Are you looking for a reliable vinyl flooring manufacturer?
Nowadays, it is very easy to find a vinyl flooring manufacturer on the website,
Searching "vinyl flooring manufacturer" on Alibaba.com or Google can find a bunch of them, but the reality is that it took us a lot of time to select qualified suppliers, and we communicated for a long time and then confirmed that the supplier's ability does not meet the requirements. How can we quickly identify a qualified vinyl flooring supplier?

Some of the benefits of Ultrasurfacefloor as custom vinyl flooring manufacturers
We are an ethical vinyl flooring manufacturer
We have been making vinyl flooring since 2002

We offer low minimum order quantities (MOQ) of 500sqm per design/colour in any size
There are mainly four types of buyers in the international business of vinyl flooring products, which are importers, wholesalers, retailers, and engineering companies; their needs are different, but they have a common need, which is to manage their own supply chain, You must find a way to identify a vinyl flooring manufacturer with trustworthy capabilities, Here are some clues that can help you learn whether a vinyl flooring manufacturer has qualified capacity
How do verify whether the vinyl flooring manufacturer has qualified production capacity?
As a qualified factory, the most basic requirement is to have some certificates, such as social responsibility certificate and ISO-14001 standard certificate; in addition, a qualified factory must be certified by a third party, such as SGS
We can clearly identify the annual output value of the factory, production line conditions, organizational structure, product testing report, and product certificate ( floor score/CE, etc.) in this report
How do verify whether the vinyl flooring manufacturer has qualified product quality?
Product quality is the basis of all transactions. Manufacturers that can produce high-quality floors have at least the most basic qualification certificates and a series of product testing reports
In addition, excellent floor manufacturers are willing to provide customers with quality inspection reports. On the quality inspection reports, you can see a lot of inspections about product quality evaluation items: such as size, thickness, color matching, packaging, wear resistance Testing, scratch resistance testing, shrinkage, and more (we have our own laboratory to support you in testing specific properties)
How to verify that the PVC Vinyl flooring manufacturer is worthy of long-term cooperation?
Every company wants to have a stable supply chain. A stable supply chain is not only related to the company's risk control, but also to the stability of the company's operations.
Flooring manufacturers that are worthy of long-term cooperation must have at least 10 years of experience. You can make a basic judgment based on the company's establishment period. In theory, a company with a longer operating time will be more trustworthy than a company with a short operating time.
In addition to some explicit capability assessments, we also need to pay attention to other capabilities of the supplier.

What Else Makes a great vinyl flooring manufacturer?
Other than being able to make vinyl flooring that stands out in a good way, vinyl flooring manufacturers should be ethical, sustainable, and transparent. You can take the easy way like so many modern-slavery-benefiting inhumane huge brands and flat out lie about being sustainable and ethical.
Or you can do the right thing and actually find a factory that ticks all the boxes when it comes to fair working conditions and a positive impact on the environment. See it for yourself in this virtual tour of our facility in China.
Ethical / Eco-friendly /Transparent
1. How to spot an ethical vinyl flooring manufacturer
If the manufacturer is really ethical, their workers should have enough free time to have a life outside of work. Regarding the compensation, they should be paid at least the national minimum wage of their respective country. Also, they should receive bonus rates for overtime and work during weekends. That’s a bare minimum. You’d be surprised how often this isn’t the case.
This is where we as vinyl flooring manufacturers believe to really stand out. All our workers:
Earn at least 20% more than the China minimum wage
Work eight-hour shifts
Receive overtime bonuses (which is a legal requirement often overlooked or misrepresented in the construction industry)
Receive birthday, childbirth, and marriage bonuses
2. How to spot an eco-friendly vinyl flooring manufacturer
Ideally, the manufacturer would either have the ISO-14001 standard or a social compliance certificate. Standards and certificates guarantee that all the processes in the factory are carried out in a way that’s safe for the environment.
But even without certificates and standards, a vinyl flooring manufacturer should still find a way to stay sustainable. They can handle wastewater safely and handle pvc waste so that it doesn’t end up in landfills. Ideally, have an alternative source of energy like wind electrical systems or solar panels.
3. Transparent vinyl flooring manufacturers
There are many vinyl flooring factories out there with all kinds of social compliance certificates and ISO standards that actually break almost every certification rule.
The thing is, many social compliance audits are carried out in a way that gives the manufacturers enough time to cook the books and intimidate and train the employees to lie during interviews in order for the company to obtain the certificates.
Once they do, they have a perfect smokescreen for whatever happens behind closed doors.
Don’t get us wrong, there are definitely vinyl flooring factories that deserved all their certification. Such a vinyl flooring factory would welcome visitors, be it existing or potential clients.
If a vinyl flooring manufacturer you get in touch with acts evasively to the mention of a factory visit, that’s a major red flag and you should run away from them as fast as you can. It’s likely they’re doing something wrong, even if they boast with shiny certificates attached to their name.
Factory visits at Ultrasurfacefloor are a common occurrence. What’s more, we have an apartment in the factory complex so you could spend days immersing yourself in the vinyl flooring manufacturing experience. Once we start cooperating, we’d even film the manufacturing process of your product so that your brand can really benefit from the radical transparency which is an ever-growing trend in fashion.
