LVT & SPC
Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT) and Stone Plastic Composite (SPC) flooring are two popular types of vinyl flooring known for their durability, aesthetics, and ease of maintenance. Here's a brief overview of each:
Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT)
Stone Plastic Composite (SPC) Flooring
LVT is a type of vinyl flooring that replicates the appearance of natural materials like hardwood, stone, or tile. It consists of multiple layers, including a wear layer, a printed layer with the design, a vinyl core, and sometimes an attached underlayment for added comfort and sound absorption. LVT is available in various colors, patterns, and textures, allowing for a wide range of design possibilities.
Key Features of LVT:
Realistic Appearance:Â LVT mimics the look of natural materials with high-quality printing technology, giving you the visual appeal of hardwood or stone without the maintenance.
Durability: The wear layer on top provides excellent resistance to scratches, stains, and wear, making LVT suitable for high-traffic areas.
Water Resistance:*LVT is generally water-resistant, making it a great choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas prone to moisture.
Easy Maintenance: Regular sweeping or vacuuming and occasional damp mopping are typically enough to keep LVT clean and in good condition.
Comfort:Â Some LVT options come with an attached underlayment, providing a softer feel underfoot and better sound absorption.
SPC is a type of rigid core vinyl flooring that consists of a core layer made of limestone powder, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and stabilizers. The core layer is extremely durable and rigid, providing excellent dimensional stability and impact resistance. Like LVT, SPC flooring features a wear layer with a printed design on top.
Key Features of SPC:
Extreme Durability:* SPC's rigid core makes it exceptionally resistant to impacts, making it ideal for areas with heavy foot traffic or even commercial spaces.
Waterproof: SPC flooring is entirely waterproof, making it suitable for any room in the house, including bathrooms, kitchens, and basements.
Easy Installation: Most SPC flooring uses a click-and-lock installation system, making it straightforward for DIY installations.
Low Maintenance: SPC is easy to clean and maintain, requiring only regular sweeping or vacuuming and damp mopping as needed.
