Factory Direct Mannington Luxury Vinyl Plank

This product is a rigid core luxury vinyl plank designed for high‑traffic commercial environments. It combines a PVC‑based wear layer with a stabilized core to resist indentation, moisture, and temperature fluctuations.

Manufactured to tight tolerances, the planks feature a click‑lock system that allows floating installation without adhesives, reducing labor time and subfloor preparation.

Technical Specifications

Overall thickness typically ranges from 4.5 mm to 6.0 mm, with a wear layer thickness of 0.3 mm to 0.7 mm depending on the selected grade.

Plank dimensions are available in widths of 125 mm, 180 mm, and 225 mm, with lengths ranging from 900 mm to 1500 mm, all cut to ±0.1 mm tolerance.

The locking mechanism employs a milled‑edge profile that achieves a shear strength of at least 1.2 kN per joint under standard test conditions (ASTM F3261).

Thermal expansion coefficient is approximately 5×10⁻⁵ mm/mm·°C, allowing installation over subfloors with temperature variations up to 30 °C without gapping.

Material Composition

The wear layer consists of a clear polyurethane coating over a printed décor film, providing abrasion resistance and UV stability.

The core is a rigid PVC composite fortified with calcium carbonate and impact modifiers, delivering a flexural modulus of approximately 2.5 GPa.

A backing layer of recycled PVC adds dimensional stability and reduces acoustic transmission, measured at ΔL ≤ 4 dB in ISO 10140‑3.

All components are phthalate‑free and comply with REACH and FloorScore standards for indoor air quality.

Performance Characteristics

Abrasion resistance meets EN 660‑2 Class 33, suitable for heavy commercial use such as retail corridors and hospital wards.

Slip resistance, tested per ASTM E303, yields a dynamic coefficient of friction ≥0.6 when wet, meeting ADA requirements for accessible routes.

Dimensional stability after 24 h immersion in water at 20 °C shows less than 0.15 % linear change, indicating minimal swelling.

Impact resistance, evaluated via the large‑diameter ball drop test (ASTM D5420), shows no cracking at impact energies up to 2 J.

Applications

In healthcare facilities, the product’s seamless surface reduces bacterial harborage and allows easy cleaning with neutral pH solutions, supporting infection control protocols.

Retail environments benefit from the high wear layer thickness, which maintains appearance under constant cart traffic and frequent floor‑standing displays.

Educational institutions value the acoustic backing, which lowers impact noise in multi‑story buildings, improving learning environments.

Industrial settings such as warehouses with light forklift traffic select the rigid core for its resistance to point loads and moisture ingress from occasional spills.

Installation Guidelines

Acclimate the planks at 18 °C–22 °C and 45 %–55 % relative humidity for a minimum of 48 hours before installation to stabilize dimensions.

Ensure the subfloor is flat within 3 mm over a 2 m radius, clean, dry, and free of contaminants; a moisture barrier is recommended when relative humidity exceeds 75 %.

Begin installation along the longest wall, maintaining a 10 mm expansion gap at perimeter walls and fixed objects; use spacers to guarantee consistent spacing.

The click‑lock system allows hand‑tight engagement; a tapping block and pull bar are used for the final row to avoid damaging the locking edges.

Post‑installation, roll the floor with a 45 kg roller to ensure full contact and eliminate air pockets.

Quality Assurance

Each production lot undergoes inline thickness monitoring using laser gauges, with acceptable deviation limited to ±0.05 mm.

Wear layer adhesion is tested per ASTM D4541, requiring a minimum bond strength of 1.5 MPa before product release.

Color consistency is verified via spectrophotometric analysis, maintaining ΔE ≤ 2.0 across batches.

Final inspection includes a visual check for surface defects, edge chipping, and locking integrity on a sampling basis of 1 % of total output.

All test results are documented and available upon request for customer audits.

Customization Options

Clients may select from a standard palette of 30 colors or request custom digital prints aligned with corporate branding.

Embossing patterns range from smooth, hand‑scraped, to deep‑grain textures, each affecting slip rating and aesthetic depth.

Plank width and length can be adjusted in 5 mm increments to match modular layouts or reduce waste in large‑scale projects.

Edge treatments include beveled, square, or micro‑bevel profiles, influencing joint visibility and cleaning ease.

Custom orders require a minimum quantity of 500 m² and a lead time of 4–6 weeks, subject to tooling availability.
