Can Vinyl Flooring Be Placed in Water Driven Areas?

#Collaborative post

Most of the time when people ask this question to suppliers or manufacturers of luxury vinyl flooring, the main room they think about is their kitchen.

The kitchen is a semi-water-driven area. Whilst it does not face the same level of water risk as laundry, bathroom or wetroom does, it still has water risk from sinks and stain risk from food and drinks preparation where sauces or liquids are a regular item.

On top of that, there is steam from taps and higher moisture levels, as well as being a high family activity area – attracting high levels of foot traffic and wear and tear.

When looking for the solution for kitchen flooring you need something that is protected whilst also being stylish and easy to maintain in the face of so many potential threats.
