The structure of SPC and WPC vinyl flooring is similar, and both types of vinyl flooring are completely waterproof. The biggest difference is that the core composite materials of SPC and WPC are different. SPC stands for stone-plastic composite, while WPC stands for wood-plastic composite. The SPC floor core consists of limestone, polyvinyl chloride and stabilizers. The WPC floor core is composed of recycled wood pulp and plastic composites.
In terms of price, SPC is the more affordable of the two. If price is an important factor for you, then SPC is the way to go.
Although WPC floors are thicker than SPC floors, SPC is actually more durable. SPC is denser, which means it is more resistant to damage from heavy objects.
WPC flooring has a formaldehyde problem. In fact, most wood floors contain some level of formaldehyde. This is due to the presence of the resin used to press the wood fibers together. Certain types of wood laminate flooring contain dangerous levels of formaldehyde.
The above is the difference between SPC and WPC plastic flooring, and you can clearly see why we think SPC flooring is better than WPC flooring.
