SPC vs WPC – What are the differences?

Choosing the ideal flooring for your project is a crucial decision in creating comfortable, pleasant, and functional environments. Among the various options available on the market, SPC (Stone Plastic Composite) and WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) vinyl flooring stand out for their durability, water resistance, and ease of installation.

However, despite their similarities, each of these flooring types has specific characteristics and advantages that make them better suited to different needs and preferences. In this article, we’ll explore the differences between SPC and WPC in detail, so you can make an informed decision about which flooring best suits your space.

SPC
Rigid-core vinyl flooring, known as SPC, stands out as one of the most durable and versatile options on the market.

This flooring has an ultra-resistant and highly stable core:

Moisture Resistant: Due to its watertight fit, it is a top-quality moisture-resistant product and can be installed in kitchens and bathrooms.

Durability: The rigid core construction provides superior durability.

Realistic Appearance: Convincingly mimics the appearance of wood, with a variety of shades and patterns available.

Low Maintenance: Easy to maintain with vacuuming and occasional cleaning with a damp mop.

Easy Installation: The click system and its thinness make it easy to install.

Thermal and Acoustic Insulation: It offers good thermal insulation and comes with a built-in acoustic screen.

WPC
WPC vinyl flooring is also moisture resistant and has all the characteristics of SPC but features a more robust and complete construction. Suitable for any room in your project, WPC flooring features a multi-layer construction with a Core that combines PVC, calcium carbonate and wood particles and culminates with a top layer of LVT, providing greater comfort to the floor.

It’s the perfect choice for projects requiring a thicker flooring with superior comfort and acoustics. When deciding between SPC and WPC vinyl flooring, it’s essential to consider the specific characteristics of each type in relation to your particular needs. SPC stands out for its durability and strength, combined with its thin core and thinness, making it ideal for any project. On the other hand, WPC offers greater comfort, better acoustic insulation, and a realistic wood appearance, making it an excellent choice for residential spaces that value comfort and design.

Both flooring options are viable and modern, offering practical and appropriate solutions for each project. If you need help making a decision, our experts are always ready to guide you in the right direction and choose the perfect flooring for your project.
