Raw Materials

SPC flooring is mainly composed of polyvinyl chloride and calcium carbonate powder. The quality of calcium powder may vary from place to place, so the source of raw materials is crucial to the quality of the flooring.

Transparency

High-quality SPC flooring usually has higher transparency. High-quality flooring products of the same color have stronger light transmittance, while low-quality flooring has lower light transmittance.

Examine the edge quality of SPC flooring from the side.
Edge Quality

High-quality SPC flooring should have no defects on sides and a clean appearance. Although the splicing effect may be similar, a flawless edge is more attractive to consumers, especially for retailers.

Inspect the color on both sides of SPC flooring.
Back Color

SPC flooring made of 100% new materials generally has a pure white core layer. Floors with a white back usually represent a high-quality manufacturing process, while other colors may use mixed materials.
