Luxury Vinyl Tile

Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) is the fastest growing segment in the flooring industry. This is the designer’s choice for many commercial and residential applications. This unique product is the perfect combination of beauty, maintenance and durability.

You can now  have the look, graining, and character of real hardwood in LVT.  Today’s manufacturing processes create amazing vinyl “wood” planks and textured “stone” tiles that rival the real thing.

 Luxury Vinyl Tile Flooring Construction

Luxury vinyl flooring systems use advanced realistic photographic technologies  to replicate real hardwoods and stones. There are four  layers fused together to produce the final product: a resilient vinyl backing, a vinyl color layer, a photographic film layer, and a urethane or aluminum oxide top layer. The protective top layer  is very important to the durability of the product.
