Project Floors Chevron LVT Flooring

The Project Floors Chevron LVT collection provides an excellent way to incorporate this classic, eye-catching pattern into modern interiors using high-performance luxury vinyl tile. The chevron pattern, characterised by its planks meeting point to point in a ‘V’ shape, creates a sense of dynamism and elegance that elevates spaces from hallways and living rooms to retail and hospitality settings. Project Floors offers dedicated Chevron planks, precision-cut to ensure a perfect fit and authentic appearance when installed in this distinctive layout.

Typically utilising realistic wood-effect designs, the Chevron LVT range benefits from the inherent advantages of Project Floors’ luxury vinyl. These floors are known for their durability, often featuring robust wear layers (potentially 0.55mm or higher, suitable for heavy domestic and commercial use – check specific product details) protected by a PU surface treatment. This construction provides excellent resistance to scratches, scuffs, stains, and general wear and tear. Being LVT, the planks are inherently water-resistant, making them a practical choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and entrance areas where moisture might be present.

Installation of Chevron LVT requires skill and precision to achieve the correct pattern alignment and is typically performed using the reliable glue-down method. This ensures maximum stability and longevity, especially in larger areas or commercial environments. Project Floors LVT is also compatible with underfloor heating systems (up to 29°C) and offers good slip resistance (typically R9 or R10). Furthermore, Project Floors emphasizes sustainability, often using phthalate-free plasticisers and achieving low VOC emissions certifications like “Indoor Air Comfort Gold” on many products. Warranties vary depending on the specific collection (e.g., floors@home or floors@work) but often range from 15 years upwards for residential use.
