Q. What is the main advantage of the SPC core layer?
A: The SPC (Stone Plastic Composite) core, primarily made from limestone powder (60-75% Calcium Carbonate) and PVC resin, is extremely dense and rigid. Its main advantages are preventing expansion and contraction and its 100% waterproof nature. This superior stability allows it to cover minor subfloor imperfections and makes it ideal for moisture-prone areas like kitchens and basements, unlike many other flooring types.
Q. Is SPC flooring durable and scratch-resistant?
A: Yes, SPC flooring is highly durable. Its multi-layer structure includes a transparent wear layer with UV coating, which is specifically designed for scratch and abrasion resistance. Furthermore, the high-density mineral core provides exceptional impact resistance against dents, making it suitable for high-traffic areas and homes with pets.
Q. What are the benefits of the different bevel types?
A: The bevel type is primarily an aesthetic and practical choice for the installation’s final look:
No Bevel: Creates a smooth, seamless floor surface for a modern, uniform appearance.
Micro Bevel: Creates subtle V-grooves between planks, helping to mask minor subfloor unevenness and adding depth to the design.
Painted Bevel: Often features a darker painted edge to enhance the visual effect and realistically mimic the shadow lines found in real hardwood flooring.
