SPC stands for Stone Polymer Composite. It is a rigid-core flooring construction designed to provide dimensional stability, everyday durability, and the appearance of natural wood. Zolana SPC flooring combines a decorative design layer, a protective wear layer, a rigid core, and an attached acoustic pad. Always refer to the applicable collection specification sheet for the exact construction.

SPC stands for Stone Polymer Composite. It is a rigid-core flooring construction designed to provide dimensional stability, everyday durability, and the appearance of natural wood. Zolana SPC flooring combines a decorative design layer, a protective wear layer, a rigid core, and an attached acoustic pad. Always refer to the applicable collection specification sheet for the exact construction.

Zolana SPC flooring is developed with a quality-first approach that balances design, performance, and reliable specifications. Collection features may include a 9 mm overall construction, a 28 mil wear layer, EIR surface texture, pressed bevel edges, an attached IXPE pad, and a precision locking system. Features vary by collection; the product carton and official specification sheet are the controlling references.

Zolana SPC planks are designed to resist topical household spills and moisture under normal use. Waterproof flooring does not waterproof the room, subfloor, walls, or building structure. Flooding, prolonged standing water, moisture entering beneath the floor, plumbing leaks, and excessive subfloor moisture are not the same as ordinary topical spills and may not be covered by warranty.

SPC flooring may be suitable for many interior residential and light-commercial areas, including living rooms, bedrooms,
kitchens, hallways, and certain above-grade, on-grade, or below-grade spaces. It is not intended for exterior use, saunas, steam rooms, areas with floor drains, or locations exposed to uncontrolled temperature or moisture. Confirm
the approved applications in the installation instructions and warranty for the selected collection.

It may be installed in many kitchens and residential bathrooms when the site conditions, subfloor, perimeter details, fixtures, and installation method comply with Zolana instructions. Spills should be wiped up promptly. The floor must not be used as a waterproofing membrane, and it should not be installed beneath permanent cabinets or fixed islands unless the product instructions expressly permit it.

In many cases, SPC may be installed over a properly prepared, clean, dry, flat, structurally sound, and securely bonded hard-surface floor. Existing carpet, cushion-backed flooring, floating floors, and unsuitable or damaged materials must be removed. Subfloor flatness and moisture requirements still apply.

Requirements depend on the subfloor, building level, local conditions, and collection instructions. Concrete installations commonly require an approved vapor retarder even when the plank has an attached pad. An attached pad is not automatically a vapor barrier. Follow the current Zolana installation instructions and applicable building requirements.

Do not add underlayment unless it is specifically approved for the selected Zolana collection. An overly soft or thick underlayment can place excess stress on the locking system, affect performance, and void warranty coverage.

Acclimation and jobsite-conditioning requirements vary by collection and site conditions. The building must be enclosed,climate controlled, and within the temperature and humidity ranges stated in the installation instructions before, during, and after installation. Follow the current instructions rather than assuming acclimation is unnecessary.

Certain systems may be acceptable when they meet Zolana’s written requirements. The heat must be embedded beneath the subfloor, surface temperatures must remain within the specified limit, and temperature changes must be gradual. Electric heating mats placed directly beneath the flooring may not be permitted. Obtain written confirmation for he selected collection before installation.

Only when indoor temperature and sunlight exposure remain within the limits stated for the product. Strong direct sunlight can create localized heat and expansion. Appropriate window treatments, climate control, expansion space, and transition requirements may be necessary.

No flooring is scratchproof, dentproof, or damage-proof. Zolana’s protective wear surface is designed for everyday use, ut sharp objects, grit, unprotected furniture, rolling loads, high heels, pet claws, and dragged appliances can damage the floor. Use entry mats, felt protectors, and hard-surface chair mats, and lift rather than slide heavy items.

Yes, SPC flooring is a practical option for homes with pets when maintained correctly. Keep nails trimmed, remove tracked-in grit, use non-staining mats, and clean accidents promptly with an approved pH-neutral cleaner.

Sweep, dust mop, or vacuum using a hard-floor setting without a beater bar. For routine cleaning, use a lightly damp microfiber mop and a pH-neutral cleaner approved for resilient flooring. Wipe spills promptly and never flood the floor.

No. Steam, excessive heat, wax, oil soap, polish, abrasive pads, harsh chemicals, and solvent-based cleaners can damage the surface or joints and may affect warranty coverage. Do not use cleaning products that leave a dulling or slippery residue.

Minor marks may be improved with an approved maintenance method. A damaged plank can often be replaced by a qualified flooring professional, depending on its location and the installation. Keep extra cartons from the original production run because future color and visual matching cannot be guaranteed.

Warranty coverage depends on the collection, application, purchaser, and installation date. Some collections may carry limited residential and limited commercial coverage. The official warranty document, including its exclusions, required maintenance, claim procedure, and proof-of-purchase requireme
