The new 2018 flap floor trend continues to be the popular material WPC, a luxury vinyl and laminate alternative that offers a wood and ceramic look with additional features that appeal to homeowners.

What is WPC Flooring?
WPC floors and WPC vinyl floors are known to be 100% waterproof. This is an extended luxury vinyl floor with a special waterproof core that makes it perfect for almost any room in the house.

Ten years ago, homeowners were forced to choose between wood or laminate for a wood look and between tiles and stones for a stone look. These days are gone.

In fact, over the past decade, there has been a kind of technological revolution in the flooring industry. I know I know. Technological revolution? For the floors? But it is true.

As a product, WPC is cheaper than hardwood with significantly easier installation and maintenance. WPC will never need to be sanded or resurfaced and, of course, is safe from spills and water-related accidents. Its sealing capabilities make WPC suitable for environments such as bathrooms and basements and, because of its elegant and realistic appearance, can be used throughout the home.

Since its development, flooring manufacturers have seized the opportunity to enter the trend by creating their own versions of WPC. By using materials such as wood, bamboo, limestone, calcium carbonate and other materials, manufacturers can produce high quality flooring and more affordable options.

Because WPC is in such demand, manufacturers are adding unique features to bring out their product from the crowd. For example, Vivero, which is produced by Armstrong, has improved the durability of its WPC floors, allowing scratch and stain resistance as well as ease of cleaning. Instead of filtering into the soil, the liquid beads on the surface facilitate cleaning and eliminate deformation and discoloration.

WPC is not without its disadvantages, however. Not all WPCs are the same and even if there are high quality products on the market, high demand and production can lead to lower quality. The main material is an important factor in choosing between WPC types and brands.

The trends in 2018 have to do with disguise, floors disguised as other materials. And, in 2019, this trend is still strong.
