Stone-effect vinyl flooring

Stone-effect vinyl settles an old dilemma: you want the look of concrete or stone without the cold, hard feel of ceramic tiles. A stone-look vinyl floor is warmer underfoot, quieter, and goes down without mortar or tile cutting — and it renders a matt concrete or honed-stone surface so faithfully you will only spot the difference up close. The catalogue currently holds 7 stone- and concrete-effect designs, with vinyl prices starting at 16,95 €/m², VAT included.

There are two constructions. Click SPC planks have a rigid mineral core, built-in underlay and a thickness of about 5–5,5 mm (wear layer around 0,5 mm); they lock together without adhesive. Glue-down LVT is 2–3 mm thick and bonded across its full area to a levelled subfloor — useful wherever floor height is at a premium. Both are 100 % waterproof, so they suit kitchens and bathrooms, and usage class 23/33 on some products clears them for commercial spaces too. The practical differences are laid out in our article SPC or LVT vinyl.
