Introduction

• In primitive homes, floors were made mostly from
  a mixture of stone aggregates with lime
  solutions. Homes of the rich were of natural
  stones, but the poor were struggling with
  sub-standard materials.
• The invention of cement had eased the floor
  maintenance, but basic issues were persistent. To
  make floor appearance good-looking, floor clothes
  were invented, which was replaced by some
  relatively sturdy fabrics, including canvas,
  hemp, and linen gradually.

PVC Invention
In the 1950s, the invention of plastic chemicals
has given birth to PVC or Poly Vinyl Chloride
material, which was a long chain of the molecules
of Polyvinyl Chloride or simply vinyl as a base
material.

Layered Vinyl Flooring or Luxury Vinyl Flooring

• Later on, the layered vinyl flooring material
  become popular thanks to various protecting
  coving on the top and supporting base material at
  the bottom of PVC sheet to give it solid support
  against heavy foot traffic and unevenness
  developed over the time in the base structure.
• However, the term Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) is a
  commercial term, but technically, it is a layered
  vinyl sheet or tiles. LVT offers printing or
  overall appearance of natural stones and woods
  across the mass. Such luxury comes with a price
  but a lot cheaper than natural stones or
  ceramic/porcelain tiles.

How Is LVT Made?

1. Vinyl resins and plasticizers when stirring
together make a plastisol. 2. Along with
plastisol, AZO compound heated to produce vinyl
form. 3. The vinyl form has consistency to spread
in a slurry on the backing.

1. Now, slurry laid down on backing of felt or
wood pulp using a reverse roll-coater. 2. After
pouring, it smoothed out. 3. Now, coated sheet
placed in an oven to convert the vinyl form into
the gel. 4. Vinyl resin absorbs the plasticizer
and set.
8
1. The next step is to run the gel in a printing
press impressed with metal intaglio plates. 2.
With this, the gel gets impressions of decorative
patterns, including colors, designs, and
embossing effects.
9
1. A mixture of plasticizer and vinyl prepared
and ran on the printed gel. 2. When the
combination runs through an oven at a higher
temperature than before it creates a clear vinyl
by absorbing the plasticizer and melts. 3. Thus,
a sturdy layer forms on the top of the printed
layer and bear the brunt of foot traffic.

How Much Does Vinyl Flooring Cost?

• We know regular vinyl flooring is cheaper than
  other flooring materials, and it ranges from
  0.50 2 per square foot. However, luxury vinyl
  flooring is running between 2 and 5 per square
  foot. The differences in the cost is due to the
  quality of LVT/luxury vinyl tiles that are
  matching with woods and stones in appearance and
  other physical properties like hardness and
  water-resistance.
