Invictus Primus Flooring
Invictus Primus is the value entry point into the Invictus glue-down line-up – a Belgian-engineered LVT range that delivers fully waterproof construction, realistic wood-effect designs and the flat, stable finish that only a properly bonded glue-down floor can achieve, at a sharper price than the flagship Maximus and premium Ultimus ranges. With a 0.3mm wear layer, Primus is the right choice for busy family homes, bedrooms and secondary living spaces where you want Invictus quality without paying for the top-tier specification.
At Grosvenor Flooring we stock the full Primus range. It is sold on a Request a Price basis – send us your measurements and any competitor quotes you already have and we will come back the same working day with a tailored price via our enquiry form, WhatsApp or phone.

About Invictus Primus
Primus uses the same core Belgian engineering principles as the rest of the Invictus catalogue – precision manufacturing, waterproof construction and a hardwearing surface – but with a more focused design library and a sharper price point. As a traditional glue-down LVT, each plank is bonded directly to a properly prepared subfloor, delivering the flatness, quietness and long-term stability that glue-down installation is known for. The 2.0mm construction and 0.3mm wear layer keep Primus at an accessible price while still providing reliable performance for everyday residential use.
Like the rest of the Invictus range, Primus is fully waterproof once installed and suitable for use over most underfloor heating systems.

Where Primus Fits in the Invictus Range
Primus is the value glue-down option in the Invictus range. Maximus (0.55mm wear layer) sits above as the flagship glue-down collection with the widest design library and Ultimus (0.7mm wear layer) is the premium glue-down tier. If you need a click format rather than glue-down, Maximus Click is the only rigid-core click product in the Invictus range. Primus is the right choice when you want Invictus engineering and waterproof performance at the keenest price the brand offers in a glue-down format.
Where Can Invictus Primus Be Used?
Primus is suitable for any room in the home. Its fully waterproof glue-down construction makes it especially well-suited to kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms and hallways. It is equally well-suited to lounges, dining rooms and bedrooms, where the glue-down finish delivers a quiet, solid feel underfoot.
