Flooring systems

With the transition towards electrification of vehicles, there is a growing interest in the design and formulation of flooring and carpet systems.

These are being adapted to safely accommodate electric vehicle batteries under the floor pan, with an increasing interest in flame retardancy to counter concerns about flame propagation. Flooring systems also include acoustical treatment that is applied under the carpet – the largest such component here is the dashmat, which is made from a combination of soft materials including foams, felts and/or nonwoven materials, with a layer of limp solid material such as rubber EPDM.

Avery Dennison offers pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes to cover all these flooring applications. Whether it’s bonding additional layers in target areas where additional support is needed, securing functional parts to carpets, or attaching carpet trims to interior trims to create a premium appearance, our portfolio has you covered.
