Three Kinds Of The Latest Floor, Lvt, Spc, Wpc, Who Will Be The Most Popular

What floor is used in the kitchen? Are you afraid of being greasy? Laying floors in the kitchen is actually quite common in European and American families. They use a new type of PVC floor.

What is LVT, SPC, WPC floor？

If you want to clarify what LVT, SPC and WPC flooring are, you have to start with PVC flooring. This is how Baidu Encyclopedia introduced PVC flooring: a new type of lightweight floor decoration material that is very popular in the world today, also known as "lightweight floor material". It is a popular product in Japan, South Korea, Europe, America, and Asia. It has been popular abroad. It entered the Chinese market in the early 1980s. It has been widely recognized in large and medium cities in China and is widely used, such as homes, hospitals, Schools, office buildings, factories, public places, supermarkets, commerce and other places. "PVC floor" refers to the floor made of polyvinyl chloride materials. 

Specifically, polyvinyl chloride and its copolymer resin are used as the main raw materials, and fillers, plasticizers, stabilizers, colorants and other auxiliary materials are added. On a continuous sheet-like substrate, it is coated or calendered, extruded or extruded. It is produced by technology, and the relevant national standard is GB/T11982-2015.

The so-called PVC floor, commonly known as plastic floor, is a general term. Any floor made of polyvinyl chloride as raw material can roughly be called PVC floor. New types of floors such as LVT, SPC, and WPC actually belong to PVC. For the floor category, they just add different other materials, so they form independent subcategories. Polyvinyl chloride is a kind of white powder. This thing is in the manufacturing industry, just like the freshly marketed spring bamboo shoots in the kitchen. You can use it to make many delicacies such as braised spring bamboo shoots with oil, roasted spring bamboo shoots with pork, pickled fresh fish and so on.

The main components of PVC flooring include polyvinyl chloride powder, stone powder, plasticizers, stabilizers, and carbon black. These raw materials are widely used industrial raw materials, and their environmental safety has been verified for many years.

LVT floor, soft and flexible flexible floor, professionally expressed as "semi-rigid sheet plastic floor", they can even be bent into rolls, and they were mainly used for tooling projects in the past because they have higher requirements on the floor. Professionals are required to lay, so considering the cost, it is usually only suitable for large-area laying. Of course, for rental houses or offices with low flatness requirements, this kind of floor is both good-looking and affordable. The recognized advantages of LVT flooring are: low price, environmental protection, wear resistance, good elasticity, impact resistance, waterproof and flame retardant, waterproof and moisture-proof, and convenient maintenance. This kind of floor is often laid in schools, kindergartens, playrooms, and is also used in family children's rooms.

SPC floor, a rigid plastic floor, can also be bent, but compared with LVT floor, the degree of curvature is much less. Its common name is Shijing Floor, and Hong Kong and Taiwan are called stone plastic floor or plastic stone floor. In addition to Europe and the United States, Southeast Asia is one of the regions that use SPC flooring the most, because it not only has high appearance, but also has excellent waterproof and moisture-proof performance. 

The cost is lower than laying floor tiles, and it saves laying time. A group of readers once said that there are many types of flooring on the website of JOKA, a flooring factory in Europe, but no such SPC flooring can be found. This is definitely not found, because Europe refers to SPC flooring as RVP flooring. 

Uncle Gun visited the production process of SPC floor, it is made by heating and bonding at one time, no glue is needed at all. It has many advantages, such as high environmental protection; waterproof and moisture-proof; insect and mothproof; high fire resistance; good sound absorption effect; no cracking, no deformation, no thermal expansion and contraction; low price; easy installation; no formaldehyde , Heavy metals, phthalates, methanol and other harmful substances. 

The disadvantage of SPC is that the density is relatively heavy and the transportation cost is relatively high; the thickness is relatively thin, so there are certain requirements for the flatness of the ground.

WPC floor is a semi-rigid sheet plastic floor, commonly known as wood plastic floor. Because the early WPC floor added wood powder, it is called wood plastic floor. Simply put, it is composed of LVT layer and WPC layer. 

The foot comfort and sound absorption effect are very outstanding. If the cork layer or EVA layer is added, some people say that the foot feel is almost the same as the solid wood floor. From the perspective of comfort, WPC is the kind of PVC floor closest to traditional solid wood flooring. Some people in the industry call it "golden floor". Its environmental performance is also outstanding. LVT floor and SPC floor have the characteristics It has all the 144 test indicators passed, and its installation requirements are similar to that of laminate flooring, which is very convenient and suitable for DIY. The disadvantage of WPC is that it cannot be recycled and reused, and the price is higher than that of LVT flooring, which is similar to SPC flooring. The WPC floor is made into wall panels, and there are many outdoor floors.

New types of floors such as LVT, SPC and WPC have already existed in many of our work and lives. We may often step on them without knowing it. Uncle Gun did a simple survey of readers who are about to be renovated and said that he had never heard of any of the three new types of flooring, accounting for 80%.
