Vinyl flooring is manufactured from multiple layers of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and other resilient materials. It is available in various formats, including sheets, tiles, and planks, with designs that realistically replicate wood, stone, ceramic, and concrete. Vinyl flooring is valued for its affordability, comfort underfoot, and long-lasting performance in high-traffic areas.
