SPC plank has a rigid stone-composite core. Vinyl plank is comfortable and quiet underfoot and fully waterproof through the plank. Laminate has a high-definition printed wood grain and a hard wear layer built for busy households. ZT Doors stocks all three: 24 SPC plank styles, 34 vinyl plank styles and 6 laminate styles, and many styles are stocked under more than one of these categories at once.
