Which is Better: SPC or LVT Flooring?

      As flooring specialists, we're often asked to compare spc flooring (Stone Plastic Composite) and LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tile). Both are popular waterproof solutions, but key differences exist. Let's explore which might be best for your project.

SPC Flooring: The Durable Contender

SPC flooring features a mineral-rich rigid core (limestone powder + stabilizers) topped with a vinyl decorative layer and wear layer. This structure gives it exceptional density.

LVT Flooring: Flexible and Adaptable

Traditional LVT uses a flexible PVC core. While versatile and comfortable underfoot, its softer composition makes it susceptible to dents under heavy furniture. Premium LVTs often add fibreglass layers for stability but can't match SPC's rigidity.

Head-to-Head Comparison

Where SPC Flooring Excels

1. Extreme Durability: Withstands heavy furniture and foot traffic without damage.
2. Climate Resilience: Performs flawlessly in temperature swings (-20°F to 150°F).
3. Low Maintenance: Resists stains and requires only routine sweeping.

The Verdict

While LVT offers comfort for residential spaces, SPC flooring delivers unbeatable durability and stability – especially in high-moisture or heavy-use environments. For kitchens, basements, offices, or sunrooms, SPC’s rigid core provides long-term reliability that flexible LVT can't match.
