Material

Hardwood flooring takes material from lumber harvested forest, the best material is wenge, teak and mahogany. Vinyl flooring  is made of tiles of vinyl, petroleum and other chemicals. Vinyl flooring also can be rolled or in square or tiles like hardwood. Material of vinyl can be totally recycled. Both of these two flooring are green and safe.

Thickness

Hardwood flooring tends to have thickness of 0.75 inch to 6 inch thicker than 0.35mm to 6mm of vinyl flooring. The weight of hardwood flooring is much heavier than vinyl flooring in accordingly. As a result, vinyl flooring makes the carry easier, so is the costs of labor.

Price

Hardwood flooring is made of real solid wood from the lumber harvested in the forest areas, So the price are generally depend on the tree. And the harder the thickness, the more expensive the price and the more durable it is. The general price of hardwood floor is between $8 to $15 per SQF including the installation labor costs. Vinyl mostly costs $2 to $7 per SQF with installation, much cheaper than hardwood flooring.

Installation

Installation of hardwood flooring could be expensive and frustrating if something wrong. People who want to install hardwood flooring usually pre-cut them into planks.

Durability

Durability of hardwood flooring depends on kinds of factors like the wood used, humidity and maintenance. Properly finished and well-maintained hardwood floors can last for decades longer than vinyl flooring. Vinyl flooring is durable, but it is prone to tear. Well-maintained vinyl floor can almost serve for 15 years

Resistance to Moisture And Fire

Because it is made with natural wood, hardwood flooring boards are not water-resistant and aren’t recommended for floors that are likely to see a lot of moisture such as basement, bathroom and kitchen.Vinyl flooring, however, are waterproof. It’s more water-resistant than hardwood flooring. Both of these two types of flooring are excellent in fireproof.

Do You Know the Five S Principles of LVT?

Thanks to modern production engineering and an unrelenting focus on design, LVT vinyl flooring has succeeded in raising itself to the highest level.One of the biggest advantages offered by Top Joy’s LVT is its unique UV layer. This layer makes the flooring not only easy to maintain, it also has a positive effect on the environment indoors. Top Joy’s unique ingredient is based on the Five S Principles:

Stain: if you draw a line with a roller pen on a conventional vinyl floor then leave it for 4-6 minutes it will be extremely hard to wipe off, even with a detergent. Top Joy LVT's long-term maintenance largely dues to its protective UV coating.

Shine: an innovative finish gives Top Joy LVT an uniform and natural-looking shine, across various production batches.
This is shrill contrast to many other vinyl floors in the market thatare unable to throw off their ‘plastic’ look and battle with inconsistencies in shine in different batches.
  
Scuff: rubber soles or chair and table legs can leave dirty marks on floor. These marks are especially difficult to remove and can even damage your UV coating. Thanks to Top Joy LVT's UV layer, even the most stubborn stains won't stay long.

Scratch: micro-scratches can quickly get vinyl floors rid of their gloss. The strong, durable top coating of Top Joy LVT is ideal changeable for district based on intensive use and retains its primitive glossy look even with time flies.

Smell: Top Joy does not use harmful material like methanal in the process of producing its LVT. Whats more, the completely surface treatment keeps the emission of organic volatile matter to a minimum value, leading to a smell-free product.

Sustainability Key
Top Joy LVT flooring is a sustainable product based on four raw materials: PVC, chalk, plasticisers and recycled materials.Top Joy uses exclusively phthalates-free plasticisers and has been conduction research into non-toxic alternatives.

Under high temperature, the formaldehyde in material is more easy to release. So in summer, the concentration of formaldehyde is the highest than other seasons.  So try all the methods to cool the room.

3. Active carbon adsorption
Use the active carbon to adsorb formaldehyde.  The active carbon has developed the space structure and surface area, which could expose to the surrounding air, then adsorbs the pollutants in the air. The more developped, larger surface area of active carbon, the more stronger to adsorb pollutants.

4. Place more plants
