Enhance Your Space with New Tile-Look Metrostone Flooring by Metroflor

In the world of Luxury Vinyl Tile, the focus is often on wood-look planks. But at Metroflor, we know that many spaces—from sleek modern kitchens to high-traffic mudrooms—demand the sophisticated, clean aesthetic of natural stone or porcelain.

 

Enter Metrostone. As our premier rigid core tile-look product, Metrostone represents the pinnacle of modern engineering.

 

It combines the upscale appearance of large-format tile with the durability and ease of installation that only Metroflor can provide.

 

Why Choose Metrostone LVT Over Traditional Tile?

 

 

While ceramic and porcelain have been the standard for decades, Metrostone luxury vinyl tile offers several distinct advantages that make it a smarter choice for the modern home:

 

• Warmth and Comfort: Traditional tile is notoriously cold and hard. Metrostone’s rigid core construction provides a more forgiving surface that is warmer to the touch—a difference you’ll appreciate on chilly mornings.
• Higher Slip Resistance: LVT floors like Metrostone typically offer a higher slip resistance than many polished ceramic or porcelain options, providing better traction in moisture-prone areas.
• No Grout, No Hassle: Say goodbye to scrubbing grout lines. Metrostone features a click-locking system that creates a seamless look, eliminating the porous grout joints that often harbor dirt and stains in traditional tile installations.

 

Metrostone Offers Authentic Stone Marble Visuals and Textures

 

Metrostone will floor you with its realistic visuals.

 

Whether you are looking for the high-end elegance of marble or the grounded feel of natural stone, this collection offers a range of textures to fit your design vision:

 

• Distressed & Smooth Looks: Choose between a smooth, contemporary finish for a minimalist look or a distressed texture that adds character and depth to the room.
• The Grout Effect Edge Profile: One of the most innovative features of Metrostone is its specialized edge profile. It mimics the look of a traditional grout line without the maintenance headaches. You get the visual definition of a real tile floor in a completely seamless, easy-to-clean surface.

 

Metrostone Features Watertight Technology, Perfect for Kitchens & Bathrooms

 

When it comes to kitchens and entryways, water is the primary concern. Metrostone is built to handle it all:

 

• Waterproof Material: As an SPC product, the material itself is 100% waterproof. It will not absorb moisture or swell if exposed to water.
• Watertight System: Beyond the material, the locking system is engineered to be watertight, preventing topical spills from seeping through the joints to your subfloor.

 

Note: While Metrostone is waterproof, it does not waterproof your subfloor. If a major leak occurs, the floor should be pulled up to assess the subfloor for potential damage. For a deeper understanding, check out our [Watertight vs. Waterproof deep-dive blog].

 

The Secret to Metrostone’s Long-Lasting Beauty: The Finish

 

A common misconception is that the wear layer does all the work. At Metroflor, we want to be clear: while the wear layer protects the design visual, it is the specialized finish on Metrostone that provides the primary defense against daily scuffs and surface scratches.

 

This high-performance finish ensures that your "stone" floors maintain their luster even in the busiest households. To further protect your investment, we recommend:

 

1. Using Window Coverings: Intense UV rays can bleach any LVT over time. Use blinds or drapes in sun-drenched rooms to keep your Metrostone colors vibrant.
2. Proper Maintenance: Use our Prevail floor care accessories, specifically designed to maintain the integrity of our specialized finishes.
