What is SPC Flooring ?
SPC flooring, also known as stone plastic flooring, is a new type of composite flooring that is very popular in foreign countries. The main components of SPC flooring: PVC resin powder, natural stone powder, DOTP, stabilizer, carbon black, the main components are polyvinyl chloride and stone powder. SPC flooring is mainly made of calcium powder as raw material, after plasticizing and extruding sheet. SPC locking floor consists of UV layer, PVC wear-resistant layer, color film texture layer, SPC polymer substrate layer, soft and quiet resilience layer. Its substrate by the stone powder and thermoplastic polymer materials in the mixing and then high temperature extrusion made of composite panels, both wood and plastic properties and features, to ensure that the floor of the strength and toughness.

The Structure Of SPC Flooring
1.UV layer (UV coating): UV oil cured by the curing agent to form the coating, can prevent ultraviolet radiation on the volatilization of chemical substances within the plate.
2. Wear layer (Wear layer): PNC transparent wear layer, thickness of about 0.2-0.5mm, transparent texture, strong adhesion, wear and scratch resistance, wear resistance factor of up to 6000-8000 rpm.
3. Color film layer (Printing film): a variety of wood grain, stone grain, carpet grain decorative layer, can meet the different occasions, different tastes of different needs.
4. Polymer substrate layer (Polymer substrate layer): by the stone powder and thermoplastic polymer materials in the mixing of homogeneous and then extruded at high temperature made of composite panels, both wood and plastic properties and characteristics, so the floor has good strength and toughness.
5. Silent pad (IXPE/EVA silent cotton)) (can be added or not)
The Advantages Of SPC Flooring
Environmental protection: Ecofriendlymaterial, zero formaldehyde, no noxious or
checmical.
National Standards For SPC Flooring
At present, in China SPC flooring implementation of rigid PVC flooring national standards GBT 34440-2017, the standard specifies the terminology and definitions of rigid PVC flooring, classification, product identification, requirements, test methods and inspection rules, as well as marking, packaging, transportation and storage, this standard applies to the polyvinyl chloride resin sheet as the main raw material, by the surface of the laminated for indoor paving of the floor.

Physical Properties Of SPC Flooring
How To Install SPC Flooring
Unilin locking technology: Uipush is a new straight down laying technology developed by Unilin. It is the
most convenient and easy to install and produce overall straight down laying technology that flooring has
ever seen. By rotating the long side, the short side of the floor can be installed by simply pressing down.
SPC flooring is widely used in home decoration:
Living room: wear-resistant, scratch-resistant, can withstand the friction brought by daily
activities, such as furniture movement, children playing, etc.; has a good sound insulation
effect, which can reduce the outside noise interference; appearance of a variety of living
room decorating styles with a variety of matching, creating a comfortable and beautiful
space.

FAQ
What is SPC flooring?
The full name of SPC flooring is ‘Stone Plastic Composite’. Just as its name implies, it is primarily composed of PVC resin and
limestone powder. It serves as an upgraded version of LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tile) and WPC (Wood Plastic Composite), representing
the third generation of vinyl flooring.

How to repair SPC flooring ？
In case you intend to replace the entire SPC floor, the following steps can be followed:
Step 1
Use a pry bar to carefully remove the original old floor. Make sure to operate with caution to avoid causing unnecessary damage to the subfloor or
surrounding areas.
Step 2
Examine the flatness of the floor. If there are any uneven parts or depressions, carry out the necessary repairs to ensure a smooth surface for the new
flooring installation.
Step 3
Lay a floor mat or a moisture-proof membrane. This will not only provide additional cushioning but also offer effective protection against moisture, which is
beneficial for maintaining the quality and durability of the new SPC floor.
Step 4
Begin laying the new SPC flooring according to the proper installation instructions and make sure each piece is properly aligned and connected.
On the other hand, if you only need to replace a single SPC floor panel, here are the steps:
Step 1
Use a knife to cut off the locks of the floor panel that requires replacement. Ensure that the cutting is precise to facilitate the removal process.
Step 2
Gently remove the damaged panel from the ground. Take care not to damage the adjacent panels during this process.
Step 3
Take a new panel, cut off the locks around it, and then use glue to fix it directly in place. Make sure the glue is applied evenly and the panel is firmly
adhered.
Step 4
Finish the replacement by carefully adjusting the new panel to fit precisely into the original position so that it blends seamlessly with the surrounding panels.
How to verify the SPC floor is virgin material or recycled material ?
SPC locking flooring distinguishes between three types of material production: new material, mixed material, recycled material. Currently the highest quality is the
new material production, stable performance, production costs are also high. That how to distinguish, as follows:
1, Look at the color: spc bottom is generally spc substrate part, spc substrate is made of polyvinyl chloride resin
(1) high quality pure material color is beige;
(2) If the mixed material is used, the color is mostly gray, cyan, white;
(3) The color of recycled material is gray-black or black
(1) high-quality spc locking floor surface flat, no obvious color spots, clear pattern;
(2) and recycled materials and mixed materials spc locking floor appearance is not flat enough, after the flatness and fit is not good.
(1) spc substrate feel delicate, watery feeling.
(2) recycled materials and mixes feel dry, no moist feeling.
The floor is placed in a horizontal suspension, with a cell phone flashlight from the floor under the direction of upward irradiation, from the top of the floor can see the bright floor, is a good quality spc locking floor with good light transmission.
Find a sample, break the floor of the locking part, poor quality is very brittle, very easy to break, high quality spc locking floor locking has good flexibility, not easy to break.
As spc locking floor has substrate, color film layer, wear-resistant layer and UV layer, if the business labeling and actual measurement is 4.0mm, then you buy spc locking floor is probably only 3.7mm-3.8mm thickness. So the actual thickness is more than the labeled thickness of 0.2mm or so is sufficient spc locking floor.
After folding the floor, pull hard to see whether the surface color film layer, wear layer and UV layer and the substrate is not easy to separate between, not easy to separate is a high quality spc locking floor.
