- "Smooth, moppable surface" and "ESD compliance" typically describe vinyl, rubber, or access floor coverings.
- "CRI Green Label Plus" is primarily a carpet and carpet cushion certification.

R3: Here are pictures of what is existing (See attachment).

Q4: Question: What type of material? ESD carpet, ESD vinyl (glue-down or interlocking), ESD rubber? The spec provided doesn't specify clearly.
