Core & Back Layer
Creating balance within the construction is essential in maintaining dimensional stability. Continental vinyl is formulated and manufactured to meet these critical needs. The use of carefully tested and selected post-production and post-industrial recycled vinyl, along with a unique manufacturing method, allows Continental to produce the highest quality luxury vinyl components. The vinyl is free of mercury, lead and cadmium, and is formulated without ortho-phthalate plasticizers.
Today’s luxury vinyl features some of the most innovative, versatile, and high-performing flooring available. Premium vinyl flooring offers the richness and texture of more expensive natural materials, such as hardwood, ceramic tile, and stone.
