Frequently Asked Questions About Hardwearing Flooring

The most durable and hardwearing flooring options for high-traffic areas include ceramic tile, porcelain tile, luxury vinyl plank (LVP), and hardwood with a high Janka rating. These materials are resistant to dents, scratches, and wear from heavy foot traffic.

Hardwood flooring is generally more durable and scratch-resistant than laminate or vinyl, especially when it has a higher Janka hardness rating. However, laminate and vinyl can be good alternatives in high moisture areas where hardwood may not be suitable.

The Janka hardness rating measures the resistance of a particular wood species to denting and wear. Woods with a higher Janka rating, like hickory or maple, are more hardwearing and better suited for busy households than softer woods like pine.

Some low-maintenance and easy-to-clean hardwearing flooring choices are porcelain or ceramic tiles, luxury vinyl plank (LVP), and engineered hardwood with an aluminum oxide finish. These materials resist stains, scuffs, and scratches while being simple to clean.

Proper installation with a quality underlayment helps hardwearing floors last longer by providing a stable, level surface and absorbing impacts. Following manufacturer guidelines for installation and maintenance is also crucial.

For commercial or industrial hardwearing flooring, factors like slip resistance, chemical resistance, static control, and rolling load limits need to be evaluated based on the specific application. Durability, easy maintenance, and long lifespan are also priorities.
