Rigid Core SPC
The latest innovation in luxury vinyl features a dense, rigid core composed of stone polymer composite which prevents planks from expanding, shrinking and shifting even with the presence of moisture or rapid temperature changes. An upgrade to traditional vinyl, SPC is also favored for its higher-end design quality that delivers an incredibly natural-looking wood visual and realistic feel.
