Coretec, a pioneer in the luxury vinyl flooring category, is widely credited with launching the first rigid core luxury vinyl plank (LVP) that transformed the flooring market. Now a flagship brand under Shaw Industries, Coretec remains the industry standard for high-performance, waterproof, and visually rich flooring ideal for residential and commercial applications.
For flooring professionals and contractors, Coretec simplifies installations and exceeds expectations. Its signature layered construction includes a waterproof core (WPC or SPC), a resilient luxury vinyl top layer, and an integrated cork underlayment, offering comfort underfoot, sound absorption, and dimensional stability. These features make Coretec ideal for high-traffic areas, multi-family units, or any setting requiring durability and moisture resistance.
Coretec’s click-lock floating system allows fast, glue-free installation, saving contractors valuable time. The planks are dimensionally stable and forgiving over imperfect subfloors, making delivering flawless results easier even in renovation scenarios. Installers appreciate the variety of plank sizes and thicknesses across Coretec Original, Pro, and Advanced lines, ensuring a match for virtually any project need.
For homeowners, Coretec offers stylish, worry-free living. All collections feature 100% waterproof construction, ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and homes with kids or pets. The brand’s ultra-realistic wood and stone visuals allow homeowners to enjoy the look of natural materials with much greater resilience and ease of maintenance.
The attached cork backing provides underfoot comfort and built-in sound insulation, creating a quieter home environment. Coretec also offers GreenGuard Gold-certified options, assuring low chemical emissions and safer indoor air quality.
