Product Introduction
PVC vinyl flooring has become the go-to surface for building owners who demand durability, water resistance, and design flexibility. At 3c-floor we manufacture multiple PVC product families — including rigid SPC options, luxury vinyl tile (LVT), glued sheet vinyl and loose-lay vinyl planks — each engineered for different project needs.
Our manufacturing systems combine high-quality PVC compounds with advanced surface treatments to create floors that resist scratches, stains, and heavy rolling loads while providing authentic wood and stone visuals. For architects specifying resilient surfaces, our catalog provides technical sheets, sample kits and project references to simplify selection.

Product Features — What Makes Our PVC Vinyl Special
Performance & Durability
- Waterproof construction: PVC products resist moisture and are dimensionally stable in wet environments.
- High wear layers: Commercial-grade wear films (0.3–0.7 mm) protect against abrasion and retain appearance.
- Scratch & stain resistance: Superior surface treatments prevent marking and simplify maintenance.
- Impact resistance: Formulations optimized to withstand rolling loads and heavy furniture in retail or hospitality settings.
Design & Environment
- Authentic visuals: High-resolution printing and synchronized embossing replicate hardwood, stone and concrete looks.
- Acoustic options: Integrated or optional underlays reduce sound transmission — ideal for multi-level buildings.
- Low VOC: Formulated to meet stringent indoor air quality standards for commercial interiors.
- Recyclable components: Manufacturing processes minimize waste and include recycling programs for production offcuts.

Installation Precautions & Best Practices
- Acclimation: Store panels on site for at least 48 hours in the conditioned space to minimize expansion/shrinkage after installation.
- Subfloor preparation: Ensure subfloor is flat, clean, dry and structurally sound. Concrete slabs should meet moisture vapor emission limits; use primers or barriers if necessary.
- Level tolerance: Maximum deviation typically 3 mm per 2 m — check product datasheet for exact requirements.
- Installation method: Choose between click-lock, glue-down or loose-lay based on area use, rolling loads, and acoustic requirements.
- Movement joints: Provide expansion gaps at perimeter and fixed points; follow our installation guide for recommended gap sizes.
- Underfloor heating: Many PVC vinyl products are compatible with radiant systems if maximum surface temperatures are observed (usually ≤27–29°C). Request technical confirmation per SKU.
- Cleaning after install: Remove adhesives, residue and construction dust with manufacturer-recommended cleaners before opening the space to occupants.
For commercial projects we recommend using installers with proven experience in resilient floor systems. 3c-floor can make installer recommendations and provide on-site technical support where required.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between PVC vinyl and SPC?
PVC vinyl refers to a family of resilient flooring made from polyvinyl chloride; these include flexible sheet vinyl, LVT and some plank systems. SPC (stone-plastic composite) is a rigid core variant where a mineral-filled core provides extra dimensional stability and impact resistance. Choose PVC vinyl for comfort and design variety; choose SPC for maximum rigidity and heavy-load performance.
Are PVC vinyl floors waterproof?
Many PVC vinyl products are waterproof at the plank or tile level. However, overall waterproof performance depends on installation details: seam treatment, transitions, and subfloor moisture management. For wet-area installations, specify fully waterproof products and follow installation guidance.
How do I maintain and clean PVC vinyl floors?
Routine maintenance includes sweeping or vacuuming, and damp-mopping with a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive pads. For commercial sites, implement a maintenance schedule including protective mats at entries to reduce grit and wear.
Do you offer samples and color matching?
Yes. 3c-floor provides physical sample swatches, digital color boards and printed mock-ups for project approval. For large projects we can provide pre-production samples and color proofs to ensure consistency across batches.
