When was SPC flooring invented?

SPC flooring, stone plastic composite flooring, is a relatively new flooring material that has many advantages, such as durability, waterproofness and easy maintenance. Its invention dates back to the late 1970s, but it has only become widely available on the market in recent years.

The invention of SPC flooring is related to people’s concern for environmental friendliness and sustainable development. As the demand for natural resources continues to increase, people are looking for alternatives to traditional wooden flooring. After research and innovation, SPC flooring came into being.

In the late 1970s, inventors and scientists began researching and developing a plastic material called PVC (polyvinyl chloride) as an alternative to traditional wood flooring. However, because PVC materials are relatively fragile, they cannot meet people’s needs for strength and durability. Therefore, research and improvement continued, and SPC flooring was finally born.

The core material of SPC flooring is stone-plastic composite core board, which is a composite material composed of stone powder, polyvinyl chloride resin and other additives. This core board has high density and stability, and can effectively resist pressure and waterproof. In addition, SPC flooring also has protective layers such as wear-resistant layers, UV coatings and decorative film layers to increase its durability and aesthetics.

With the continuous advancement of technology and the increase in market demand, SPC flooring has rapidly become popular in recent years. It has become a popular choice in commercial and home decoration and is widely used in various places such as offices, shopping malls, schools, hospitals, hotels and residences.

The invention and application of SPC flooring had a significant impact on the flooring industry. It not only solves some problems of traditional wooden floors, such as being susceptible to moisture, easy deformation, and difficult to maintain, but also provides more choices and designs to meet people’s pursuit of different styles and decoration needs.

Although the specific invention of SPC flooring can be traced back to the late 1970s, it has only begun to be widely used in the market in recent years. As people pay more attention to environmental friendliness and sustainable development, SPC flooring has emerged as a new floor material and has gradually become one of the preferred materials in people’s decoration and construction projects. With the continuous development of technology and innovation, SPC flooring will continue to play an important role in the flooring industry and create a beautiful, durable and environmentally friendly indoor environment for people.
