What is vinyl flooring and how is it made?
Vinyl flooring offers a great variety of choices. You can replicate the look of tile, stone and hardwood floors. Also known as resilient flooring, vinyl floors are made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). They are generally composed of four layers. The bottom layer adds structural strength and durability. The thicker the backing, the more durable the product is. On top of that is the printed design, which is covered by a protective wear layer.
