Quick, clean and easy flooring installations. UPLIFT, PREPARE, DPM, LAY AND TRAFFIC IN A DAY OR SIMPLY OVERLAY!

With SwitchTec® it is now possible to renovate floors within a day without causing unnecessary disturbances or closing businesses. Floor coverings can be replaced quickly, quietly, and cleanly, and then, years later, can be removed without leaving any residues. switchTec is designed to meet the needs of clients and can be used discreetly, ensuring regular business hours are not disrupted during installation and future removal. The tape enables quick and clean flooring renovations, allowing floors to be refurbished almost anywhere, from shops and offices to hospitals and homes.

UZIN SwitchTec® is a range of self-adhesive tapes which are wound onto rolls. All SwitchTec products provide an alternative to wet adhesives or loose-lay systems when installing floor coverings or skirting. Sigan is one range of products from switchTec, whereby various floor coverings, such as vinyl, luxury vinyl tiles, and carpets, can be fitted onto subfloors or existing floor coverings. UZIN Plurafilm Hydro is an innovative moisture-resistant tape that allows floors to be installed onto unheated, damp cement screeds without any limitation on moisture. It is also possible for floors with underfoot heating, but prior commissioning is required.

The benefits of SWITCHTEC® TAPES.

Traditional flooring refurbishments can be costly and may take several days or even weeks, especially if old floor coverings need to be removed and the subfloor requires preparation to ensure it is flat and ready for the new flooring. In contrast, UZIN SwitchTec Tapes enable fast refurbishments that can be completed on the same day or the next day. This innovative solution allows for the quick installation of luxury vinyl tile (LVT), vinyl, carpet, or rubber over damp cement screeds or existing floor coverings, with the floor immediately ready for foot traffic once the tape is applied.

This method is ideal for rapid refurbishments, quick repairs, emergency fixes, retail reopenings, fast-track installations, and projects with tight turnarounds. It offers instant usability, minimal downtime, a fast turnaround, and cost-effective project delivery.

What is switchTec®?

switchTec® is a range of self adhesive tapes which are wound onto rolls. A micro-perforated polyethylene film is coated on both sides in the factory using different dispersion adhesives. The adhesive strengths are matched to various substrate types. All switchTec® products provide an alternative to wet adhesives or loose lay systems when installing floor coverings or skirting. Sigan® is one range of products from switchTec® whereby a variety of floor coverings such vinyl, luxury vinyl tiles and carpets can be fitted onto subfloors or existing floor coverings.

Sigan®. How does it work?

A new floor covering can easily be applied onto an existing floor covering (or subfloor) without having to remove the old covering. This not only avoids the normal disturbances caused when renovating, but also saves the client time and money. The new floor covering can then be used and walked upon immediately. When the covering applied becomes worn after years of use, it can be removed quickly and easily, without leaving any adhesive residues.
