Advantages of SPC eco-friendly flooring

Advantages of SPC eco-friendly flooring

SPC flooring is a new environmentally friendly composite product with the following advantages:

(1) Waterproof and moisture proof. It fundamentally solves the problem that wood products are prone to decay and swelling after being absorbed by moisture in humid and multi-water environments, and can be used in environments where traditional wood products cannot be used;

(2) Insect and termite prevention, effectively eliminate insect harassment and prolong service life;

(3) Colorful, there are many colors to choose from. It has both natural woody texture and wooden texture, and can be customized according to your own personality;

(4) It has strong plasticity, can realize individualized style very simply, and fully reflects individual style;

(5) High environmental protection, no pollution, no pollution, and can be recycled. The product does not contain benzene and formaldehyde. It is an environmentally friendly product. Recycling greatly saves the amount of wood used, and is suitable for sustainable national policy for the benefit of society;

(6) High fire resistance. It can be effectively flame retardant, the fire rating reaches B1 level, it will self-extinguish in case of fire, and it will not produce any toxic gas;

(7) Good processability, can be ordered, can be planed, can be sawed, can be drilled, and the surface can be painted;

(8) Simple installation, convenient construction, no complicated construction process, saving installation time and cost;

(9) No cracking, no expansion, no deformation, no maintenance and maintenance, easy to clean, saving post-maintenance and maintenance costs;

(10) The sound absorption effect is good, the energy saving is good, and the indoor energy saving is as high as 30% or more;

(11) Compared with LVT WPC floor, SPC floor has less investment cost, less labor, less labor intensity and clean environment.

UV Roller Coating For Timber Flooring
Coating is an important component for timber flooring. It protects the surface of timber flooring from wear and tear, stains and enhance it appearance as well. There is a wide range of coating in the market and the technology behind this product is fast changing to cope with the ever increasing consumer demand. What is UV Roller Coating? UV coating is types of chemical element (liquid) that request ultraviolet radiation to become solid and form a protection layer for the surface of wood flooring. With this say, without the UV light, UV coating will not solidify. Therefore, UV coating is only suitable to produce prefinishes timber flooring because it’s request a production line.

Environmental Safety. UV finishes are low in volatile organic compounds, or low-VOC. That equals better indoor air quality and overall safer environment for floor owners. The increased durability also creates a longer life of the finish and floor, reducing impact on the life cycle of the floor.

UV Coating For Timber Flooring

Coating is an important component for timber flooring, it protects the surface of timber flooring from wear and tear, stain and enhance it appearance as well. There is a wide ranges of coating in the market and the technology behind this product is fast changing to cope with the ever increasing consumer demand.

What is UV Coating?

UV coating is types of chemical element(liquid) that request ultraviolet radiation to become solid

 and form a protection layer for the surface of wood flooring. With this say, without UV lamp, 

UV coating is not solidify. Therefore, UV coating is only suitable to produce prefinish timber flooring 

because it request a production line.

Five Major Compositions (ingredients) of UV Coating

Below table shows the functions for each component:

UV Coating Curing Process UV Coating Mechanism
Based on the pictures show above, the solidify process for the UV coating initially with the absorption

of UV light by the photoinitiator. This process will produce free radical which plays a role to stimulate

the chain polymerization between the entire compositions to cross-link and form a solid protection film 

on top of the wood flooring.

UV Coating Finishing System

UV coating finishing system is a technology that integrated different type of UV coatings to provide a better 
surface protection for the hardwood flooring. These layers of coating have different functions and characteristics, 
which are related to one another and indispensable from each other. Below table shows the different types of 
UV coating that available and the function:

UV coating finishing system can be developed and vary by deciding how many layers of the coating
and also the combination of different types coating according to the function that you need. The total 
layer of coating can be as simple as 4 layers to 10 layers or even more!! To develop an UV coating
finishing system is almost same like to create a recipe for a meal. Every manufacturer can created their 
unique system according to customer needs and make them outstanding from the competitors.

Although the layers and the combination coating can be changed, but the basic “sequence” need to 
be followed. Below picture shows the feature or the basic “sequence” for a UV coating finishing system:

From the picture shows above, basically UV coating finishing system can be divided into three different stages. 
Stage 1 is playing a very important function for the adhesion and toughness of the final finishing for the timber 
flooring. The coating that needs to use in this stage is basically UV water-based, UV primer and UV putty. 
Manufacturer can decide how many layers and combination that needs to use.

Physical properties like hardness, abrasion resistance, scratch resistance and etc. are contributed from stage 
2. There are various of UV basecoat can be used in this stage and again manufacturer is able to decide 
how many layers and the combination to achieve clients requirement.

Finally come to the finishing stage which is stage 3. We only advice to use UV topcoat for this stage to control 
the transparency, surface smoothness and glossiness. There are two type of UV topcoat which are popular use 
in the market: UV ceramic topcoat and UV aluminum-oxide topcoat. Timber flooring chooses UV ceramic
 topcoat in order to enhance the scratch resistance for the surface finishing. Strongly suggest the layer for topcoat
 is between 2-3.

Wood is a precious resource from the nature. Wood itself already has a natural beauty appearance, UV coating
is just an extra step to enhance the appearance and give extra protection in order to make the hardwood flooring 
more durable. With this say, UV coating is just like a cosmetic for the wood flooring!!

Below are some pictures to show the production line and the coating application machine:

Advantages of UV Coating

Compared to other types of coatings, the most significant feature of UV Coating is the fast 

curing speed. It can be cured between 0.05s – 0.1s under UV light irradiation. Traditional coatings 

like solvent-based coating and water-based coating need several hours or days to fully cure.

And due to the fast curing speed, UV Coating can be prefinished in the production line, the overall

 production time is save, hence increase the production efficiency. Prefinished Wood flooring with UV 

Coating can be installed immediately on site; there is no sanding, no waiting for the finish to dry compare

 with traditional unfinished wood flooring. Therefore, we can save the site installation time as well.

There is no Volatile Solvent in the composition of UV Coating; this is complaint with environmental friendly.

 Solvent-based coating normally content 30% – 70% of inert solvent, during their curing process almost all volatile 

into atmosphere, this will harm the environment. The UV Coating is different, UV Coating is 100% solid content, 

all the compositions cross-link during the UV curing process and there is no/low volatile organic compounds (VOC) 

that volatile into atmosphere, which in turn, considerably reduces air pollution, harm to the human body and fire hazards.

UV Coating is considering low wastage in application as well. UV Coating is 100% solid content, all the compositions 

during the curing process cross-link during the UV curing process and form a solid protection film; therefore it is fully 

utilize the coating. 

Besides that the application machine for UV Coating are designed to recycling the coating.
