SPC Flooring Applications – Suitable for Any Home
Choosing new flooring can feel like a hard balance to strike, weighing up durability versus style and affordability to find a product that covers all your needs. Which is why SPC flooring is quickly becoming the go-to solution for homeowners looking to tick all the boxes without having to compromise on quality. SPC (Stone Polymer Composite) flooring is part of the next generation of flooring that has come to be known for its capacity to excel in terms of both practicality and beautiful styling. Whether you need to renovate a single room, or if you’re looking to re-floor an entire property, SPC will offer you a versatile and cost-effective alternative that will clearly demonstrate itself as the perfect solution.
So, what exactly is SPC flooring, and why has it become the first choice for so many homes? If you’re curious, we’re finding out today.
What Is SPC Flooring and Why Is It So Popular?
SPC flooring is very durable and waterproof due to its Stone Polymer composition, SPC flooring is a flexible type of flooring material that can easily withstands daily wear and tear. It has become particularly attractive to homeowners for offering the best of both worlds; the durability of stone, and the flexibility, and the design choices, offered by vinyl.
One of the greatest attractors to SPC’s rise in popularity is thanks to its affordability which outcompetes traditional hardwood floors by offering a similar look and feel, at a fraction of the cost. This means it is now possible to achieve the high-end aesthetic you’ve always dreamed about without having to break the bank, and the fact SPC flooring can provide a natural stone finish too, means you’ll never have to look elsewhere again. With a simple installation and removal process, no matter the changing trends, SPC will always have a style for you and ensure you never have to feel locked in to just one look ever again.
Its final key feature is its simple-to-use click-and-lock system which makes installation a breeze for professionals and means that it's not out of reach for DIYers to install either. It's a straightforward process that ensures you can refresh your space without the headache, or extra cost, of hiring a professional installer.
Benefits of SPC Flooring
SPC flooring has a broader appeal than just its affordability or easy installation however, its benefits are numerous and when looked at together make it a stand-out choice for modern homeowners looking for a flooring solution that can withstand the rigours of daily life.
One of the greatest benefits of SPC flooring is its waterproof nature, that’s right, waterproof, not just water resistant. This makes it the perfect choice for any room which is exposed to moisture, from the steaminess of a bathroom to the constant spills and splashes of a kitchen, SPC flooring will not warp or swell when in contact with moisture, instead remaining resilient and retaining its shape and structure, even in the wettest of conditions.
This ties into its next greatest benefit, durability. The composite of natural rigid stone, and flexible and malleable plastic (PVC), creates a solid and dense core which is practically impervious to impacts, scratches and the general wear and tear a floor will receive over its lifetime. So, whether you have kids, pets, or simply a busy household, SPC is built to last, handling high traffic without showing signs of damage.
In addition to its practical properties, SPC flooring also offers aesthetic benefits such as its softer feel underfoot, providing comfort with each step. SPC flooring comes with a built-in underlay that provides a cushioned, warm feel, so unlike traditional materials such as porcelain or ceramic tile, SPC flooring is also ideal for lounging areas like the living room and bedrooms.
And finally, when it comes to upkeep and maintenance, SPC flooring is as easy to clean as a material can be made to be. Care instructions come down to a simple list of sweeping or vacuuming once a day, and a quick mop with pH-neutral cleaner once a week to keep on top of the dirt and debris, and keep your home looking clean and pristine, making it a hassle-free solution for busy homeowners.
Applications of SPC Flooring
As we can see, SPC flooring has numerous benefits both in terms of practicality, and aesthetic considerations, and what these wonderful qualities amount to is a flooring that is capable of being applied all throughout the home. Whether you're looking to upgrade a high-traffic kitchen or create a cosy bedroom retreat, SPC flooring has you covered. So let’s take a look at how SPC flooring will fit and function throughout your home.
In the kitchen, where spillages, foot traffic and the occasional dropped utensil are part of everyday activities, SPC's waterproof properties and durable design will shine through, providing an easy-to-clean floor that resists damage like no other. Its textured design also creates an anti-slip surface which makes it much safer to use in rooms that are liable to get spillages, providing yet another benefit for you and your home.
In bathrooms, SPC flooring is uniquely placed to push out all the competition by providing immaculate waterproofing which won’t warp or swell the tiles over time or through prolonged exposure to moisture, maintaining the look and longevity from the first day of its life through to the end. Couple this with the anti-slip surface and SPC flooring is a no-brainer choice for bathrooms and shower rooms.
In bedrooms and living rooms, SPC adds an element of warmth and comfort thanks to its realistic and natural designs and texture, which can provide the look and feel of real wood and stone at a fraction of the cost, as well as its in-built underlay to ensure it's comfortable and cosy underfoot. The variety of finishes ensures it ties in with the rest of the décor effortlessly and its durable surface will stand up to the test of time and any daily wear and tear it may receive. And, because it doesn’t require adhesives, SPC flooring is a top choice for rental properties, where it can be laid and removed without having to damage the underlying floor.
