Strong, Stylish, and Simple to the Core

Your home is for living. Kids, pets, spills, busy mornings, and late-night movie marathons. That is why COREtec® vinyl flooring exists. Created for real-life durability, thoughtful design, and everyday comfort, COREtec luxury vinyl plank and COREtec luxury vinyl tile bring style and practicality together in one powerful flooring solution.

As part of the Shaw Floors family, COREtec flooring combines advanced innovation, beautiful textures, and easy installation with a lifestyle-first philosophy. It is flooring that works hard, plays hard, and never asks you to tiptoe around it.


Life Ready. Family Ready. Waterproof to the Core.

Life is busy and sometimes messy. That is why COREtec waterproof vinyl flooring is built to handle everything from dropped juice cups to playful pet zoomies.

COREtec delivers performance designed for real living:

  • 100 percent waterproof flooring
  • Kid friendly, pet friendly, family friendly
  • Advanced stain and wear protection
  • Comfortable underfoot and quiet in busy homes
  • No swelling, warping, or lifting

With COREtec, worries about puddles, paw prints, or party spills are a thing of the past. This is flooring made for homes that are full of life.


 

Quiet Comfort Built In

COREtec’s signature advantage is comfort at every step. Beneath every plank is a cork underlayment, offering warmth, softness, and sound reduction compared to standard vinyl. That means quieter playtime, calmer mornings, and softer steps.

Whether it is a toddler’s toy dropping or a dog sprinting across the room, your floor stays quiet, cushioned, and comfortable.
