Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of a web composed essentially of a granulate and a polymer. In order for the web to have good suction against the substrate after it has been laid on a floor, the interstices between the granulate particles are not allowed to be filled with the polymer. According to the invention, this is brought about in that the polymer is applied to the top side of the granulate. After the polymer melts, the polymer seeps down through the granulate. By means of targeted control or regulation, this sinking process is influenced before the polymer reaches the underside of the web. The invention also comprises a sensor and the product as such.

Abstract: A resilient floor covering with a regenerative, dirt-repellent surface contains a matrix based on natural and/or synthetic materials and at least one substance that is capable of migrating within the matrix and the amount of the substance is in excess of its compatibility in the matrix. The resilient floor covering according to the invention preferably has an embossed surface and a matrix, into which a particulate material with greater hardness than that of the matrix is incorporated. The floor covering is characterized by improved soiling behavior and increased wear resistance.
