CarpetsPlus COLORTILE retailers are known for product, design, and installation expertise. But, with so many Luxury Vinyl Flooring options, you need an expert to guide you — and with us, that's exactly what you'll find. Here, we explain the features and benefits of rigid core or glue-down vinyl flooring to help you make an educated selection.

igid core flooring is what most people today think of as luxury vinyl flooring. The rigid core category has been around for nearly ten years, but its rapid growth and innovations have confused different names and acronyms. You may have
heard terms like LVT, LVP, LVF, WPC, and SPC. Let’s define these terms: LVT
Luxury Vinyl Tile (may or may not be tile looks because, in the beginning, this is what people called the entire category)
CarpetsPlus COLORTILE American Pride Gettysburg in color Baltimore
LVP
Luxury Vinyl Plank (wood looks)
EIR
Embossed in Register (the embossing follows the wood grain)
LVF
Luxury Vinyl Flooring (some use this term to refer to the entire category)
WPC Wood Plastic Composite Core SPC Stone Plastic Composite
