If you're looking for a premium, low-profile vinyl floor that delivers authentic wood and stone visuals, exceptional durability, and design flexibility, glue-down vinyl plank is an outstanding choice. Glue-down LVP (luxury vinyl plank) adheres directly to the subfloor, creating a stable, long-lasting surface that performs beautifully in high-traffic areas, kitchens, and commercial spaces where a seamless, custom layout is desired.
Mannington offers proven glue-down luxury vinyl lines — notably ADURA®Flex — that are manufactured in the USA and designed for pattern installation (herringbone, subway, etc.). ADURA®Flex is built for long runs without transitions and includes protective technologies like Microban® surface protection and advanced scratch resistance for household and commercial use. Mannington also provides other ADURA® families with robust cores, enhanced sound reduction, and waterproof performance for demanding spaces.
Mannington's glue-down LVT gives you pattern freedom, strong wear layers, and technologies aimed at cleaner, longer-lasting floors — making it a top option for homeowners who want a refined, stable installation with proven warranties and brand backing.
:contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}Karndean is a leader in luxury vinyl with a wide range of formats including traditional gluedown LVT. Karndean’s gluedown format is fixed directly to the subfloor with adhesive, allowing installers to create highly custom looks with decorative borders, inlays, and patterned installations — ideal for kitchens, hospitality, and bespoke residential spaces.
Karndean’s collections are celebrated for natural visuals, layered construction, and technical performance. The gluedown approach unlocks the full creative potential of Karndean’s designs — use different planks and tiles to create zones, feature areas, or intricate patterns that elevate a room’s aesthetic.
Proper glue-down installation takes precise subfloor prep: the surface must be clean, level, dry and primed if required. Full-spread adhesive (recommended by the manufacturer) creates a permanent bond; because of that permanence, accuracy during layout and acclimation of the product is essential. Routine maintenance is simple — sweep or vacuum regularly, mop with a manufacturer-approved cleaner, and protect high-traffic areas with mats and furniture pads.
