FAQ
❓ How to choose marine EVA flooring?
Consider your environment (freshwater/saltwater), sun exposure, non-slip needs, and budget. We recommend UV resistance of 3000+ hours and high-density material.
❓ Is thickness important?
Yes. Thickness affects comfort and durability. 6mm–10mm is common. Melors offers multiple thickness options.
❓ Do I need professional installation?
Not necessarily. Melors products are self-adhesive. Most customers can install themselves with our guidance. For complex boat shapes, contact Melors for professional advice.
