Wear layer

Luxury vinyl flooring has four layers, and it's the surface layer that determines the longevity of your floor. This wear layer covers the wood, stone, or ceramic image layer and protects it from stains and abrasion. LVP brands that feature a 20-mil wear layer are ideal for all home areas, including high foot traffic.

Core layer

The core layer also has the potential to extend the life of your floor. Any LVT with a wood-plastic composite (WPC) or a stone plastic composite (SPC) core is waterproof and thus, can tolerate standing water. That means your floor is protected from spills, mishaps, and plumbing problems, so there's no damage to your floor when they occur.
