6mm SPC Flooring
Trendy products like spc flooring are seizing market share from competing hard surface categories. And laminate flooring is still consumers’ consideration in terms of durability and scratch resistance. Many people find it difficult to differentiate them, actually there are a lot of differences between these two types of flooring.
1. Structure
From a broader perspective, SPC flooring actually belongs to the vinyl flooring family, whereas the laminate flooring is a kind of hybrid wood flooring, which results in the fundamental difference in their structure and in its performance.
SPC flooring consists of UV coating + wear layer+HD decor film + rigid core+ underlay:
The core material used for SPC flooring is 100% virgin material. It is made from polyvinyl chloride and calcium powder which is an environment-friendly and non-toxic renewable material. No heave metal contained such as benzene, lead or cadmium, etc, and no toxic substances during the entire manufacturing process.

SPC flooring is made of 100% virgin material which also guarantees it is formaldehyde-free certified by SGS and FloorScore. You can install it in your home,or commercial facilities that are especially concerned about health such as the hospital, home ,schools, hotel, supermarket.
But for laminate flooring, which is made of the fiberboard, it may have slight formaldehyde-releasing issue(E0≤0.5mg/L, E1≤1.5mg/L). With more and more concerns about well-being, this may be a big drawback for laminate flooring.
4. Dimensional Stability
Because of the material and production, SPC flooring is much more dimensionally stable than laminate flooring. After several-time acclimation which will cool down the extruded SPC rigid core to normal temperature, SPC flooring has better dimensional stability and longer lifespan than any other flooring. No afraid of severe temperature or humidity changes.
5. Stain-resistance & Maintenance
