Super wear-resistance
There is a special high-tech processed transparent wear-resistant layer on the surface of PVC flooring, the wear-resistant layer ensures the excellent wear resistance. According to the different thickness of the wear-resistant layer, PVC flooring can be used 5~10 years under normal circumstances. The thickness and quality of wear-resistant layer directly determines the life time of PVC flooring. The standard test results show that 0.55mm thick wear-resistant layer flooring can be used for more than 5 years under normal circumstances, and 0.7mm thick wear-resistant layer flooring enough can be used for more than 10 years. Because of the super wear-resistance, PVC flooring is more and more popular in hospitals, schools, office buildings, shopping malls, supermarkets, transportation facilities and other places where people flow more.
High elasticity and superior impact resistance
PVC flooring is relatively soft and elastic. It’s with good elastic recovery under the impact of heavy objects. Meanwhile PVC flooring has a strong impact resistance for heavy impact damage.

Acid and alkali resistance
Tested by authority, PVC flooring with strong acid and alkali corrosion performance, can withstand harsh environment, is ideal for hospitals, laboratories, research institutes and other places.
Good thermal conductivity
PVC flooring with good thermal conductivity, uniform heat dissipation, small thermal expansion coefficient, and relatively stability, is the first choice of radiant heating floor in Europe, the United States and other countries and regions. It’s very suitable for family pavement.
Easy to Maintain
PVC floor maintenance is very convenient, the ground can be wiped with a mop. If you want to keep the effect of long-lasting light, just need regular waxing, the maintenance times are far lower than other floors.
