Offene Klickfliesen aus Kunststoff oder Weich-PVC Klickfliesen: Test, Vergleich & alle Infos

When it comes to designing the floor, there are several options to choose from. Two popular options are open click tiles

and soft PVC tiles.

Both options offer numerous benefits, but there are also differences that should be considered. In this product comparison, we will take a closer look at the differences between the two options and help you make the best choice for your floor.

Material and construction

Open click tiles are made of a mixture of polypropylene or polyethylene. These materials are known for their strength, stability and durability. The tiles are manufactured by injection molding and can come in a variety of colors and designs.

Soft PVC plastic tiles for garages are mainly made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is produced by injection molding. This material is very flexible and resistant to impact and wear. Soft PVC plastic tiles are usually available in various colors and designs.

In terms of construction, hard plastic tiles and soft PVC plastic tiles differ.

Hard plastic tiles usually have an open grid system to increase slip resistance. They are usually smaller and thicker than soft PVC plastic tiles, which increases their strength and stability.

Soft PVC plastic tiles, on the other hand, often have a smooth surface that is easy to clean. They are usually thinner and more flexible than hard plastic tiles, which means they can better adapt to uneven floors.

Rounded surface Special look due to 3D structure Thanks to the open structure, dirt can fall through and liquids can dry (no puddle formation) Easy to clean with a vacuum cleaner and steam jet Optional colors possible Loadable up to 30 t/m² Resistant to acids, alkalis, bases and hydrocarbons. The optimum material and ambient temperature is between 15 and 25°C. Since polypropylene expands when heated, a distance to fixed components (walls, pillars, door sills, passageways, etc.) should be planned. Our recommendation: The expansion joint should be 1% of the total length and at least 3 cm. In order to enable expansion in areas of approx. 50 m² or more, we recommend planning expansion parts in addition to the all-round expansion joint. notice The optimum material and ambient temperature is between 15 and 25°C.

Aesthetics and design

Another important factor when choosing between hard plastic tiles and soft PVC plastic tiles for garages is aesthetics and design. Both types of tiles are available in a variety of colors and patterns, allowing you to customize your floor to your liking.

Open click tiles usually have a smoother surface that creates a more elegant and modern look. They are usually available in glossy finishes and offer one of a variety of colors, ranging from classic black and white combinations to vibrant, bright colors.

Soft PVC plastic tiles tend to be a bit more flexible and often have a textured surface that allows for non-slip walking on them. And patterns available and can.

Overall, both hard plastic tiles and soft PVC plastic tiles are good choices for garages in terms of aesthetics and design. The choice depends on what look and appearance you prefer.

Colors and designs

With open click tiles, there are usually more color choices compared to soft PVC plastic tiles.

In terms of color choices, open click tiles often offer a wider variety of options, including multi-color designs and patterns, there are also different surface textures such as smooth, non-slip and embossed. The colors and patterns can also often be customized to meet individual preferences and requirements.

Durability and resilience

Both open click tiles and soft PVC plastic tiles are durable floor coverings designed to withstand heavy loads.

Open click tiles are usually made of polypropylene, which makes them more resistant to scratches and wear. They can withstand a heavy load, making them a popular choice for garage floors.

Soft PVC plastic tiles are made of flexible PVC material that is also designed to withstand high loads. The material is soft and provides good cushioning against shock and impact, making it a good choice for workshops, garages where heavy tools and equipment are stored.

Some manufacturers also offer additional protective layers to make the tiles more resistant to scratches and wear.

In terms of durability, soft PVC plastic tiles tend to be more durable than grid tiles due to their more resistant material.

However, durability can depend on several factors such as installation, exposure and maintenance. If the tiles are properly installed and maintained, they can last for a great many years.

Matching to the subfloor

Installation: Hard plastic tiles can be installed on various surfaces such as concrete, asphalt, wood or ceramic. Installation usually does not require gluing or taping, but locking the tiles in place with a click system. Installation of soft PVC plastic tiles is similar.

Substrate: Both hard plastic and soft PVC plastic tiles can conform to uneven substrates. However, with hard plastic tiles, small irregularities in the subfloor can result in an uneven appearance because the tiles are not as flexible as soft PVC tiles. Soft PVC tiles can adapt better to uneven substrates.

Liquids

Grid tiles have an open structure that allows liquids to flow through the tiles and drain underneath. This can be beneficial in a garage or workshop, as it allows for easy cleaning and protects the tiles from damage caused by spills.

Another advantage of grid tiles:

The open structure of the tiles allows water to drain quickly, which keeps the floor dry.

In contrast, PVC tiles and other closed floor coverings are impervious to water, so spills remain on the surface of the tiles. This makes it easier to wipe up spills, but it can also cause damage to the tiles if the liquids are not removed quickly enough.

The choice of flooring therefore depends on the individual needs and requirements that apply to the particular area of use.

Comfort:

Soft PVC plastic tiles provide higher shock absorption, making them more comfortable to walk on than hard plastic tiles. This can be especially beneficial for workshops, garages that are also used as work areas.

Maintenance:

Hard plastic tiles are low maintenance, requiring only occasional mopping or vacuuming. However, if a tile becomes damaged, it can be replaced.

Soft PVC plastic tiles are also low maintenance, but because of their flexible construction, they can be replaced if damaged.

Weather Resistance:

Hard plastic tiles are UV resistant and durable. They are also resistant to moisture and water.

Soft PVC plastic tiles are also weather resistant, but their resiliency can be compromised in extreme heat or cold.

Soundproofing:

Hard plastic tiles provide some sound insulation and can help reduce the sound of car tires or other loud noises

Soft PVC plastic tiles provide better sound insulation than hard plastic tiles due to their softer construction.

Safety:

Hard plastic tiles provide a slip-resistant surface and are ideal for garages where oil and lubricants can spill onto the floor. Soft PVC plastic tiles are also slip-resistant and provide extra cushioning that reduces the risk of injury from falls.

Environmental friendliness:

Hard plastic tiles and soft PVC tiles manufactured and can be recycled.

Noise reduction

Another important consideration when choosing flooring for garages is noise insulation. Both types of plastic tiles can provide some insulation, but soft PVC tiles have better soundproofing than hard plastic tiles due to their flexible nature. If your garage is attached to the house, this can be an important factor in minimizing noise pollution.

Exterior

Cleaning hard plastic tiles and soft PVC plastic tiles for garages is usually quite simple and straightforward. Both materials are water resistant and can be easily cleaned of dirt and dust with a broom or vacuum cleaner. If necessary, they can also be cleaned with a damp cloth or mop.

Price:

An important factor in choosing between hard plastic tiles and soft PVC plastic tiles for workshop or garages is price. In general, initial costs are pretty much the same.

It should also be noted that both types of tiles represent an investment in the workshop or garage. High quality flooring can increase the value of the property and also help the workshop, garage last longer and require less maintenance.

Therefore, the decision between hard plastic tiles and soft PVC tiles should not be made solely on the basis of price, but taking into account the overall value and long-term investment in the property.

In summary:

Are there advantages and disadvantages to both hard plastic tiles and soft PVC tiles. If you have a workshop or garage that is exposed to heavy tool and equipment traffic, PVC tiles may be the best choice because they are more durable. However, if you have a garage where colors and design are important, hard plastic tiles might be a better choice. Ultimately, though, it depends on your individual needs and preferences.
