PVC flooring has excellent environmental protection performance, zero formaldehyde, and does not need to cut down wood. It can also be recycled and reused, with high sustainable development. PVC flooring originated in Europe and America and is very popular in Europe, America and the Asia Pacific region. At present, LVT, SPC and WPC flooring, branches of PVC flooring in China, are also gradually popularized. The application scenarios of LVT flooring are also very wide:
