The Best Practice Guidelines for Resilient Floor Coverings Planning and Installation set out industry recognised methods for planning and installation that supports retail, supplier, installers and apprentice/retail training. The purpose is to make available flooring information for everyday flooring practices that are collectively supported by the flooring industry via the Floor NZ website.
