How many years can PVC plastic flooring be used?

Customers often ask a question: "How long can your plastic floor last?" Many people may give a rough answer, such as 10 years, 15 years or 20 years, but in fact these are inaccurate.

The service life of plastic flooring is affected by many factors, including the following aspects:

1. Use occasions of plastic floor: Different places of use will cause different degrees of wear and tear on the floor. For example, public places with dense traffic are relatively easy to wear and have a relatively short service life, while homes or office spaces with low traffic may have a longer service life.

2. Construction technology: Correct construction technology has a great impact on the service life of plastic flooring. The environmental temperature and humidity at the construction site, base treatment, and technical level of the construction personnel will all affect the quality and service life of the floor.

3. Daily maintenance: Correct daily maintenance is also important to extend the service life of plastic flooring. Timely removal of dirt, avoidance of prolonged soaking, regular maintenance, prevention of collisions with sharp objects, and entry of floor mats can help keep the floor in good condition.

4. Plastic floor quality: The quality of the floor is related to many factors, such as whether the main raw material is PVC new material or recycled material, whether the production process is calendered or coated, whether the wear-resistant layer is coated, and whether it contains glass fiber layer, the proportion of PVC and stone powder, the thickness of the surface wear-resistant layer, etc. The higher the proportion of PVC in the transparent plastic floor, the better the wear resistance of the floor and the longer its service life. For composite plastic floors, the thickness of the wear-resistant layer is the key to determining the service life. The thicker the wear-resistant layer, the longer the service life.

Therefore, the service life of plastic flooring not only depends on product quality, but also is affected by many factors such as the use occasion, construction technology, and daily maintenance. If you want to choose a suitable plastic floor and extend its service life, it is recommended to choose a professional flooring service provider to understand various factors and take comprehensive considerations to ensure that the floor can be used stably for a long time.
