Buy SPC Wall Panels with Confidence

Waterproof SPC wall panels have become one of the most practical and design-driven materials in the modern building industry. They combine strength, waterproof protection, and fast installation — perfect for both large-scale projects and multi-store retail environments.


This guide provides contractors and retail chains with everything they need to specify, source, install, and maintain SPC wall panels effectively. Whether you manage project fit-outs or product assortments, here’s how to make the right decisions from day one.


Why SPC Wall Panels for Commercial Projects


SPC wall panels offer outstanding durability, waterproof performance, and aesthetic consistency, making them ideal for both commercial and residential interiors.


For contractors, SPC panels deliver faster installation, reduced callbacks, and clean jobsite finishes. For retail chains, they offer easy-to-maintain surfaces, consistent colors across store rollouts, and an elevated design look that stays fresh for years.


Key Advantages:


100% waterproof and fire-resistant structure

Realistic wood, marble, and stone textures

Click-lock system for quick installation

Low maintenance and easy cleaning

Sustainable, low-VOC, and recyclable materials


SPC wall panels are the perfect mix of performance and design — a solution that satisfies engineers, installers, and interior designers alike.


Contractor Buying Guide (Step-by-Step)


If you’re a contractor managing multiple installations or turnkey projects, this section walks you through each stage — from planning to installation.


Step 1: Define Scope and Performance Requirements


Identify the functional needs of your project:

Room types and humidity exposure

Fire resistance class and VOC standards

Acoustic or thermal performance needs

Cleaning and maintenance protocols


Setting the right performance targets ensures the correct SPC configuration for every environment.


Step 2: Choose Construction and Finish


SPC wall panels come in various specifications to meet your design goals and budget.


Thickness: 3.5 mm to 8 mm

Surface Options: Wood grain, marble, solid color, matte, gloss, or embossed

Edge Type: Click-lock or flat edge (for adhesive mounting)

Size: Standard 1220 × 2440 mm or custom dimensions

Color Consistency: Trioflor controls ΔE tolerance for batch uniformity


Step 3: Determine Installation Method


SPC panels can be installed directly on drywall, tile, or cement board depending on the site conditions.


Click-Lock System: Ideal for fast commercial installs; minimal dust and noise.

Adhesive Mounting: Suitable for irregular surfaces or existing walls.

Always confirm substrate flatness and moisture level before installation for best results.


Step 4: Verify Compliance and Documentation


For professional contractors, compliance is crucial. Make sure your supplier provides:


ISO and CE certifications

Fire performance report (EN 13501)

VOC and formaldehyde emission test results

Anti-bacterial and durability reports


Trioflor supplies complete documentation for easy approval during tender or inspection stages.


Step 5: Plan Production, Shipping, and Logistics


A successful project depends on accurate scheduling.


Lead time: 3–5 weeks production depending on order size

Shipping: FCL (Full Container Load) or LCL (Less than Container Load)

Packaging: Protective corner guards and moisture-proof film

On-Site Handling: Panels should acclimate 24–48 hours before installation


Trioflor’s export team coordinates shipment, tracking, and delivery to minimize downtime.


Step 6: Warranty and After-Care


Reliable suppliers back their materials with long-term warranties. Trioflor provides:

Standard limited warranty for product integrity

Cleaning and maintenance guide


Replacement or support for damaged panels during shipment


Tip: Always keep spare panels from each batch for future repairs or color matching.


Retail Chain Buying Guide


Retail buyers and category managers face unique challenges — balancing design consistency, cost efficiency, and supply reliability across multiple stores. SPC wall panels address all three.


Assortment Planning

Select high-turnover, cross-market designs that appeal to various regional preferences.

Core SKUs: Neutral wood tones, light stones, and warm greys

Seasonal SKUs: Marble or textured finishes for trend updates

Application: Feature walls, fitting rooms, checkout zones, and restrooms


A focused assortment simplifies replenishment and improves sell-through rates.
