THE MATERIAL
SPC (Stone Polymer Composite) is a next-generation flooring material with a dense, rigid core, manufactured by combining natural limestone mineral and polymers through extrusion under heat and pressure.
The core consists primarily of natural calcium carbonate (limestone powder), PVC and stabilising components. This dense structure provides strength, impact and indentation resistance, water resistance and high dimensional stability.
STONEKS / SPC
Dense core. Resilient surface. Lasting performance.
STONEKS SPC (Stone Polymer Composite) is manufactured in specialised extruders by combining approximately 70% natural limestone mineral with 30% virgin PVC, other minerals and stabilising components under heat and high pressure. The resulting dense, rigid composite core brings the strength of stone to modern flooring technology.
With a density of approximately 2,000 kg/m³, the Endurance Tech core provides structural strength and impact resistance. Its high density improves resistance to everyday impacts and point loads, while helping maintain dimensional stability as temperature and humidity change.
Ultimate Shield surface protection technology provides additional resistance to scratches, stains and wear. High-resolution decorative printing creates wood-grain and stone-textured surfaces that realistically reproduce the appearance of natural materials.
STONEKS SPC flooring combines layers with distinct functions, from surface protection to acoustic comfort. Each layer contributes to the floor’s appearance, durability, structural stability or comfort in use.
Specialised UV coating technology provides additional protection against scratches, stains and everyday surface wear. It helps preserve the floor’s appearance and simplify maintenance.
A durable, transparent layer that protects the decorative surface against the effects of intensive use. Wear layer options are 0.30 mm (12 mil) and 0.55 mm (22 mil). The appropriate thickness is selected according to the application and traffic level.
High-resolution printing creates the colour, grain and visual character of wood or natural stone. Combined with the surface texture, it realistically reflects the appearance and feel of natural materials.
The mineral and polymer composition provides structural rigidity and dimensional stability.
The integrated IXPE underlay improves walking comfort and helps reduce impact sound transmission.

WHERE CAN IT BE USED?
SPC flooring can be used across a wide range of spaces, from homes and hotels to offices and educational facilities. The right choice depends on traffic levels, wear layer thickness, the subfloor and conditions of use.
Creates a consistent wood-look finish across living rooms, bedrooms, children’s rooms, corridors and entrance halls. Its water-resistant core also makes it an option for areas exposed to splashes, such as kitchens. A 0.30 mm (12 mil) wear layer with an IXPE underlay is a common residential choice.
Suitable for consideration in hotel rooms, corridors and reception areas. Rooms, corridors, bathrooms, restaurants and lobbies within the same hotel may require different flooring systems. Models with a 0.55 mm (22 mil) wear layer are a key option for intensive commercial use.
Suitable for private offices, meeting rooms and shared workspaces. Models with an underlay help reduce walking and impact noise. Selecting a wear layer suited to office traffic is important.
Retail stores, showrooms, restaurants and cafés are frequently used commercial spaces. Select a product suited to the traffic level and protect the surface with furniture pads and entrance mats.
Can be used in waiting areas and shared spaces. Pedestrian traffic, maintenance methods and project requirements should be considered together when selecting the product.
STONEKS SPC flooring is available with 0.30 mm and 0.55 mm wear layer options.
| Wear layer | Recommended applications |
|---|---|
| 0.30 mm (12 mil) | Residential and light commercial spaces: living rooms, bedrooms, corridors and home offices |
| 0.55 mm (22 mil) | Intensive residential use, commercial and high-traffic spaces: hotels, offices, retail stores, restaurants and clinics |
Outdoor use, continuous water exposure and specialist applications require a separate suitability assessment.
