Why LVT for Projects

LVT delivers premium wood/stone visuals, modular flexibility, and robust commercial wear layers. A top choice for office fit‑outs, retail boutiques, hospitality and multi‑family amenities — where fast renovation, easy repair and design consistency are key.

Design realism

Deep textures, bevels, emboss‑in‑register, wide planks/large tiles.

Easy replacement

Tile‑by‑tile swaps minimize downtime.

Performance

Wear layers typically 0.3–0.7 mm; commercial classes 33–34.

Acoustics & comfort

Underlays and acoustic builds for impact sound reduction and underfoot comfort.

Low VOC

Options with recognized indoor air labels (request certificates).

Installation choice

Glue‑down for high traffic/rolling loads; click for speed in refurbishments.

Technical & Compliance

  • Wear layers

    0.2 / 0.3 / 0.4 / 0.5 / 0.55 / 0.7 mm (collection‑dependent).

  • Overall thickness

    Typically 2.0–5.0 mm (click thicker).

  • Use classes

    33–34 commercial, selected lines 41–43.

  • Fire performance

    Often Bfl‑s1 (verify DoP).

  • Slip

    R9–R10; safety floors available as separate systems.

  • Indoor air

    Low VOC; certificates on request.

  • Acoustic

    Underlays and integrated solutions available.

LVT Formats & When to Use Them

Glue‑Down LVT (Dryback)

  • Best for: large open areas, rolling loads (chairs/trolleys), temperature variation within normal range.
  • Pros: strongest bond, excellent dimensional stability, well‑suited to commercial class 33–34.
  • Notes: requires subfloor preparation and correct adhesive selection per area and traffic.

Click LVT (Floating)

  • Best for: fast refurbishments, occupied spaces, raised/access floors.
  • Pros: quick install, easy plank replacement, reduced downtime.
  • Notes: use underlay appropriate to acoustics and substrate; confirm limits for heavy rolling loads.

LVT vs SPC vs Laminate vs Ceramic

Rule of thumb: choose glue‑down LVT for high traffic and rolling loads; choose click LVT for speed in occupied areas. For extreme temperature swings or demanding subfloors, consider SPC.

Design & Layout

  • Plank/Tile sizes

    Wide planks (e.g., 180–230 mm), large stone tiles (e.g., 600×600/900×600 mm).

  • Patterns

    Herringbone/chevron, mixed‑width planks, inset borders.

  • Zoning

    Vary wood/stone tones to guide flows; add transition‑free design where possible in open spaces.

  • Stairs

    Specify dedicated stair nosings/treads from Stairs solution.

  • Stairs & edges

    Pair with Stairs solution (nosings/treads) for compliant steps.

  • Wall coordination

    Wallcoverings to protect corridors and receptions.

Sector‑Specific Guidance

Different commercial environments put different demands on LVT. Here is how to specify the right build‑up, wear layer and installation method by sector — so your project lands on spec the first time.

01

Office & Corporate

Choose glue‑down for open‑plan areas with castor chairs; add an acoustic underlay in meeting rooms. Mix wood planks in work zones with stone tiles in reception for quiet zoning without dividers.

02

Retail

Specify wear layer ≥0.55 mm and use matting at entrances to trap grit. Consider SPC near shopfronts and large windows where thermal swings are high, and pair with durable skirting.

03

Hospitality & MFH

Click LVT accelerates room‑by‑room refurbishments in hotels and multi‑family amenities. Use water‑resistant builds in kitchenettes (not wetrooms) and ensure acoustic underlays meet impact‑sound targets.

Subfloor & Installation Notes

Correct substrate preparation is what separates a 15‑year LVT floor from a failure within the first year. Here are the specs your installer must control before any material is laid.

  • Moisture testing

    Test RH or CM% on every zone and keep records. Apply levelling compound to manufacturer spec before any adhesive is opened.

  • Adhesives

    Respect the datasheet: temperature, relative humidity and open time. Wrong tack window is the #1 cause of edge lift and ghosting on commercial LVT.

  • Click systems

    Confirm subfloor flatness within manufacturer limits and pair with an underlay matched to acoustics + substrate. Respect expansion joints at thresholds and columns.

  • Rolling loads

    For intensive trolley, castor‑chair or forklift traffic, specify glue‑down construction. Click systems are not designed for continuous rolling point loads.

FAQ

Here you’ll find answers to the most common questions our customers ask when choosing flooring. This section is designed to help you make confident and informed decisions. If you don’t see the information you’re looking for, feel free to contact our support team — we’re always here to help.

01

Glue‑down or click for offices with castor chairs?

+

Glue‑down offers the best stability for rolling loads; add a chair‑compatible backing and compliant underlay where used.

02

Is LVT suitable for kitchens and bathrooms?

+

For kitchens (non‑wetroom), yes. For showers/wetrooms, specify a wetroom vinyl sheet system with welded seams.

03

Can LVT be used over existing floors?

+

Yes, if the existing substrate meets flatness, adhesion and moisture requirements. Otherwise remove/prepare.

04

How to reduce sound transmission?

+

Use acoustic underlays or acoustic LVT lines; request dB ratings matching project targets.

05

What’s the typical service life?

+

With correct maintenance, 10–15+ years in commercial traffic (wear‑layer dependent).
