More questions about

In-stock SKUs (most): 2-3 working days within Bangalore, 4-7 days across South India, 5-10 days pan-India. 2. Imported European SKUs: 4-8 weeks if ex-stock at warehouse; longer if ordered.

Corner protection on imported premium cartons. WHAT TO CHECK ON DELIVERY: 1. Carton count vs delivery challan. 2. Visible damage on outer cartons. 3.

Acclimatize 24-48 hours in the install room (even though SPC needs minimal acclimatization, it's good practice). 2. Verify subfloor moisture is dry, level within 3mm over 1m. 3. Confirm with installer the click direction & first row plan. INSTALLATION: 1. MD's empanelled installers charge ~Rs 30-45 per sq ft including underlayment (where applicable). 2. 600-800 sq ft per day per 2-person team.
Which spaces and applications is SPC flooring best for?
SPC is the most versatile wood-look flooring - works almost everywhere. Room-by-room recommendation: RESIDENTIAL - STRONGLY RECOMMENDED: 1. LIVING ROOM - high traffic, design-led. Wood-look 4-5mm SPC, 0.5mm wear layer. 2. BEDROOM - comfort + design. 4-5mm SPC with IXPE pad for quieter walking. 3. KITCHEN - water + spills + heat. SPC is ideal. Avoid directly under stove on cooking platform; otherwise full kitchen floor fine. 4. BATHROOM - yes, SPC works (waterproof core). Use slip-rated SPC or stone-look texture. 5. BALCONY (COVERED) - works. Avoid direct sun + rain exposure. 6. KIDS ROOM - scratch resistant, washable. Excellent choice. 7. POOJA ROOM - yes. 8. STUDY/HOME OFFICE - yes, quiet IXPE underlayment helps. COMMERCIAL - RECOMMENDED: 1. OFFICES - 0.5mm wear layer, AC4+ rating equivalent. 2. RETAIL SHOWROOMS - 0.7mm wear layer. 3. RESTAURANTS, CAFES - 0.7mm + slip-rated. 4. CLINICS, SALONS - hygienic, easy clean. AVOID: 1. Direct outdoor / sun-exposed areas (UV degrades over years). 2. Subzero unheated spaces. 3. Garages with vehicle weight loads.
What styles, looks and designs is SPC available in?

WOOD LOOK - most popular. - Oak (natural, smoked, washed, fumed) - Walnut (dark, classic) - Teak (Indian preference, warm) - Maple, Pine, Hickory - Reclaimed/distressed wood - Wide plank (180-220mm width) - Narrow plank (130-180mm) - Long plank (1500mm+) 2.

