[NHCOLL-L:1849] flooring

[casjens at umnh.utah.edu]

WE are trying to determine what kinds of flooring would be acceptable in a 
textile storage room.  WE have read references to vinyl with scavenger 
compounds and "clean room grade" non pliabel tile, but haven't been able to 
track these down.

One conservator said to look at rubber, the next told me not to even consider 
rubber--so we need more information!

We would love to hear of products and suppliers, or even what specifications 
we should be looking for (no pvc, but what else?) 

Thank you in advance for any information you can provide
