My experience converting an old Sprinter into a weekend camper and the flooring part nobody talks about

Been working on this van conversion for about four months now, mostly weekends and late nights when the kids are asleep, and I finally got to the floor stage which I thought would be the easiest part of the whole build but turned into this whole research project I wasn't expecting. The original rubber flooring was disgusting after years of commercial use so I ripped everything out down to the metal and then had to figure out what to put back that wouldn't mold or stink or weigh a ton. Someone in one of the overlanding groups shared a link to https://www.crateco.ae/product....list/vehicle-or-floo and I spent a good hour just reading through the specifications trying to understand the difference between all the materials they offer. Ended up going with the ventilated plastic option because the guy I spoke to there explained how the channels underneath allow airflow which makes so much sense for a camper where you're cooking and sleeping and there's condensation to deal with, something I completely overlooked when I first started planning. Cut it to size with a circular saw which was way easier than I expected, the plastic doesn't splinter like plywood so the edges came out clean even with my questionable DIY skills. Only been on two short trips so far but no weird smells and everything stays put way better than the old setup where my gear would slide around on every roundabout.
