Luxury Vinyl Flooring

Product description

Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) is a resilient flooring product made with multiple layers, including a printed design layer that mimics the appearance of natural stone or ceramic tile, and a durable, protective wear layer. Its benefits include realistic aesthetics, superior durability, 100% waterproof construction, ease of maintenance, and lower installation costs compared to natural materials, making it a popular choice for both residential and commercial spaces.

Construction & Composition

Multi-layered structure: LVT consists of several layers, including a backing layer, a printed design layer for realistic visuals, and a clear, protective wear layer at the top.

Wear Layer: This top layer determines the durability and scratch resistance of the flooring, with higher mil (thousandths of an inch) numbers indicating greater thickness and resilience.

Waterproof properties: LVT is primarily composed of PVC, making it inherently waterproof and suitable for installation in wet areas like kitchens and bathrooms.

Appearance & Aesthetics

Mimics natural materials: LVT is engineered to replicate the look of real stone, ceramic tile, or other natural surfaces, offering a wide range of designs from authentic woodgrains to bright colors.

Realistic visuals: High-quality LVT features a photographic print layer to achieve incredibly realistic textures and patterns, giving spaces a high-end look and feel.

Easy Maintenance: It is simple to clean and maintain, often requiring just a two-bucket cleaning system.

Installation: LVT can be easier and quicker to install than traditional tile, contributing to lower overall project costs.

Common Applications

Residential: Its versatility, durability, and realistic designs make LVT a favored option for homes, including bathrooms, kitchens, and living areas.
