Introduction of WPC floor
Introduction of WPC floor
WPC is a kind of environmentally friendly and healthy material, and it has made great development and achievements in various fields. Below we will introduce to you the floor developed by the new environmentally friendly material WPC - WPC floor.
After a series of research and development, WPC flooring has broken the traditional concept in the flooring industry and has become a fashionable, noble, environmentally friendly and durable new type of flooring.
1. Product structure:
The role of each layer:
UV layer: Enhance the wear resistance and scratch resistance of the floor surface, unify the surface gloss and enhance the waterproof function and stain resistance function.
Transparent wear-resistant layer : to ensure abrasion resistance and increase the service life.
Printed fabric layer: provide a variety of pattern styles to choose from.
Bottom material layer: balance function to ensure that the floor is not warped or arched.
PUR glue: used for bonding the LVT layer and the WPC layer.
WPC layer: It is the base material layer, which controls the thickness of the product and increases the strength of the product.
PUR glue: used for bonding the WPC layer and the IXPE layer.
IXPE layer: plays the role of buffer and sound absorption.

3. Product advantages:
1 . High strength: The strength of the base material is higher than that of ordinary PVC flooring, which can be adapted to large-area paving in a large temperature difference environment, and it is not prone to warping and arching.
2 . Light weight: The weight of products with the same specifications and thickness is about 20% lighter than ordinary PVC flooring , and is more suitable for high-rise buildings or old building renovations than ceramic tiles and marble.
3 . Convenient paving: no need for professional construction tools, no need to hit the keel, can realize convenient paving, paving at any time and move in at any time.
4 . Good sound-absorbing performance: The bottom of the product can be optionally added with a sound-absorbing layer, which has good sound-absorbing effect and is more suitable for hotels, schools, apartments for the elderly and other places.
