7. FAQ
Q: Can this 8mm thick vinyl plank flooring be installed over existing ceramic tile?
A: Yes, provided the existing tile floor is firmly bonded, level, and clean. The rigid core and attached underlayment help bridge minor grout lines. We recommend checking for significant lippage or unevenness first.
Q: What is the difference between a 6mm and an 8mm thick vinyl plank?
A: The primary differences are underfoot comfort, sound insulation, and dimensional stability. Our 8mm product offers a more substantial feel, better sound dampening, and enhanced performance over subfloor minor irregularities, making it suitable for heavier commercial use.
Q: Is this flooring suitable for commercial kitchens with grease exposure?
A: Absolutely. The 20mil wear layer and urethane coating provide excellent resistance to common chemicals, oils, and greases. Regular cleaning with pH-neutral cleaners is recommended to maintain the surface.
Q: Do you offer samples, and what are the payment terms?
A: We provide free physical samples of our thick vinyl plank flooring collection to qualified B2B buyers. Standard payment terms are 30% T/T deposit with balance before shipment, though terms can be discussed for established partners.
Q: What is the lead time for a 20-foot container order?
