The real innovator in the world of vinyl is hybrid plank. The hybrid flooring, combines the best attributes of vinyl and with some of laminate’s preferable traits. A hybrid floor, consists of a surface treatment and clear wear layer to protect the floor, then the decorative layer to provide the look, much like a traditional vinyl floor. It’s beneath the decorative layer that things get a little different. The vinyl top is attached to a rigid core, designed to be very environmentally stable, whether that’s to extremes in temperature, water, or direct heat (underfloor heating or north facing windows). With a stable modern core, made from inert, well constructed materials, your flooring is far less likely to be impacted by seasonal environmental changes, or your family’s lifestyle changes. Sounds simple, but keeping a floor looking great starts with a solid foundation. Finally, underneath the core, comes an acoustic backing, further dampening sound already muted by the top vinyl. The result, is a flooring innovation that provides a great looking, highly stable floor, that comes ready to click and install with minimal preparation for a lifetime of service.
