I have worked in the SPC flooring industry for 15 years, starting as a foreign trade merchandiser and now serving as a sales manager. Every year, I visit dozens of factories both domestically and internationally, witnessing the shifting landscape of global production capacity. People often ask me, setting brand bias aside, which manufacturing facilities around the world truly deserve attention in the SPC flooring sector?
This is not a question that lends itself to a simple ranking, as each factory has very different positioning, strengths, and target markets. From the perspectives of manufacturing capability, technological expertise, and industry influence, I have compiled a list of 10 representative large-scale SPC flooring producers globally, for the reference of those with procurement needs.
1. Haining Longtime Industry Co., Ltd. – Haining, Zhejiang, China
I place our company first simply because I know it best and can provide the most accurate information. Haining Longtime Industry is located in Haining, Zhejiang – a traditional hub for SPC flooring in China. The factory has a monthly capacity of approximately 500,000 m², with products primarily exported to North American and European markets.
Longtime emphasizes digital-print registered embossing technology, achieving high realism in wood and stone grain finishes. As a medium-to-large enterprise, its strength lies in rapid response to custom orders – from adjusting substrate parameters to colour-film sampling, usually completed within about 7 days. Certifications include FloorScore (US), French A+, and CE (EU), meeting standard market access requirements.
2. Zhejiang Tianzhen Technology Co., Ltd. – Anji, Zhejiang, China
Tianzhen Technology is one of the largest SPC production facilities in China by capacity and is listed on the A-share market. Its hallmark is high automation and vertical integration – from raw material extrusion, lamination, to profiling and packaging, extensively utilising robotic arms and automated lines. For large-chain channel clients with annual purchases of hundreds of containers, Tianzhen's production efficiency and cost-control capabilities are its core competitive advantages.
3. CFL Flooring (Creative Flooring Solutions) – China (Shanghai) / Vietnam / USA
CFL is a multinational manufacturing group with production bases in China, Vietnam, and the United States. This multi-country footprint allows flexible production allocation in response to trade policies and tariff changes. Technologically, CFL has deep expertise in click-lock systems and European-style design, and it also operates its own branded flooring lines.
4. Zhejiang Yongyu Home Co., Ltd. – Anji, Zhejiang, China
Yongyu Home started as a bamboo flooring manufacturer and carried forward its environmental philosophy into SPC. They were early adopters of non-phthalate plasticisers and recycled core materials, with comprehensive compliance documentation. For buyers with stringent green certification requirements – such as M1, Declare labels, or full lifecycle carbon reports – Yongyu's documentation capability ranks among the industry's top tier.
5. Zhejiang Kingdom New Material Technology Co., Ltd. – Tongxiang, Zhejiang, China
Kingdom was one of the earliest Chinese factories to mass-produce SPC flooring using the calendering process and ships significant volumes to European building-material retail channels. The company has a strong engineering culture, with extensive practical experience in addressing dimensional stability under extreme environmental conditions. If your products are destined for regions with wide temperature fluctuations and strong sunlight, Kingdom's formulations and processes are worth close attention.
6. Novalis International Ltd. – Design centres worldwide; manufacturing bases in China and Vietnam
Novalis is renowned for design innovation in LVT and SPC, having won multiple Red Dot and iF design awards. They are often ahead of the curve in colour/pattern development and were among the first to fully adopt water-based coatings, eliminating VOC issues from solvent-based UV lacquers at the source. Their manufacturing facilities primarily serve brand clients that demand high design standards and environmental performance.
7. Jiangsu Kentier Wood Co., Ltd. – Danyang, Jiangsu, China
Kentier is a well-known Chinese flooring brand, and its production system also serves export and project business. The factory is equipped with multiple German Homag profiling lines and continuous presses, covering product ranges from residential to commercial projects. With rich experience in end-user experience, they have mature control over details such as slip resistance, acoustic performance, and installation convenience.
8. Eletile (Shanghai Jinniu New Material Technology Co., Ltd.) – Shanghai, China
Eletile presents itself as a high-end design brand at exhibitions, while its underlying manufacturing base has deep expertise in SPC polymer formulations. Particularly in producing thin SPC below 5mm, they achieve an excellent balance of flexibility and fracture resistance, which is why many international brands choose Eletile for some of their premium product lines.
9. Armstrong Flooring – Factories in the USA and China
Armstrong is a long-established manufacturer in commercial resilient flooring. Although the brand ownership has changed, its production standards remain a valuable reference. Their quality control systems are stringent in abrasion-class and fire-rating tests, and many of their quality management methods – especially for products used in healthcare, education, and other commercial spaces – are still industry benchmarks.
10. Unilin Flooring – Belgium
Unilin is one of the major patent holders for global click-lock technology, and the vast majority of SPC factories have used its locking system under licence at some point. Its Belgian production site operates on clean energy and maintains extremely high production environment and emission standards. For buyers seeking genuine "Made in Europe" pedigree, full REACH compliance, and zero-formaldehyde-added products, Unilin is an unavoidable reference.
Final Remarks
These 10 factories each have their own focus; no single one leads across all dimensions simultaneously. When selecting a supplier, it is advisable to match choices against your product positioning, target market regulations, order volumes, and partnership model. On-site inspections and sample testing remain indispensable steps.
