Composition & Production Made from finely ground mineral rock and nano-polymer resin. Hot-melt and hot-pressing process ensures zero formaldehyde. Made from polymer materials such as natural or synthetic rubber.
Design & Color Rich variety of colors, including natural wood tones and various wood grains. Customizable to individual needs. Usually single color due to strong color absorption, difficult to customize.
Eco-friendliness Environmentally friendly; produced with nano-polymers, no glue, fundamentally eliminates formaldehyde problem Depends on type; may emit VOCs.
Wear Resistance Resists rotting, swelling, and deformation in humid environments. Maintains elasticity after repeated bending. Excellent elasticity but less wear-resistant in some cases.
Installation Lightweight, easy to install, requires no special care, easy to clean, reduces maintenance costs. Heavier, complex installation. Improper installation can cause air bubbles and requires a more rigid, self-leveling subfloor, which may exacerbate base defects.
Overall Advantages Environmentally friendly, lightweight, easy to install, wide color options, high cost-effectiveness. Gradually becoming consumers' preferred choice. Offers excellent elasticity, but more expensive, single color, complex to install, limiting its application.
Applications Suitable for bathrooms, balconies, kitchens, sports venues, and other humid environments. Limited to specific locations due to cost and installation complexity.
Market Demand High demand; suitable for humid environments. Waterproof, wear-resistant, high cost-effectiveness. More expensive, limited applicability; mainly for specific locations.
