Advantages of Rigid core Vinyl plank Flooring

• Realistic wood and stone looks. Seriously, vinyl is changing. Rapidly. The top-end vinyl floors mimic natural materials better than ever before. SPC vinyl is the best of the best, which means the looks are usually incredibly convincing and beautiful.
• Zero maintenance. All you need is the occasional vacuum and damp mop to keep your floor looking fabulous.
• Kiss the phthalates goodbye. Many of our SPC flooring options are phthalate-free. Just check the product highlights to be sure.
• No expansion/contraction. One big worry for traditional wood flooring is expansion and contraction causing shifting or buckling in the floor. Rigid core does not expand or contract, even when moisture is present.
• Sound absorbent. The SPC core of rigid core luxury vinyl flooring helps absorb sound, making it great for second story businesses.
• Extra warmth. Rigid core is known for providing extra warmth, especially compared to cold ceramic tile.
• Less comfortable underfoot than WPC. Manufacturers designed rigid core to be sturdy, not comfortable. That’s why it’s so popular in commercial environments.
• Price. SPC flooring comes with a lot of bells and whistles and the price can reflect that. Although, as more and more companies develop their own rigid core lines, we are starting to see prices drop and become more affordable. Also, it’s still less expensive than solid hardwood with way less maintenance.

SPC Rigid Core VS WPC

The meat of both WPC flooring and rigid core flooring is the waterproof core. In WPC flooring, this is made from wood plastic composite, while with SPC, it is made from stone plastic composite. The stone is stiffer, sturdier and less resilient.

Structurally, the WPC core contains added foaming agent to increase resilience and comfort. The SPC has no foam added, giving it a stronger, more robust core.

It’s no surprise then that SPC rigid core luxury vinyl flooring is traditionally used for high-traffic commercial spaces. It is unbending unlike traditional vinyl and virtually indestructible.

When it comes to scratches, both SPC and WPC are dependent on the wear layer. The thicker the wear layer. the better your floor will hold up.

As far as dents from heavy furniture, SPC rigid core is less susceptible to this than WPC flooring due to its, well, rigid core. That’s what makes it great for commercial environments. No matter how much traffic you see, SPC rigid core can take it.
