Safety and toughness take precedence when choosing the best flooring for your house, especially where kids and pets live. SPC flooring has been on the market and in vogue because it’s tough, easy to maintain, and safe.
Why SPC Flooring is a Safe Choice？
SPC flooring is easy and safe with family usage and best suited for families with kids and pets.
What is SPC Flooring?
SPC flooring or engineered vinyl flooring or rigid core flooring is a premium vinyl floor with a stone-plastic composite core. It will be four or five layers thick:
Top surface layer constructed to be damage-resistant.
Aesthetic surface layer giving the floor a stone or wood appearance.
Core layer of an aggregation of limestone powder, polyvinyl chloride, and stabilizers for stiffness.
Bottom layer for sound insulation and cushioning. There is another layer of EVA or IXPE material in certain types of SPC for further comfort.
Material Composition and Manufacturing Processes
The material is then mixed with high-speed mixtures and then rolled or molded by extrusion machines to form a hard core board. Core is then laminated with the application of various layers like fashion film and abrasion layer. It is also UV-coated so that it is scratch-, stain-, and sun-resistant. The panels are also trimmed to sizes to be utilizable later and edged-notched with the fitting of a lock system so that it can be easily installed.
Why SPC Flooring is So Comfortable and Durable
SPC flooring employs the best of standard SPC but adds a little something extra to be more comfortable and resilient. It has a thicker and stronger wear layer and a higher-quality acoustic underlayer to absorb the floor sound. The result is a floor that didn’t just survive the test of time but also feels wonderful on the feet.
Formaldehyde Content and Safety

Is SPC Flooring Safe for Indoor Air Quality
