Why SPC is winning the kitchen
Kira EditorialMarch 04, 20264 min read

Rigid-core SPC is now specified across kitchens and bathrooms where wood was once the default.
Stone Polymer Composite (SPC) flooring is fully waterproof, dimensionally stable across temperature swings and quieter underfoot than ceramic.
For kitchens and bathrooms, SPC removes the compromise between the warmth of wood and the resilience of tile. Modern wear layers and embossed-in-register visuals make the planks visually indistinguishable from engineered timber at typical viewing distance.
Specify a 0.55mm wear layer for residential and a 0.7mm layer for light commercial. Always include an acoustic IXPE backing.
