Installing LVT with an UZIN LVT adhesive

At UZIN, we recognise that choosing the right adhesive is essential for a successful LVT flooring installation. Our extensive range of LVT adhesives offers outstanding bond strength, durability, and ease of application.

Why Choose LVT Flooring?

Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) flooring has become a leading choice for homeowners and businesses thanks to its remarkable durability, aesthetic appeal, and low maintenance requirements. Available in various designs, LVT can mimic the natural beauty of materials such as wood and stone, making it a versatile flooring option for any space.

When considering vinyl tile floor covering, choosing the correct installation method is essential. While the market offers convenient click and loose-lay options, we highly recommend permanent bonding for enhanced reliability and stability. This approach not only improves the longevity of the flooring but also enhances acoustic and thermal insulation, ensuring a comfortable environment.

Our Recommended LVT Adhesives

UZIN is proud to offer a comprehensive range of adhesives for LVT vinyl flooring installation. For areas with underfloor heating or direct sunlight exposure, UZIN KE 49 HT is the ideal choice. This adhesive ensures a strong bond while accommodating the unique challenges presented by these environments.

UZIN KE 2000 S is a pressure-sensitive adhesive for those seeking a user-friendly solution that offers prolonged open time. However, it's important to note that pressure-sensitive applications can pose a risk of joint movement. We recommend employing the wet set method when applying UZIN KE 2000 S to mitigate this risk and achieve durable, long-lasting results.

For quick, easy and reliable luxury vinyl tile (LVT) installations, wet-bed adhesives such as UZIN KE 66 are ideal and UZIN KE 66 is fibre-reinforced for increased reliability. In areas with less traffic UZIN tackifiers such as UZIN U2100 are suitable for installing certain loose lay or click luxury vinyl tiles quickly and securely as they help with slip resistance.
