Long gone are the days of linoleum floors and homeowners are also quickly tearing out carpet in favor of wood or tile flooring. But have you heard of vintage vinyl flooring? It’s the modern-day linoleum while also being a great alternative to carpets and rugs.

Vintage vinyl floor cloths are durable, flexible, and beautiful. There are a lot of different styles and patterns to choose from that will match the style and decor of any home. They also come in a variety of sizes, from basic shapes to runners; you can also lay it so that it covers your entire floor, wall-to-wall. 

Why We Love Vintage Vinyl 

Inexpensive 

First and foremost, vintage vinyl is an easy way to cover old or damaged floors without having to rip up any existing flooring. It’s a great choice for homeowners and renters alike when looking for a quick and easy flooring option. There’s no need to pay for expensive floor removal and no need to plan for installation. Vintage vinyl is also easily replaceable and can be easily moved around.

Low-Maintenance 

Vintage vinyl floor cloths come with a non-skid backing, making it stay in place without adhesive. If you do end up moving it around, it won’t leave any residue on your existing floor. It also doesn’t collect dust, making it a wonderful protecting flooring that doesn’t cause allergies. 

Child-Proof and Pet-Friendly 

Just like other vinyl flooring options, it’s easy to clean; just the occasional wipe or mop will suffice! This makes it great for households that have children or pets. Not only will this flooring option protect your existing floor from damage, but it’s also easy for wiping up spills or accidents.

Durable 

Vintage vinyl’s durability is one of the reasons why it’s most popularly used in high-traffic areas of the home, including kitchens, living rooms, hallways, and more. Their durability also makes them useful for outdoor spaces like patios and decks. You may even see vintage vinyl used in many commercial spaces, including offices, hotels, and restaurants.  

The Future of Vintage Vinyl 

Vintage vinyl floor cloths are such great material and there are plenty of other ways to use it to your advantage. We’re excited to see how it evolves in the home; we wouldn’t be surprised if homeowners started using it as a wall covering or even as a tabletop option.
