The first vinyl plank flooring was introduced to the market in the 1970s. It was constructed in planks instead of sheets of vinyl to resemble a more wood like appearance. As vinyl flooring technology has advanced, vinyl plank flooring has come a long way since those early days.
The original vinyl planks were designed to look like hardwood but at a fraction of the cost. Today, luxury vinyl plank flooring offers a much more realistic look of hardwood in the vinyl layer and comes at a more affordable price than hardwood. Often referred to as LVP, one of the newest forms of luxury vinyl plank is an engineered LVP with a stone polymer composite core (SPC).
Due to popular demand from our builders and architects, Ambient has developed top-of-the-line SPC rigid core vinyl plank flooring. Unlike other forms of vinyl planks, Ambient® is a rigid core, completely water resistant plank that combines limestone and polymers to create a beautiful more durable, stabilized, and dent-resistant floor.
Sometimes, you can always get what you want!

With so many types, forms and grades of LVP flooring on the market, it can be difficult to choose which is best. After reading reviews and clicking through images, it might appear that the many brands of luxury vinyl plank flooring are the same. But don’t be fooled: there are some significant differences.
Beginning with the outside, the Ambient® LVP (SPC) is both more visually and texturally similar to hardwood than regular LVP. SPC flooring is also more dent resistant and pliable so heavy furniture or high traffic won’t damage the planks as easily as regular LVP.
The biggest differences between the Ambient® and regular LVP happen with the construction of the planks. Regular planks have a simple PVC center that is flexible. The SPC vinyl planks have a rigid core made of stone polymer composite. SPC flooring is more durable than regular LVP making it an ideal flooring for commercial and high traffic areas - and a safe solution for kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. BONUS: Ambient® LVP also includes an acoustic underlay which will help absorb sound more than regular vinyl!
The high-density SPC core allows for a thinner plank without sacrificing durability, stability or comfort. The stone polymer also helps prevent expansion and contraction.
The SPC core offers a sturdier plank that feels comfortable to walk on but is also solid and stable. A regular LVP floor will not provide as much support.
Both SPC flooring and regular LVP can be installed over plywood, concrete, and other existing flooring; however, regular LVP will require more subfloor preparation as it is not as rigid as SPC. Regular LVP tends to take on the shape of any imperfections of the subfloor and SPC flooring is not likely to take on the shape.
Our LVP flooring comes in click lock (loose lay) planks. The click lock planks are installed using the fast and easy "floating" method. For our LVP floors with an attached accoustical underlayment pad, no underlayment is required and they can even be installed directly on top of concrete, and there is no acclimation period.
Ambient® LVP and regular LVP have many similar applications. Both can be installed on, below, or above grade. They are an excellent option for the entire house - including kitchens, baths, and laundry rooms. Because of their durability, they are also ideal for high traffic businesses like restaurants, medical facilities, and retail shops.
Regular LVP and SPC flooring are both water resistant, waterproof, and safe from spills, moisture and humidity. They are ideal for wet environments like bathrooms and kitchens, and also hold up well to pets.
All grades of vinyl flooring are made for easy maintenance and cleaning, just sweep regularly and use a light wet mop. The LVP grade of vinyl flooring allows for deeper cleaning because of its rigid core.
From the inside out, the innovative construction of Ambient® luxury vinyl plank flooring is made to last. It is an investment worth making and your long-term flooring costs are greatly reduced because of it.
The construction includes three layers beginning with an underlayment to absorb sound and add comfort. The rigid core layer is made with waterproof stone polymer composite to accommodate for uneven subfloors and add durability. The luxury vinyl print layer provides ultra-realistic hardwood imagery and is topped with a protective aluminum oxide poplyurethane finish to help protect the floor from stains, scratches, dents, and other damage.
Buying flooring is a big decision and it can be expensive. It’s also why both homeowners and commercial property owners turn to luxury vinyl flooring as an affordable, high quality solution. If you are considering investing in LVP, review the pros and cons below to help affirm your buying decision.

Easy Installation – Our LVP click lock floors are easy to install using the floating method. This click and lock installation makes our LVP an especially DIY-friendly project.
Easy Maintenance and Cleaning – LVP is low maintenance and easy to clean by sweeping regularly and mopping weekly. Determine how often to clean LVP by considering the traffic the floor receives. It is important to sweep LVP floors regularly to help prevent scratches. We recommend mopping with a micro-fiber mop and a pH neutral cleaner or the manufacturer’s recommended cleaner.
Affordability – LVP flooring is less expensive than hardwood. it’s an even more affordable flooring option considering the added durability, 100 percent waterproof, and scratch and dent resistance.
Damage – If hit with a sharp object the wear layer can be punctured. Heavy appliances, furniture, and pets can leave dents if enough weight or force is applied.
UV – If there is excessive exposure to sunlight, UV damage and/or fading may occur.
