Why Choose Vinyl Flooring in South Africa

Vinyl floors look authentic while staying calm under spills. For example, click-lock SPC boards deliver rigid stability, and glue-down LVT gives a seamless, quiet feel. Therefore, families with kids and pets love the low maintenance and easy cleaning. Moreover, modern vinyl designs match oak, herringbone, marble, and concrete effects with impressive realism.

LVT vs SPC — Which Type Fits Your Room

Glue-down LVT creates a smooth, continuous surface that feels solid underfoot. As a result, it’s ideal for open-plan areas where you want quiet performance and long wear. On the other hand, SPC click-lock installs quickly over many subfloors and offers extra dent resistance thanks to its rigid core. Therefore, it’s a great choice for DIY or fast turnaround projects.
