LUXURY VINYL LIMESTONE TILE

Luxury Limestone Vinyl Tile offers the look of ceramic combined with the comfort of sheet vinyl flooring. The tile is constructed using a limestone core for durability. The limestone is covered with a layer of vinyl making it soft and warm for comfortable living. The tile is then finished with an Aluminum Oxide coating which provides superior scratch, stain and wear resistance. The finished product is an 1/8" thick tile that is nature-inspired with a realistic texture. It is available in tile sizes from 8" x 8" to 16" x 16" which can be sealed or grouted simulating the look of ceramic tile. It is also available in a plank which offers the look of wood.