Matte (most popular for premium) 2. Satin / silk 3. Slight gloss 4. Textured / hand-scraped 5. Brushed
How do I clean and maintain SPC flooring?
SPC is the easiest wood-look floor to maintain. Daily, weekly and annual routine: DAILY: 1. Dry mop or vacuum (vacuum on hard-floor / no-beater-bar setting). 2. Wipe spills immediately with a soft cloth - no urgency from a damage perspective, but to avoid slip hazard. WEEKLY: 1. Damp mop with plain warm water + a few drops of pH-neutral cleaner (NOT vinegar long-term - vinegar etches the wear layer over years). 2. Wring the mop nearly dry - SPC doesn't fear water but standing water under furniture isn't ideal. 3. Microfibre mop works best. MONTHLY: 1. Inspect for any plank edge damage or peaked joints (rare). 2. Move furniture pads, replace any worn felt sliders. DO NOT USE: 1. Steam mops - high heat softens vinyl wear layer. 2. Bleach, ammonia, harsh solvents. 3. Wax, polish, oil-based cleaners - leave a film. 4. Vacuum with beater-bar engaged. 5. Abrasive scrub pads. FURNITURE PROTECTION: 1. Felt pads under all chair, sofa, table legs. 2. Wide-tread rolling castors on office chairs (not narrow hard wheels). 3. Rugs at entries to trap grit. LIFESPAN: Premium SPC at MD lasts 20-25 years with this routine.
Do SPC floors come with a warranty? What is covered?
All SPC sold at Material Depot comes with a manufacturer warranty. Coverage typically: WARRANTY DURATIONS: 1. Entry-level SPC (0.3mm wear layer): 10-12 years residential 2. Mid-range (0.5mm wear layer): 15-20 years residential 3. Premium (0.5-0.7mm + ceramic-bead UV): 20-25 years residential, 5-10 years commercial 4. Imported European premium: 25-30 years residential, 10 years commercial WHAT'S COVERED: 1. Manufacturing defects (delamination, click-joint failure, dimensional issues) 2. Wear-through of the wear layer under normal residential use 3. Fade resistance (within rated UV exposure) 4. Stain resistance (within rated cleaning protocols) WHAT'S NOT COVERED: 1. Damage from improper installation (use MD's empanelled installers to keep warranty intact) 2. Water ingress from subfloor (rising damp from concrete must be addressed pre-install) 3. Heavy point-load damage (heavy machinery, dropped weights) 4. Damage from incompatible cleaners (steam mops, bleach, abrasives) 5. UV fade from direct outdoor sun exposure 6. Damage from pets with untrimmed claws HOW TO CLAIM: 1. Keep your MD invoice + brand warranty card. 2. Photograph the issue. 3. Contact MD post-sales team - we coordinate with the brand for inspection.
What is SPC flooring?
SPC (Stone Plastic Composite) is a rigid-core waterproof flooring made from a tightly compressed blend of natural limestone powder + virgin PVC + stabilizers. It's the most popular wooden-look flooring category in India today. 5-LAYER STRUCTURE: 1. UV coat - scratch & fade protection 2. Wear layer (0.3-0.7mm) - daily abrasion shield 3. Decor film - high-res print: wood, marble, stone, herringbone 4. SPC rigid core (3.5-5mm) - limestone + PVC, 100% waterproof 5. Attached IXPE/EVA underlayment - acoustic + cushioning WHY IT'S TAKEN OVER: 1. 100% WATERPROOF - works in kitchens, bathrooms, balconies, basements. 2. NO ACCLIMATIZATION needed - install same day delivered, no 48-hour wait. 3. DIMENSIONALLY STABLE - doesn't expand or contract with Indian humidity swings. 4. CLICK-LOCK INSTALL - no glue, no nails. Lay on existing tile/marble/cement. 5. SCRATCH RESISTANT - wear layer protects against pet claws, chair legs, kids. At Material Depot, SPC is our most-sold wood-look flooring category - 1,500+ SKUs across European, Korean and Indian-manufactured ranges.
What are the advantages of SPC flooring over other wood-look options?
SPC's seven advantages - measured against laminate, engineered wood, vinyl sheet and tile: 1. 100% WATERPROOF - the only wood-look that survives standing water indefinitely. Use in kitchens, bathrooms, balconies. 2. DIMENSIONALLY STABLE - limestone + PVC core doesn't expand/contract with Indian humidity. Laminate and engineered wood do. 3. CLICK-LOCK FAST INSTALL - 600 sq ft in a day with one technician. No glue, no acclimatization. 4. INSTALL OVER EXISTING FLOOR - tile, marble, cement, even existing wood floor (if level). No demolition. 5. SCRATCH & DENT RESISTANT - handles pet claws, kid traffic, chair legs better than laminate. 6. ATTACHED UNDERLAYMENT - IXPE/EVA cushion on the back. Quieter and warmer than laminate without underlay. 7. WORKS WITH UNDERFLOOR HEATING - most SPC is compatible up to 27°C surface temp. WHEN NOT TO PICK SPC: 1. If you want REAL wood feel underfoot - go engineered or solid wood instead. 2. If you want to refinish/sand later - SPC can't be refinished; you replace. 3. Heavy commercial 24/7 traffic - go for 0.7mm wear layer SPC or commercial LVT.
