WPC flooring comes in a variety of styles, colors, and textures, often mimicking the look of natural materials like hardwood and stone. You can refer to the following styles of WPC flooring:
· Oak: A classic type of wood.
· Maple: Lighter with a natural grain.
· Stone: Textured surface similar to natural stone.
· Rustic finishes: A more distressed or distressed look option, perfect for farmhouse or vintage style designs.

Many WPC floors come with an underlay for added sound insulation and comfort. If your floor doesn't have an underlay, or you're installing over a concrete subfloor, you can add a separate underlay for added insulation and soundproofing.
-
No, WPC floors cannot be refinished. Unlike solid wood floor, which can be sanded and polished repeatedly, the top layer of WPC flooring wears away and once worn down cannot be repaired. However, this wear layer is designed to be strong and durable, reducing the need for resanding.
-
WPC flooring is durable but not completely scratch resistant. The top wear-resistant layer of WPC flooring provides some protection from scratches, but it can still be damaged if heavy furniture or sharp objects are dragged across the floor. Using furniture guides and keeping sharp objects off the floor can help minimize scratches.
-
Like many hardwood floors, WPC may expand or contract slightly with changes in temperature and humidity. However, WPC is more stable than traditional wood flooring, making it a better choice for areas with changing climates. We recommend laying the floor with a small gap between the floor and the wall to compensate for expansion.
-
The lifespan of a WPC floor depends on a number of factors, such as the quality of the materials used, the amount of foot traffic, and how well the floor is maintained. Typically, if properly maintained, a WPC floor can last 10-20 years or more, making it a long-term investment for your home or business.

Yes, WPC flooring can often be installed over existing flooring, provided the surface is clean, level and in good condition. For example:

WPC flooring is considered more environmentally friendly than many traditional flooring options. Although WPC contains synthetic materials, it also contains recycled wood fibers and plastics, reducing the need for raw materials. Additionally, many WPC floors are made without harmful chemicals such as formaldehyde, making them safer for indoor air quality.

WPC flooring is low-maintenance and easy to care for:
· Clean regularly: Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and debris from floors.
· Mopping floors: Use a damp mop with a mild detergent for deeper cleaning. Avoid excessive water when mopping, even though WPC flooring is waterproof, to prevent slipping.
· Avoid harsh chemicals: Avoid cleaners that contain bleach or abrasive ingredients as they can damage the floor surface.
