Manufacturer's detailed explanation of LVT, WPC, SPC flooring

WPC flooring manufacturer:

To clarify what LVT, WPC, and SPC flooring are, we need to start with PVC flooring. The so-called PVC flooring, commonly known as plastic flooring, is a general term.

LVT flooring is a soft and flexible elastic flooring that can even be bent into rolls. It has high requirements for leveling and requires professionals to lay it, making it suitable for large areas.

WPC flooring is called wood plastic flooring due to the addition of wood powder, which combines the waterproofing and stability of LVT.

However, due to the presence of foaming agents, wood plastic flooring is not resistant to excessive temperature differences and exposure to sunlight, and its properties are not as stable as SPC flooring.

SPC flooring is a rigid plastic flooring that can also bend, but compared to LVT flooring, it has much less curvature.

Due to the high production cost of using new materials, the selling price of good SPC boards is often not lower than that of reinforced composite flooring.

Its material brings many excellent properties, such as fire resistance, waterproofing, moisture resistance, slip resistance, antibacterial, and so on.

Summary of Plastic Flooring

Stone plastic flooring has more stable properties than wood plastic flooring and LVT flooring, and is also formaldehyde free, mold resistant, fire-resistant, and waterproof. There is a trend of explosion in the future.

Why use plastic flooring?

Chinese people are paying more and more attention to the environmental protection and safety of their home environment, and every family is striving to use the most environmentally friendly building materials.

Just like the reinforced composite flooring mentioned above, the amount of adhesive used in the flooring itself is large. It's okay to buy products that have passed layers of inspection for import and export. If you encounter unscrupulous merchants, your formaldehyde emissions may directly explode.

So, Sister Miao's strategy is to choose formaldehyde free products as much as possible. For example, metal hangers like IKEA Aiger and Platinum Nai, and products like stone plastic flooring that are completely adhesive free.

Speaking of stone plastic flooring itself, it has stable properties and is resistant to mold, moisture, and fire. Generally, it is laid on rough ground with 7mm thick stone plastic flooring, and the leveling standard is the same as ordinary flooring, without the need for cement self leveling.

Lay on existing tiles/flooring with 5mm thickness, occupying less floor height and costing less.

Used with underfloor heating, it conducts heat quickly without deformation and has excellent stability.
