                  A. VINYL FLOORING
             


                               1. SUSTAINABILITY
·      Vinyl floors are very sustainable. They require much less energy to produce than processing raw materials. Vinyl is composed largely of salt, which is a very available material. Additionally, vinyl floors are made of water-based solvents and recycled materials, which add to their sustainability factor. Their durability makes them a suitable choice for high traffic areas, and therefore makes them a greener product since they don’t have to be replaced as often.
 2. INSTALLATION
·      Requires physical labor and adhesive
                               3. MAITENANCE
·      Spills are easily wiped and cleaned
·      Avoid using harsh cleaning products
·      Rinse well after mopping to remove all soap  
 4. CALCULATIONS
·   Reception area= 101 ft2 + Toilet Area= 54 ft2 + Conference Room= 165 ft2= 320 ft2
·   320 + 15%= 368 ft2
·      $4.35 x 368= $1600.80
·      Boxes needed: 28


                  B. CEILING TILES
              

                               1. SUSTAINABILITY
·      Made from recycled materials
 2. INSTALLATION

                               3. MAITENANCE
·      Remove dirt by brushing or vacuuming
·      Wall cleaner can be used on it
·      Avoid using too much water when cleaning
 4. CALCULATIONS
·      Reception area= 101 ft2 + Toilet Area= 54 ft2 + Conference Room= 165 ft2= 320 ft2
·      Ceiling tiles= 12”x12”, so 320 tiles are needed
·      Tiles come in cartons of 36.
·      9 cartons are needed
·      Therefore, this comes to a total of 324 ft2
·      342 x $1.19= $385.56

 2.  INSTALLATION
·      Requires physical labor
                               3. MAITENANCE
·      Spills are easily wiped and cleaned
·      Avoid using harsh cleaning products             
 4. CALCULATIONS
·   Reception Area= [(9x10)(2)]+[(11x10)(2)]= 400 ft2
Toilet Area = [(6x10)(2)]+[(9x10)(2)]= 300 ft2
Conference Room= [(11x10)(2)]+[(15x10)(2)]= 520 ft2
Total area= 1220 ft2
·   1 gal paint covers 400 ft2
1220/400=3.05
Therefore, 4 gallons are needed
·   $70 x 4= $280
