Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Is 12 inch wide vinyl plank flooring suitable for commercial kitchens?
A: Absolutely. Our commercial-grade 12 inch wide vinyl plank flooring with a 100% waterproof core and a thick wear layer (e.g., 30 mil) is specifically designed to withstand spills, grease, heavy equipment, and constant cleaning in commercial kitchen environments.
Q2: Can this be installed over radiant heated subfloors?
A: Yes, most of our rigid core LVP products are compatible with radiant heat systems. It is crucial to follow specific installation guidelines regarding maximum surface temperature (typically not exceeding 27°C / 80°F) and to ensure the subfloor is properly prepared and level.
Q3: How does the installation speed compare to traditional 5" or 7" planks?
A: Installation is significantly faster. Because each plank covers nearly double the area of a standard 6-inch plank, installers can cover large spaces more quickly with fewer seams to align and lock. This efficiency translates directly into reduced labor time and cost on your projects.
Q4: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom designs?
A: For standard catalog items, the MOQ is typically one 20-foot container. For OEM/ODM custom projects, the MOQ varies based on the complexity of the design changes (e.g., new wear layer, print, size). We work closely with clients to find feasible and economical solutions for custom orders.
Q5: Do you provide samples, and what is the lead time?
A: Yes, we provide physical samples of our standard collection. For evaluation, small sample kits can be shipped via express courier within days. For full container load (FCL) orders of in-stock items, lead times are generally 25-35 days after deposit confirmation, depending on the destination port.
