Vinyl Flooring – Why It’s Worth Choosing
Vinyl flooring is gaining increasing popularity every year. It is especially popular in kitchens, where elevated water resistance is often essential for the installed floor. Its name comes from the material used to make it. These are floor panels made from durable vinyl on a so-called hard core. They often have the same installation method (click system) and similar dimensions as traditional floor panels known to everyone. Besides construction, they differ in thickness, as vinyl panels are usually thinner than other flooring options available on the market.
Resistance to Damage, is their main advantage. They surprise with their durability, handling moisture and normal wear and tear exceptionally well. Spilled water during dishwashing or a pot of soup dropped from your hands is no threat to them.
Convenient to Use. They are easy to maintain, don’t require care like wooden floors, and are warmer than ceramic tiles. Stains come off vinyl floors instantly. To clean them, you only need a flat mop and water.
Original Appearance. Vinyl flooring can imitate any chosen material – wood, stone, even fabric. This allows for playing with trends without having to choose between practical and visually interesting solutions.
What to Choose for Kitchen Flooring?
Modern vinyl panels mainly offer various patterns imitating wooden planks. The love for wood remains visible among the latest trends, which is why kitchens with wood-look flooring make such a good impression. They fit well in many different styles.
In minimalist or modern styles, light floors such as design W42/L24 or darker ones with stronger wood grain patterns like W6/L6 from the IDÉAL collection are great choices. Both pair well with kitchens featuring white walls and black countertops. For a rustic look, try panels W1/L1, which we especially recommend checking out.
As mentioned earlier, vinyl floors come in many different patterns. Seekers of original solutions may choose very elegant marble-imitating panels. Stone is one of the hottest trends for 2020 and pairs well with glam or art deco styles.
