China LVT Wood Plank Flooring Exporter

LVT wood plank flooring is a multilayer composite consisting of a PVC core, a printed photographic layer, and a transparent wear layer. It combines the visual appearance of natural wood with enhanced moisture resistance and dimensional stability.

Technical Specifications

Typical specifications vary according to project requirements, but common ranges are provided below to assist in initial evaluation.

Manufacturing Process

The manufacturing process begins with blending PVC resin, plasticizers, stabilizers, and fillers to form a homogeneous compound. This compound is calendared into sheets of the desired core thickness.

A high‑resolution photographic film is laminated onto the core, followed by embossing to replicate wood grain texture. A UV‑cured wear layer is then applied to provide surface protection. Finally, the continuous sheet is cut into planks, inspected, and prepared for packaging.

Primary Applications

In commercial interiors, the flooring is chosen because it resists moisture ingress, maintains dimensional stability under temperature fluctuations, and requires minimal maintenance compared to solid wood. These characteristics reduce lifecycle costs in high‑traffic environments.

• Retail stores and showrooms
• Hospitality lobbies and guest rooms
• Office spaces and conference areas
• Healthcare facilities and clinics
• Educational institutions

Quality Control Philosophy

Quality control focuses on verifying critical dimensions, wear‑layer adhesion, and color consistency throughout production batches. Each lot undergoes systematic sampling to ensure compliance with agreed tolerances.

• Thickness tolerance ±0.10 mm
• Wear‑layer peel strength ≥1.5 N/mm
• Color ΔE < 2.0 against approved sample
• Surface roughness Ra within specified range
• Absence of delamination after 500 cycles abrasion test

Customization Options

Customization options allow buyers to tailor the product to specific design and performance requirements. Adjustments can be made to geometric dimensions, surface aesthetics, and edge treatments without altering the core formulation.

• Plank width: 100 mm – 250 mm
• Plank length: 900 mm – 1800 mm
• Wear‑layer thickness: selectable within 0.20 mm–0.70 mm
• Surface texture: smooth, hand‑scraped, synchronized emboss
• Edge profile: square, beveled, micro‑bevel, painted edge
• Color and pattern: custom photographic prints available

Packaging and Export Logistics

Packaging for export typically involves stacking planks on wooden pallets, securing with stretch film, and adding corner protectors to prevent edge damage. A moisture‑barrier layer is included to guard against humidity during transit.

• Standard pallet size: 1.1 m × 1.1 m
• Maximum stack height: 1.2 m (≈ 240 kg per pallet)
• Container loading: 20‑ft or 40‑ft options
• Labeling: product code, batch number, destination markings
• Optional: palletized cardboard boxes for smaller orders

Frequently Asked Questions

Below are common inquiries from industrial buyers, with answers based on standard practice.

• Can dimensions be customized? Yes, plank width, length, and thickness can be adjusted per project specifications.
• What information is required before quotation? Required details include total area, desired thickness, wear‑layer preference, surface texture, edge profile, and delivery timeline.
• What materials are available? The core is PVC‑based; wear layer is UV‑cured polyurethane; photographic layer uses high‑resolution printing films.
• How is quality inspected? Inspection includes dimensional checks, wear‑layer adhesion testing, color measurement, and surface abrasion resistance per internal standards.
• What packaging methods are available? Standard pallet wrapping with stretch film, corner protection, and moisture barrier; custom boxing upon request.
• How are export shipments protected? Shipments are secured with straps, corner boards, and sealed containers; insurance can be arranged.
• What is the typical production lead time? Lead time ranges from 2‑4 weeks depending on order size and customization complexity, confirmed at quotation.
