What is a wear layer?


When you choose luxury vinyl tile or plank, you’ll find that these materials come with a wear layer for added protection, helping to keep your floors looking newer longer. Today, we’re going to tell you more about what you can expect from this benefit and how it can serve you and your household, so read along for that information.

A luxury vinyl plank or tile wear layer is important


We already know the wear layer's vital, especially if you have children, pets, or both. This layer works to alleviate scratches, stains, fading, and more, leaving you with great-looking floors longer.

The layer is situated just between the image and finish layers and is only available in luxury vinyl and not standard vinyl flooring. Under most circumstances, it's made of urethane and is the most common choice for protective materials.

The wear layer is a great way to create a pet and child-friendly homes that give you a return for your investment, especially over time.
