Is Vinyl Plank Flooring Waterproof?

Vinyl Plank Flooring or Luxury Vinyl Flooring is known as LVT/LVP and is naturally water resistant to moisture. However, water that is left to stand over long periods of time can ultimately damage the floor. Although Waterproof flooring is not flood proof, it does provide additional protection against flood prone areas like the bathroom or basement. For example, Metroflor Engage Genesis features ISOCORE Technology, a highly engineered closed-cell extruded structural grey core. Not only is the ISOCORE Technology 100% waterproof but it is also rigid, light, strong & dimensionally stable.

What is Water Resistant Vinyl Flooring?

Luxury Vinyl Plank or Tile that is water resistant is generally constructed of a wood plastic core (WPC) which is designed to stand up to the rigorous environments of moisture prone areas. Since vinyl itself is naturally water resistant to mold and mildew, it’s no wonder why vinyl floors are one of the top choices for high-moisture areas in the home. Who wouldn't want a water resistant floor? Waterproof vinyl plank flooring clicks together or floating floors is also popular among residential DIY'ers.
