With growing pollution from buildings and infrastructures in urban areas, consumers are showing an increasing inclination towards adopting flooring products that have low levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and low carbon emissions.

As a result, several floor coating manufacturers are developing sustainable flooring solutions to meet this changing consumer behavior. For example, Ecoflor, a UK-based flooring company, has developed Smooth PU (polyurethane) and Liquid Vinyl floors that have long life expectancy and can be re-sealed or modified within premises. As a result, these floors are not only sustainable but are also cost-effective. Similarly, US-based Liquid Floors has been offering green epoxy floor coatings that have zero VOC content. Thus, the widening availability of green floor coatings will hugely benefit the growth of this market.
