What is the difference between LVT and Floorify?

The difference between LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tile) and Floorify is mainly in its composition, ease of installation and Floorify's unique features. Here are the main differences:

Composition

LVT: Traditional LVT floors are composed of multiple layers of vinyl, which are often flexible and have a thin hard top layer.

Floorify click floors: Floorify click floors are rigid vinyl floors with a strong, hard core (rigid core) and an integrated or separate underlay. This ensures extra strength, stability, and easy installation on various surfaces.

Floorify glue-down floors: Floorify gluedown vinyl floors are made of high-quality layers that create a strong, wear-resistant floor, fully adhered to the subfloor. Their low build-up height and stable structure make them perfect for renovations, heavy use, and situations where a sleek, seamless finish is key.

Installation

LVT: LVT floors are often installed with glue, which can take more time and preparation. The subfloor must be perfectly level, and drying times need to be considered.

Floorify click floors: Floorify uses a simple click system that installs floating, without glue. This makes the process faster and easier — even on existing floors. You can walk on it immediately after installation, ideal for quick results.

Floorify glue-down floors: Opting for Floorify gluedown vinyl means opting for a super sleek, seamless finish. These floors are glued directly to the subfloor, require a bit more preparation, but offer maximum stability and are ideal for low-build projects.

Sustainability

LVT: Although durable, traditional LVT floors can be more susceptible to impressions and scratches.

Floorify Floors: All Floorify floors are extremely durable and resistant to scratches, stains and indentations thanks to the strong core and protective top layer.

Water resistance

LVT: LVT is water-resistant, but can swell or deform when exposed to water for long periods.

Floorify Floors: All Floorify floors are completely waterproof, making them ideal for use in damp rooms such as bathrooms and kitchens.

Maintenance

LVT: Requires regular maintenance and special cleaning products to protect the top layer.

Floorify Floors: Floorify floors are low-maintenance and do not require special products for daily maintenance.

In short, Floorify combines the advantages of traditional LVT with added durability, more comfort, and a finish tailored to your project. Whether you choose the floating click system or the fully adhered gluedown version, you get a high-quality floor that’s perfect for both residential and commercial spaces.
