Is MFB Flooring Really PVC Free What to Know
The main selling point of MFB flooring is being PVC free. But what does that actually mean. This article explains the material composition and why PVC free matters.
What PVC Free Means
PVC free means the product contains no polyvinyl chloride. PVC is a plastic used in many flooring products including SPC and LVT. PVC production and disposal have environmental concerns.
MFB flooring replaces PVC with mineral fibers and resin binders. The core is made from natural mineral materials. No plastic is used in the manufacturing process.
Benefits of PVC Free Flooring
Indoor air quality is better with PVC free products. PVC can release volatile organic compounds over time. Mineral based cores do not have this issue.
Disposal is easier with PVC free products. Mineral based flooring can be disposed of with less environmental impact than PVC based products.
Is MFB Completely Plastic Free
The core is plastic free but the wear layer and surface finish may contain some plastic based materials. The core itself is the main environmental improvement. The surface layer is similar to other rigid core flooring products.
True PVC free means the core material uses no PVC. MFB meets this standard.
