What Affects Luxury Vinyl Pricing?

Wear Layer Thickness

Measured in mils. Residential use: 12–20 mil. Commercial / high-traffic: 20–28 mil. Thicker wear layer = higher cost and longer warranty coverage.

Plank Width & Length

Wide-format planks (7"+ wide, 48"+ long) command a premium but create a more realistic wood look with fewer seams.

Core Type

WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) and SPC (Stone Plastic Composite) cores add rigidity and underfoot comfort but cost more than basic LVT.
