What is the difference between LVT and SPC flooring?

LVT (luxury vinyl tile) uses flexible PVC layers and is usually glue-down or click installed, offering a softer, quieter feel. SPC (stone plastic composite) has a rigid core made of limestone powder and PVC, which gives higher dimensional stability, full waterproof performance and a floating click-lock installation over most existing hard floors.

Do you provide samples before a bulk order?

Yes. Samples are available so buyers can check color, surface texture, thickness and click profile before confirming a bulk order. Contact our sales team with your target specification and destination.

What is your typical delivery time?

With eight production lines located near major ports, standard orders are typically dispatched within 7 to 15 days after order confirmation. Exact lead time depends on specification, customization and order volume.

How can I check the quality of PP hollow plastic formwork?

Compare panel weight per sheet for the same thickness, inspect surface flatness and rib structure, and ask for performance under heat and cold. Low-grade panels tend to warp or show wave-like deformation in summer and crack in winter. Our blog explains simple on-site tests.

Can you produce custom designs and private-label packaging?

Because we integrate product development, design and production, we can discuss custom decors, colors, thickness, sizes and packaging according to your market and order quantity.

Knowledge Base

Frequently Asked Questions by Importers & Procurement Officers

Expert answers regarding click profiles, material stability, factory lead times, and quality control tests.

What is the fundamental difference between LVT Click and SPC Rigid Core flooring?

LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tile) click flooring utilizes a flexible multi-layer virgin PVC core reinforced with fiberglass sheets, providing exceptional underfoot comfort, acoustic absorption, and authentic flexibility. SPC (Stone Plastic Composite) features a rigid core composed of approximately 60-70% calcium carbonate (limestone powder) combined with PVC resin, rendering it denser and ultra-rigid. While SPC excels over uneven subfloors, LVT click offers superior sound dampening, warmer contact feel, and lighter handling for residential and high-end hospitality fit-outs.

How does Greenstar guarantee zero dimensional expansion or joint disengagement in hot climates?

Dimensional instability in vinyl flooring is primarily caused by unannealed internal stresses and poor polymer formulations. Greenstar integrates a high-tensile non-woven fiberglass stabilization grid in the center of the LVT matrix and subjects 100% of extruded sheets to automated continuous heat-annealing ovens at 80°C for 45 minutes. This process releases internal tension, guaranteeing dimensional shrinkage ≤ 0.10% under EN 434 thermal exposure testing.

What click lock profile options are available for custom OEM production?

We hold official licensing for both Unilin® (Angle-Angle and Uniclic®) and Välinge® (2G and 5H drop-lock) locking mechanisms. For long-plank installations, Angle-Angle systems provide extreme tensile joint lock strength (> 2.5 kN/m). For fast DIY and commercial installation, 5H drop-lock profiles allow up to 40% faster laying times without requiring specialized tapping blocks.

Can we request custom decor printing matching existing architectural wood species?

Yes. Our in-house R&D studio works directly with leading European film printing houses. If you provide a physical wood or stone sample, our color studio can execute high-resolution 3D color matching, gravure cylinder engraving, and sample trial print runs within 14 working days.

What quality inspection protocols are performed before container sealing?

Every production batch undergoes a strict 7-point QA check in our 3,000m² lab: (1) Total thickness and wear layer micro-gauge audit, (2) Click profile optical comparator inspection, (3) Squareness and edge straightness check, (4) Boiling water dimensional stability test, (5) UV color fastness & castor chair abrasion test (25,000 cycles), (6) Drop-impact resistance, and (7) TVOC chamber emission testing.

How do you handle PP Hollow Plastic Formwork panels alongside vinyl flooring orders?

Greenstar operates specialized extrusion lines dedicated to 18mm PP hollow plastic formwork panels used in concrete construction. B2B buyers can combine both flooring products and construction formwork inside mixed containers, allowing property developers and building material importers to optimize shipping freight and administrative clearance.
