‘PVC floors are quiet, certainly more so than laminate, and much tougher, so they’re super safe. PVC planks have also offered even more options in recent years such as herringbone or concrete-look pattern,’ Mano Demmers explains. ‘We at VICstairs are now working on PVC decors from the biggest European manufacturers, such as Forbo, Tarkett, and IVC. We have a full programme underway, even one where open stairs can be furnished all round and edges or jowls can be part of the same design.’

Innovation in one piece
‘Where we make the difference with VICstairs is with our expertise and innovative solutions, carried out by dedicated fitters. VICstairs was the brainchild of real staircase lovers and you notice that in our unique PVC stair covers in one piece. They’re sturdy and seamless, have no profile, and fit perfectly with the right staircase, step for step. To make sure that all staircase lovers can have top quality stair covers, we distribute our licensed PVC stair covers throughout Europe.’
Unique to VICstairs stair covers is that they are in one piece. And so, they are sturdier and seamless and have no profile, so they are lifelike steps which professionals can fit quickly and easily. VICstairs leads the field in design and home fashion due to the realistic relief, the matt top layer, and the many looks and colours of the most prominent vinyl manufacturers. The programme is complete with steps, risers, and jowls and offers the most attractive solution for furnishing around open staircases.

Stylish, strong, sound insulating, waterproof, and safe
‘It will surprise no one to hear that leading floor manufacturers are heavily committed to PVC,’ Mano Demmers explains. ‘The material has rapidly ousted laminate, wood, or tiles because it literally takes you in all directions, from the living room to the kitchen and from modern wood to rigid concrete design. Moreover, the material is easy to maintain and is ideal for combination with floor heating.’

‘You also get exactly the same look with VICstairs on the stairs. The PVC on the stairs is stylish, strong, sound insulating, waterproof, and, in particular, safe. We give a 15-year guarantee on it. Moreover, the VICstairs stairs system is developed in such a way that you can furnish both closed and open staircases easily with a high finish level. For the various decors of the stair covers we work together with companies such as Tarkett, Forbo, and IVC.’

‘What I find so nice about all this is that you can deliver perfect work because you literally see the finish on all sides. Unsightly strips and aluminium edges not only form an eyesore, but also they are extremely dangerous for bare feet. With VICstairs, the staircase shines from top to bottom and from the front to the back because everything is finished down to the last detail.’

Ready in one day
Perhaps we haven’t yet mentioned the biggest benefit. VICstairs stair covers are fitted very quickly. You fix everything in a single day. ‘That’s right,’ Mr Demmers continues. ‘Whereas a stair fitter often needs two days with other systems, with VICstairs you’re ready in a single day, even with adhesive residue and old stairs. Does the client not have a stair fitter? No problem! We have experienced professionals in each region who can be hired. We also offer the possibility for both advanced and less experienced professionals to take some training.’

New dealers wanted
VICstairs now covers the Dutch market completely and has its sights set on Belgium. They are expanding their structure there and looking for extra dealers.
‘I call interested people not to hesitate to join us. Further development in Belgium is a top priority, so we can certainly use motivated partners,’ Mano Demmers concludes.
