What makes luxury vinyl tile and plank scratch-resistant?


Luxury vinyl tile and plank offer scratch resistance that is a pleasure to have in your home, especially if you are a parent or pet owner. But what is it that makes these floors scratch-resistant?

The top wear layer, usually made of pure vinyl, is primarily responsible for protecting the image layer beneath. Again, the layer can be personalized to a thickness that serves you best. These wear layers are available in various thicknesses, but be sure to ask for the thickest layered that will best suit your family’s needs.

Another way to create scratch resistance is by choosing materials with specific textures such as wire brushed, hand scraped, or distressed. These beautiful finishes help hide scratches and scuffs for an attractive appearance that lasts longer than the classic high gloss appearance.
