What is Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT) Flooring?

Unlike vinyl flooring of the past (which came as a roll and resembled linoleum), LVT today comes as a plank or tile.

The technology behind LVT reflects advances in vinyl composite materials combined with the ease of laying tiles and planks rather than a roll.

Like vinyl rolls, vinyl tiles are made from a sandwich of layers, each layer performing a separate function.

The embellishment layer is either a textile fabric or an image printed on paper.

The HD photographic layer is where most progress has been made, resembling natural wood, stone and fabric texture.

The finishes are almost indistinguishable from the genuine article.

The stability layer provides the weight and sturdiness for the planks/tiles to lay flat.

The overall thickness can be anything between 2 and 8mm (including underlay).
