A floor sticker is the only sticker that people walk on, and that changes everything. It’s not the image that matters, but the layer on top: how many footsteps it can withstand, and whether the whole thing remains slip-resistant enough. That’s why everything here is given a non-slip coating.
How long a floor sticker How long it lasts depends mainly on how much traffic it gets. Expect it to last a month or two in a busy shop aisle, and two years in a meeting room where it’s kept by the door. That’s a bigger difference than between the materials themselves.
Outdoors, it’s a different story. Standard film doesn’t adhere to tarmac or concrete, as these surfaces are rough and porous. That’s where the asphalt sticker, which gets lodged in the structure and remains there for half a year. This is common on a course, in a car park or at an event with an access route.
If you’re looking for something that isn’t a sticker but a floor covering that you can lay and roll up again, have a look at the flooring.
