1.Why UV Resistance Matters

Boats, docks, and yachts are constantly exposed to intense sunlight and saltwater.
Strong ultraviolet (UV) radiation can cause ordinary foam materials to fade, harden, crack, and age over time.

For customers who frequently go boating, UV resistance directly determines the service life and appearance retention of marine flooring.

In high UV regions like Australia or tropical areas, standard EVA foam may fade or become brittle in just six months. 
Therefore, choosing UV-resistant materials is crucial for long-term durability and aesthetics.


2. How UV Radiation Affects EVA Foam


UV rays are high-energy radiation that breaks down the molecular chains in EVA material. Once this happens, the foam gradually loses its original structure and performance. 


Common visible issues include:

  • Chalky surface – oxidation creates a white powder layer.
  • Color fading – pigments are decomposed by UV light.
  • Brittleness and cracking – molecular degradation reduces elasticity and strength.

These problems not only affect the flooring’s appearance but also reduce its anti-slip performance, impacting safety onboard.



3. UV Testing Standards and Certification Levels

Our Melors EVA + PE composite flooring has passed a UV 3000-hour resistance test, maintaining over 95% color retention with no visible cracks or brittleness.

We proudly hold several quality certifications that demonstrate product reliability:
  • UV Resistance Certificate – 3000 Hours Tested
  • ISO9001 Quality Management Certification
  • BSCI Ethical Production Certification
  • 3M Authorized Distributor – ensures strong, lasting adhesion

These professional standards guarantee that Melors flooring maintains stable performance even under prolonged sunlight.
