What's the difference between luxury vinyl plank and luxury vinyl tile?

When you begin researching luxury vinyl flooring, you'll quickly find that there are two main categories of this product line from which to choose. While browsing them both, you might begin to wonder what the differences are between the two, and we'd like to take some time to explain them.

Vinyl flooring could be your new favorite

The most significant difference between luxury vinyl plank and luxury vinyl tile is the appearance when it comes right down to it. Between them both, you're sure to find the perfect match for every décor scheme, no matter how modern or rustic.

Vinyl plank provides an outstanding real hardwood appearance, with intricate grain patterns, stunning stain colors, and finish types that add texture to create the most authentic pieces. When you take a closer look at the wide variety of plank formats, you'll realize your installers can make nearly any look you want for all your interior design requirements.

For the classic elegance of real all-natural stone and magnificent porcelain tile, turn to a vinyl tile. Here, you'll find the soft, natural patterns and nature-based color schemes that dramatically impact every area into which it's installed.

Both materials provide exceptional stability, durability, and functionality, thanks to a layered construction. The top wear layer, which is available in various thicknesses, helps protect against daily wear, so you'll see fewer dents and dings, even years after installation.

For even more peace of mind and protection, be sure to ask about waterproof core options. This gives you everything you want, along with complete protection against water damage.
