PVC flooring and linen flooring are flexible flooring, but differentiated.

Want to know the difference between them? We compare the advantages and disadvantages of the two from four aspects：

1.Ingredients and production process is different: linen flooring by the oxidation of linseed oil, softwood and wood flour mixture, laminated to the jute on the back of processing. The PVC flooring is based on polyvinyl chloride and its copolymer resin as the main raw material, adding filler, plasticizer, stabilizer, coloring agent and other accessories, in the continuous sheet on the substrate, the coating process or by rolling, extrusion Or extrusion process produced. From this point on the use of linen is pure natural linen raw materials, and PVC flooring is used in PVC material, but also green materials.

2.Wear resistance and stability are different: linen floor resistance to the general resistance, linen floor hard under the soft, which is why the thick linen floor resistance is not a good reason for the performance of the track, compared to the PVC floor of the resistance Grinding better. In addition, the dimensional stability of flax flooring in general, therefore, must use a strong glue, on the whole, flax flooring stability is less than PVC flooring.

3.Easy to maintain the degree of difficulty: linen flooring need to be maintained under natural light, the sample and the material will be different, yellow, linen flooring for the maintenance of products (PH> 7) resistance is poor, linen floor in the need to re-polish Wax must use special care products. Flax flooring is much harder than PVC flooring, but because the surface is porous, so all the stains must be quickly cleaned up, otherwise the surface will be difficult to remove the imprint and had to re-polish and wax. Because it is not a thermoplastic material, it can not be recycled, the traces of hot can be easily worn away, but for more in-depth hot marks, through the heart of PVC flooring than linen floor grinding much easier.

4.Difficult to install the difference: the installation of linen flooring more difficult, if the indoor temperature is too low, linen flooring will break. Due to its absorptive nature and dimensional instability, the product must be quickly installed with strong glue. For example, one day, an installation team can lay 80 to 100 square meters of PVC flooring, or may only be able to lay 60 square meters of linen flooring. Linseed oil is not sensitive to temperature, can not use the same material to welding welding, it is not welding but “seam”, so linen floor can not be divided into E3 waterproof, linen floor is not suitable for wet room or clean Required area. The linen flooring will emit a strong smell and stay in the installed room.
