Hybrid Flooring: Does It Attract Dirt?

Hybrid flooring has taken the world by storm – and demand for this exquisite and revolutionary product is showing no signs of abating.

Fusing the best attributes of laminate and vinyl, hybrid flooring delivers stunning hardwood-look floating floors that are rigid and robust, as well as voguish and versatile.

Parrys offers both textured and non-textured finishes, prompting many buyers to wonder if textured hybrid floors attract more dirt or are harder to clean.

Let’s take a look!

Q. Why textured hybrid flooring?

A. A textured surface enhances the visual appeal, character and depth of hybrid floors, helping them to look and feel more like a natural substance ie. timber.

Added bonus #1: Texture also creates more grip, making this an excellent slip-resistant flooring choice and ideal for high-traffic spaces and homes with younger or older family members.

Q. Does textured hybrid flooring attract or trap more dirt?

A.  The slight texture may offer more spaces for dirt to accumulate than a smooth finish, however, the grooves, slight height and shadows of textured hybrid floors do a better job of hiding dust and debris in between regular cleaning!

Added bonus #2: Hybrid floors are 100% waterproof, making them great for homes with young kids and pets.

Q. Are textured hybrid floors harder to clean?

A.  These floors are quite simple to clean, particularly as they’re incredibly hardy and won’t crack, buckle or lift with changing temperatures.

Use soft-bristle vacuums or microfibre mops to clean regularly and remove loose dirt. Warm water is enough to keep them in pristine condition.

Added bonus #3: Hybrid floors are stain resistant and odour proof AND textured selections are great for disguising rare scuffs and scratches.

Q: What else do I need to know in terms of maintenance?

A. Most importantly, do not use any chemicals on hybrid flooring.

Avoid scrubbing, as it may wear down the texture.

Lift, rather than drag or push, furniture along it – or move items with a mat or towel underneath to prevent damage.

Avoid using steam mops on any hybrid floors (even though they are fully waterproof).

Added bonus #4: These floors are impressively hardwearing and bring timeless appeal to any style of home.
