What is PVC Flooring?

PVC flooring is a type of plastic flooring material. In the flooring industry, PVC and vinyl are often used to describe similar plastic flooring products. Therefore, PVC flooring is also commonly known as vinyl flooring.

PVC Flooring Roll vs Vinyl Plank Flooring

In the flooring market, PVC flooring can appear in different forms. One common type is vinyl plank or vinyl tile flooring, which is usually supplied in small pieces and often imitates wood, stone or tile designs.

Another type is rolled flooring. This product is supplied in rolls and can be laid directly on the floor like a carpet. In English, it is usually called PVC flooring roll, vinyl floor sheet, PVC vinyl flooring sheet or floor covering roll.

For importers and wholesalers, rolled PVC flooring is usually easier to sell in markets where customers need affordable, flexible and easy-to-install floor covering for homes, rental rooms, small shops and temporary renovation projects.

Why Is PVC Flooring Roll Also Called PVC Carpet?

Because PVC flooring roll is supplied in a roll shape and covers the floor like a carpet, many buyers in different regions call it PVC carpet, vinyl floor mat, PVC floor mat or plastic carpet.

These names may sound different, but in many B2B enquiries they refer to the same product category: rolled PVC flooring used as a flexible floor covering material.

What About Linoleum, Rubber Carpet and TIKAR GETAH?

Linoleum is technically a different type of rolled flooring made from natural materials. However, in some markets, people still use the word linoleum to describe rolled plastic flooring or PVC sheet flooring.

In some African markets, buyers may call this product rubber carpet, even when the material is actually PVC. In Malay-speaking markets, TIKAR GETAH may also be used by local buyers to describe this kind of rolled floor covering.

That is why a China supplier may receive enquiries using different words such as PVC carpet, vinyl sheet, plastic floor mat, linoleum roll, rubber carpet or tikar getah. The buyer may still be looking for PVC flooring roll.
