Wholesale high-quality WPC flooring OEM & ODM at Factory prices from China

WPC flooring, which stands for Wood-Plastic Composite flooring, is a type of floating waterproof floor made from recycled wood fibers, plasticizers, and polymer resins. As an eco-friendly flooring material, WPC flooring has gained immense popularity globally in recent years due to its many advantages over other traditional flooring options.

Material and Construction:

WPC flooring is constructed by mixing wood fibers with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), or polypropylene (PP) in a specific ratio under high temperature and pressure. This process forms durable waterproof WPC planks or tiles that resemble real wood but are more scratch, wear, and water-resistant than normal wood floors.

Types of WPC flooring:

– Plank flooring: Comes in various plank formats ranging from 5″ to 7″ in width to mimic wood floorboards. Available in pebble, embossed, and micro-bevel designs.
– Tile flooring: Available in small tile formats of 12″x12″, 16″x16″ etc. for easy installation in any area. Come in stone, wood, and abstract patterns.

Advantages:

– Waterproof and moisture-proof – Perfect for high-traffic areas like kitchens and bathrooms.
– Scratch, stain, and wear resistant – Durable enough for homes with pets.
– Environmentally friendly – Made from recycled wood and plastic waste. Low VOC emissions.
– Easy to install – Floating planks click together for a DIY installation.
– Budget-friendly – More affordable than real wood or tile floors.

Disadvantages:

– Not as natural looking as real wood.
– Can expand or contract slightly with temperature changes.
– Non-porous surfaces may require special cleaning methods.

Suitable Scenes:

North America, Australia, and Northern Europe prefer plank floors for their living areas and bedrooms. Southern Europe and Asia favor WPC tiles more for their bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor areas.

Floor Sizes:

Planks are usually 5″ or 7″ wide and 48″ long Tiles come in 12″x12″, 16″x16″, and 24″x24″ sizes. Custom sizes are also available for large commercial projects.

Production Process:

Raw materials are dried, crushed, and compounded in an extruder at 200 °C temperature before being calendared into waterproof planks and cooled. These then undergo cutting, bevelling, embossing, packaging, and quality checks before shipping.

Environmental Credentials:

As it contains no added urea-formaldehyde, WPC flooring releases negligible formaldehyde and is certified as an E1 (very low emission) green product. It is 100% recyclable at the end of its long service life and contributes to cutting down deforestation.

Installation:

WPC flooring is a floating floor that doesn’t require glue or nails. Planks simply lock together via interlocking edges for a fast and easy DIY installation. Professional installation is recommended for large areas.

Underpayment adds extra moisture protection, soundproofing, and comfort. WPC floors can be laid over most existing floor surfaces, including ceramic tiles.

Maintenance:

Daily sweeping, dusting, or damp mopping is sufficient to keep WPC floors clean. For tougher dirt, use a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid abrasive scrubbing. Furniture pads are recommended to prevent scratches.

Regular waxing enhances the floor’s luster but isn’t necessary for care. Minor scratches can be sanded and resealed. Damaged planks can be replaced individually.

Pricing:

WPC plank flooring retails between $2.5-6 USD per sqft depending on design, thickness, and brand. Tiles range from $2-4 per sqft.

Wholesale OEM/ODM prices start from as low as $1.5 per sqft for large commercial orders over 1000 sqm. We offer volume discounts on custom productions above 5000 sqm.

LEED & Sustainability:

As a plastic composite, WPC flooring is highly durable, with a lifetime of over 50 years. It requires no sanding, staining, or finishes throughout its use – saving resources.

WPC contributes to LEED credits like Rapidly Renewable Materials, Recycled Content, and Low Emitting Materials. Its production involves minimal waste generation.

Patents & Certifications:

Our WPC floors are patent-protected under international design laws. All production lines meet ISO, Floor Score, REACH, and other global standards for safety, performance, and environmental compliance.

Floor Clip Design:

Our WPC planks feature a unique clip design that allows for easy installation without any glue or nails. The clip is made of durable polypropylene that securely locks the planks together at the side while allowing for natural expansion and contraction with temperature changes.

The clip has a flat top that sits flush with the plank surface for a seamless look. It is designed with angled sides to easily slide planks together during installation. The clip also has tabs on both sides that lock into the grooves of adjacent planks.

This clip system makes our WPC floors highly moisture-resistant, as it prevents any water from getting under the planks. The clips can be released with a pull bar for replacing individual planks if needed.

Testing and Certifications:

Our floor clips undergo rigorous lab testing for:
– Load bearing strength: Each clip withstands over, 1500 lbs of pressure without damage.
– Impact resistance: Clips do not break or come loose even after repeated impact loading.
– Temperature cycling: Clips allow planks to expand/contract normally after extreme hot/cold temperature testing.

The clip design is patented and certified to international standards like EN13329, EN14080, EN15102, etc. for structural performance and safety.

Warranty:

We offer a 25-year residential warranty and a 10-year light commercial warranty against manufacturing defects on our WPC floors, including the clips. The warranty covers wear, stain resistance, and dimensional stability.

We offer wholesale and OEM/ODM manufacturing services for WPC flooring planks and tiles. Minimum order quantities apply.
