Abstract: An easy-to-install and remove flooring system comprises three components: 1) a plurality of rolled-out liners, 2) a plurality of tiles, particularly resilient tiles, and 3) an adhesive adhering the tile to the liner. A grid pattern matching the size of the tiles is printed on the liner to enable easy centering and balancing of the tile in the room. The edge portions of adjacent liners are adjacent or overlapped. At least some of the tiles are adhered to two of the liners.

Abstract: Disclosed are both a decorative laminate and a method for making the decorative laminate. The decorative laminate includes a laminated layer having particulates trapped within a film. The trapped particulates impart the appearance of three-dimensional depth to the decorative laminate. Additionally, a second laminated film having a printed pattern can be laminated to the decorative laminate. The decorative laminate may be formed by laminating a freestanding decorative film composite comprising a particulate embedded film and a print component to a substrate.
