1.3mm PVC Vinyl Flooring

Product Description

1.3mm PVC vinyl flooring is a thin, flexible, and durable flooring solution made from high-quality polyvinyl chloride material, suitable for residential and light commercial use. It typically comes in roll form with a width of 1.5 to 2 meters and a length of 15 to 30 meters, depending on requirements. The flooring features a wear layer of 0.15 to 0.2 mm that provides basic scratch resistance and durability for low-traffic areas. Available in a wide range of printed designs such as wood, stone, marble, or abstract patterns, the surface can be finished with matte, glossy, or embossed textures for aesthetic appeal and slip resistance. It is 100% waterproof, easy to clean, and requires glue-down installation over a smooth and level surface. The backing may be plain or reinforced with mesh or foam for added strength and comfort. With fire-retardant and anti-slip properties (typically R9R10 rated), this flooring is an affordable and practical choice for bedrooms, offices, clinics, and retail spaces. Additionally, eco-friendly variants that are lead-free and phthalate-free are available, making it safe for indoor environments. The typical product warranty ranges from 3 to 7 years, depending on the manufacturer and usage conditions.
