Frequently Asked Questions
How does a 0.3mm wear layer compare to a 0.2mm wear layer?
A 0.3mm wear layer is significantly more durable and hard-wearing than a 0.2mm wear layer. While 0.2mm is suitable for light residential use in bedrooms and guest rooms, a 0.3mm wear layer is recommended for all areas of the home, including high-traffic spaces like living rooms and hallways, and even for light commercial use.
Is LVT with a 0.3mm wear layer a good choice for kitchens and bathrooms?
Yes, absolutely. The enhanced durability of a 0.3mm wear layer, combined with LVT's inherent water resistance, makes it a perfect choice for kitchens and bathrooms. It can withstand spills, splashes, and the daily foot traffic of these busy areas without a problem.
Will this LVT wear layer prevent scratches from pets?
The 0.3mm wear layer provides a high level of scratch resistance, making it an excellent choice for homes with pets. While no floor is completely scratch-proof, this wear layer is robust enough to handle the scuffs from pet claws and daily activity, keeping your floor looking great for years to come. Using protective mats and keeping pet claws trimmed will further extend the life of your floor.
