Wear versus appearance
A floor can remain physically functional after it no longer meets an organization's appearance standard.
Localized failure
Entrances and turning zones may wear much faster than low-traffic areas.
Repairability
Modular products can extend the useful life of the whole installation by replacing damaged areas.
Plan scenarios
For capital planning, use conservative/base/long-life scenarios tied to the actual use case.
Commercial flooring decisions depend on the actual substrate, moisture conditions, traffic, cleaning regime, accessibility requirements, fire/building rules, manufacturer instructions and local code. This site is for planning and comparison, not installation instructions.
