Floor made from individual elements

Abstract

The aim of the invention is an embodiment of a floor with high resistance, formed from individual elements which are light and easily transported and also easily removed and thus may be used in multiple applications. According to the invention, said aim is achieved whereby the flat elements are multi-layered plates, each with a thin pressure and wear resistant plate provided on the upper surface thereof and a light material layer, fixed by means of an adhesive layer arranged thereunder. The invention further relates to a floor made from individual flat elements.
