The top layer is usually a PVC wear-resistant layer, which helps prevent surface damage. The wear resistance rating varies by brand and specification.\nSPC flooring typically consists of four main layers:\n- Wear Layer \u2013 A transparent textured plastic layer that provides surface protection and tactile feel.\n- Decor Film Layer \u2013 A printed layer with wood grain patterns; this is what gives the flooring its visual design.\n- Core SPC Layer \u2013 Made from a mix of stone powder, PVC, and stabilizers, this layer ensures structural stability and excellent waterproofing.\n- Back Padding (Underlayment) \u2013 Adds softness and sound insulation to the flooring.\nSome brands also include an anti-UV coating, which helps protect the surface from ultraviolet rays and stains, preserving the color and appearance of the SPC flooring.\n\nWould you like this adapted for marketing, product packaging, or a website?

Instead, it uses heat-pressing technology to bond all structural layers directly. Most of the PVC used is certified by FloorScore or GreenGuard, ensuring zero or low VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) for better indoor air quality.<\/p>\n<p>Cost-Effective &amp; Easy to Install - \nSPC flooring can be laid directly over any flat surface. Its slim profile means it won\u2019t affect ceiling height\u2014even when installed over existing tiles or wood flooring. No need to spend extra on removing old flooring\u2014saving you time and money.<\/p>\n<p>Easy to Clean &amp; Stain-Resistant - \nSPC flooring is tough and resistant to discoloration. It stands up well to spills like juice, red wine, cola, or vinegar. Most common household cleaners are safe to use on SPC surfaces.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nothing is perfect\u2014SPC flooring has its drawbacks:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWear-resistant\u201d doesn\u2019t mean \u201csuper wear-resistant.\u201d The wear layer of SPC flooring is made of PVC, which isn\u2019t as hard as the aluminum oxide wear layer used in laminate flooring. Sharp metal objects can still scratch the surface of SPC flooring.<\/p>\n<p>Not suitable for outdoor use: Since PVC is sensitive to high temperatures, SPC flooring is also vulnerable to heat. If installed outdoors and exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, the decorative layer may fade, and the flooring may warp. Therefore, steam mops should never be used to clean SPC flooring.<\/p>\n<p>Not recommended for bathrooms: Although SPC flooring is waterproof, if water seeps underneath from the wall edges over time, it can cause unpleasant odors.<\/p>\n<p>Requires a flat subfloor: SPC flooring demands a relatively even base. If the subfloor has significant height differences, long-term use may lead to damage or broken locking mechanisms.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u8fd1\u5e74\u9999\u6e2f\u8d8a\u4f86\u8d8a\u591a\u4eba\u937e\u610f\u7528\u77f3\u5851\u5730\u677f\uff0c\u5b83\u52dd\u5728\u5b89\u88dd\u7c21\u55ae\u3001\u9632\u6f6e\u9632\u6c34\u3001\u4f4e\u51b7\u7e2e\u71b1\u8139\uff0c\u597d\u9069\u5408\u9999\u6e2f\u9019\u7a2e\u6c23\u5019\u6f6e\u6fd5\u5730\u5340\u7528\u3002 \u77f3\u5851\u5730 [&#8230;]","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":27,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[108,119,109,120,118],"class_list":["post-126","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-29","tag-spc","tag-119","tag-109","tag-120","tag-118"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/126","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=126"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/126\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1518,"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/126\/revisions\/1518"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=126"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=126"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lookflooring.com.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=126"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
