How to choose PVC plastic floor and floor leather? This is a question that some customers will think about when purchasing floors. Now professional floor manufacturers hope to give you some advice on this issue.
 

In many cases, only from the surface, the pattern of pvc plastic floor and floor leather is similar, but if you touch it, pad it, and feel it, you can know that the two are actually completely different. So what is the reason why the price of PVC plastic floor can be higher than that of floor leather?

Leather flooring price

There are several main reasons for the price difference, which will be briefly analyzed next.

The first is the difference in structure. Floor leather has a simple structure and generally consists of two layers: the surface layer and the bottom layer. The surface layer is the printed flower film layer, which is used to present the pattern and color of the floor leather; the bottom layer is plastic, felt or non-woven fabric, spunlace, etc

From the structure, the plastic floor is divided into a multi-layer composite structure and a transparent structure. The former is composed of UV layer, wear-resistant layer, printed film layer, glass fiber layer and bottom material layer (also divided into foam bottom and dense bottom); the latter is not layered, and the pattern material from bottom to surface is all it's the same

The structure of the two is different, which also leads to the difference in the thickness of the floor. Usually the thickness of the floor leather is less than 2 mm, while the thickness of the plastic floor is generally more than 2 mm.

Secondly, it is the difference in wear resistance level. The wear resistance of the plastic floor is mainly determined by the wear-resistant layer, and the thickness of the wear-resistant layer determines the wear-resistant strength. From the structure of floor leather and plastic floor, we can know that floor leather has no wear-resistant layer, so the service life is not long under normal circumstances, and it is often used for temporary factory buildings, warehouses, offices, residences, and decoration site protection; plastic floor according to The service life of different thicknesses of the wear-resistant layer is longer than that of floor leather, and it is often used in medical, education, transportation, elderly care, office, sports and other fields.

Finally, whether it is the service life or the ground effect, the non-slip PVC plastic floor is better than the floor leather. Therefore, it is the most intuitive manifestation in terms of price, and the price is naturally high.
