Many people like the natural texture of wooden floors, but they are worried
that wooden floors are not waterproof and difficult to maintain, so they choose
to use SPC flooring instead.
SPC Flooring Supplier will tell you.
Installing Spc Flooring
SPC floor refers to a new type of environmentally friendly floor material invented in response to national emission reductions with wooden texture patterns on the surface. The main raw material of spc floor is polychloride. It has bright lines and clear patterns. It has the advantages of 0 formaldehyde, waterproof, moisture-proof, wear-resistant, flame-retardant, non-corrosive, long service life and easy to clean.
They are versatile
Due to their rigid core, SPC vinyl floors are perfectly resistant to changes in temperature and humidity, and are recommended for any region or geographic area, and for both businesses and private homes.
In addition, this type of flooring can be installed on any surface.
They offer high resistance to shocks and impacts
Thanks to their manufacturing materials, SPC vinyl floors are highly resistant to scratches and impacts.
Due to its multilayer composition, SPC vinyl flooring is also resistant to office chair wheels, toys and pet traffic.
They have great insulation/soundproofing capabilities
Although not their most defining feature, SPC vinyl floors have good soundproofing capabilities and are a noise-minimizing alternative to WPC flooring, offering a quiet experience and maximum walking comfort.
Easy to install
All L’Antic Colonial vinyl floors are easy to install. In the case of SPC vinyl flooring, we have click-on models that do not require glue or additional tools. In this way, it is possible to renovate offices or work areas in a short time: it is only necessary to adjust the plank to be installed lengthwise to the one already in place and then apply a couple of light blows with a rubber hammer and a block.
In addition, the uninstallation of this type of flooring is just as easy, allowing it to be quickly dismantled for replacement or renovation.
They have many aesthetic possibilities
SPC floors have very realistic finishes that mimic the look and feel of materials such as wood, accurately reproducing its pores and grains. The best example? The FEUDAL series, available in various shades.
Easy to clean
Like other vinyl flooring, SPC floors are very hygienic, as they have a sealed surface that prevents the proliferation of bacteria.
Its UV coating also increases its resistance to wear caused by the direct impact of sunlight.
resistant
As we have already mentioned, the key lies in its manufacture, which combines a mixture of PVC and stone powder.
This results in a particularly resistant flooring, which is more stable to temperature changes and less demanding in terms of floor planimetry than other floorings.
The resistance of SPC flooring is also due to the arrangement of the materials.
Vinyl floors have several layers, with a central core composed of a high-density wood fiberboard and an overlay that offers resistance to abrasion and wear.
In the case of SPC flooring, we have extra layers of material. This means that we have at least four layers: a wear layer with PU protection, a vinyl (decorative film), the reinforced rigid core and a foam layer.
After a brief understanding of SPC flooring, let’s take a look again. What is the difference between SPC flooring and wooden flooring?
First of all, it is the torture of beauty. In this era of justice, ugliness loses everything. After comparing the wooden floor and the wood-grained brick, the two are on the same level in terms of appearance. The imitation wood texture of the wood-grain brick is still good, so the face value comparison can be said to be flat.
The owners who know the wood floor know that the solid wood floor is relatively delicate, can not be soaked in water, will be scratched by solid objects, and needs careful maintenance in the later stage.
The SPC floor does not have these troubles. It is waterproof, moisture-proof, wear-resistant, flame-retardant, and has a long service life. In terms of durability and scratch resistance, SPC floor wins.
The so-called comfort is the foot feel. Compared with the SPC floor covering material, the wooden floor has greater elasticity and moderate friction coefficient, which can effectively alleviate the weight load of the feet and eliminate foot fatigue.
Moreover, the texture of the wooden floor is more warm, warm in winter and cool in summer, making it more comfortable to step on.
At the same time, the fragrant smell emitted by the base material of many wooden floors contains essential oils, fendol essence, aromatic tinctures and other ingredients, which can make the occupants' sense of smell become more agile.
The material of the SPC floor itself is unavoidable, and it is not suitable for bare feet to step on, so the wooden floor feels better in terms of foot feel.
Wood floors are inseparable from the presence of formaldehyde from production to installation, so wood floors are also an important source of indoor formaldehyde emissions. The formaldehyde in the board will slowly volatilize the formaldehyde in the material into the air. After the wood board is damp, it is easy to expand and deform and cause the board to crack. After the deformation and cracking, it will inevitably increase the release of formaldehyde.
However, Installing Spc Flooring is a new type of environmentally friendly floor developed based on high technology. It is cold pressed with original ecological stone powder and resin powder. It does not contain formaldehyde from raw materials to pressing, and its health is far superior to traditional wood flooring.
SPC is a great cost-effective choice for main floors of residential homes with normal wear in kitchens, living spaces or bathrooms. It is also excellent for basements where you’ll benefit from waterproofing, secondary vacation homes or rental homes as it is very low maintenance, can take a beating and is cost-effective to change out to maintain a modern look.
