If you’re looking for a luxury finish and a highly durable flooring product, a laminate vinyl tile might be the best choice. These specialized tiles are becoming increasingly popular because of not only their beautiful look, but also their versatility.

What Is a Laminate Vinyl Tile?

If you compare laminate vinyl tiles versus traditional wood or tile flooring, you’ll notice several key differences. Laminate flooring offers the look of hardwood or tile at a much more affordable cost than what you would pay for the genuine flooring.

Laminate vinyl tile is made of synthetic materials, and many of these tiles are designed to look like hardwood or stone. These tiles feature multiple layers, including an interior core board, a decorative image, and then a top wear layer that helps to protect the floor against scratches and wear.

Laminate vinyl tile is affordably priced and comfortable underfoot. It can help you to get the look of real wood or stone, and is also available with different effects, like finishes resembling stone.

These tiles are also much easier to install than hardwood or tile flooring, and many tiles support a DIY installation. They’re a versatile choice for residential and commercial settings.
