1. What Is Polymer Vinyl Woven Material?
Vinyl belongs to the PVC family. However, standard PVC has limited dimensional stability and tends to shrink or deform under changing temperature and humidity. By adding fiberglass during production, the product’s stability is greatly enhanced, solving the shrinkage issue.
High‑performance polymer vinyl woven carpet typically uses a five‑layer composite structure, each layer serving a specific purpose:
Surface woven layer – provides unique textures and aesthetic appeal.
Color‑matching layer – ensures colour consistency even after long‑term use.
Elastic foam layer – offers comfortable cushioning and acoustic absorption.
Fiberglass reinforcement layer – improves dimensional stability, prevents deformation.
Bottom bonding layer – ensures strong adhesion to the subfloor.
This multi‑layer engineering allows vinyl woven carpet to achieve an ideal balance between design and functionality.
2. Outstanding Performance Beyond Good Looks
Polymer vinyl woven carpet is highly regarded for its comprehensive performance advantages:
Distinctive woven aesthetics – Unlike ordinary PVC flooring, it displays rich, authentic woven textures – from fine linen‑like finishes to bold geometric weaves.
Chemical & biological resistance – Resistant to acids, alkalis, and microbes; waterproof, mould‑proof, wear‑resistant, and sound‑absorbing.
Eco‑friendly & healthy – Contains no formaldehyde or styrene; does not harbour dust mites – ideal for people with allergies.
Lightweight yet strong – Thickness: 2–3 mm; weight: approx. 2–3 kg/m². Reduces building load and simplifies transport.
Flame retardant – Achieves Class B1 (difficult to ignite) fire rating. Self‑extinguishing when the flame source is removed.
Easy to clean – Dense, non‑porous surface repels stains; simply wipe with a damp cloth or rinse with water.
Fast installation – Ready for use 24 hours after installation, shortening project timelines and lowering labour costs.
3. Product Range for Diverse Applications

Combines decoration with structural strength.
4. Installation Essentials
Installing polymer vinyl woven carpet is straightforward, but correct procedure ensures long‑lasting results:
Starting layout – For tiles, mark layout lines (cross, T‑shape, or diagonal) and begin from those lines. For rolls, mark overlap lines, align the edges, and roll from one side of the room to the other.
Adhesive application – Use suitable adhesives (white glue, white cement, or 404 adhesive). Apply evenly on the subfloor with a notched trowel. For rubber‑based adhesives, also coat the carpet backing and allow 5–10 minutes of open time before bonding.
Bonding & rolling – Align one end of the carpet with the layout line, press onto the floor, then use a rubber roller or wooden mallet to compact firmly. If any area does not adhere tightly, place heavy objects on top as weights until set. Ensure seams are straight and tight; wipe away excess adhesive immediately.
