic 15 dB, it combines 15 dB sound attenuation with exceptionally low residual indentation of 0,05 mm. This model is particularly suitable for hospital environments, thanks to its rollability comparable to that of a compact PVC floor, which facilitates the movement of heavy loads while reducing staff fatigue. Its XtremPUR™ surface treatment (which also benefits the 19 dB version) also offers enhanced protection against staining agents, such as betadine and eosin, as well as against scratches and shoe marks.
