What Is 8mm Vinyl Flooring?
8mm vinyl flooring refers to the overall thickness of the flooring plank.
Depending on the manufacturer, an 8mm luxury vinyl plank may contain multiple layers, including:
- Protective wear layer
- Decorative vinyl layer
- SPC or WPC rigid core
- Attached underlayment, where applicable
Two products can both be 8mm thick but have different constructions and performance characteristics.
For that reason, thickness should not be the only specification you compare.
When choosing an 8mm vinyl floor, also consider the:
- Wear layer
- Core construction
- Locking system
- Underlayment
- Plank dimensions
- Warranty
- Installation method
- Intended application
8mm SPC Vinyl Flooring
SPC vinyl flooring is a popular type of rigid-core luxury vinyl flooring.
SPC uses a rigid composite core that provides a firm, stable structure while the vinyl surface provides realistic wood-look designs.
Mega Flooring carries several 8mm SPC collections.
Vizion Floor 8mm Vinyl
The Yoho – Vizion Floor 8mm Vinyl Collection features an 8mm SPC rigid core, 22 mil wear layer, 5Gi locking system and FloorScore certification. The plank measures approximately 7.2" x 60.8".

Why Choose 8mm Luxury Vinyl Flooring?
There are several reasons homeowners and contractors consider 8mm luxury vinyl flooring.
Rigid-Core Construction
Many 8mm products use rigid SPC or WPC cores designed to provide a stable flooring structure.
Realistic Wood Appearance
Modern luxury vinyl flooring can feature detailed grain patterns, embossing and realistic colour variation designed to reproduce the appearance of natural hardwood.
Durable Wear Layers
Mega Flooring's current 8mm products include wear layers such as 20 mil and 22 mil, depending on the collection.
Easy Maintenance
Vinyl flooring is generally easy to maintain, making it a practical option for busy households and selected commercial environments.
Multiple Locking Systems
Depending on the manufacturer, 8mm vinyl may use systems such as:
- 5Gi
- 5G
- Välinge
- Drop Lock
- Other manufacturer-specific locking profiles
8mm Vinyl Flooring Wear Layer
The wear layer is one of the most important specifications to consider when comparing luxury vinyl flooring.
Wear layers are generally measured in mil.
For example, current Mega Flooring 8mm products include:
- 20 mil – Vidar VS81
- 22 mil – Vizion Yoho
- 20 mil – Next Floor Mayfair
When comparing floors, consider the wear layer together with the core construction, finish, locking system and warranty.
A thicker wear layer can be an important consideration for areas exposed to heavier everyday traffic.
Is 8mm Vinyl Flooring Waterproof?
Many modern SPC and WPC vinyl flooring products are manufactured with waterproof construction.
However, do not assume every 8mm vinyl product is automatically waterproof simply because it is vinyl.
Always check the specifications for the exact flooring collection.
Waterproof luxury vinyl can be considered for areas such as:
- Kitchens
- Bathrooms
- Basements
- Laundry rooms
- Entryways
- Condos
- Rental properties
Proper installation and subfloor preparation are still essential.
8mm Vinyl Flooring for Basements
8mm SPC vinyl flooring is a popular choice for finished basement renovations.
Its rigid-core construction and hardwood-inspired appearance provide an alternative to traditional hardwood flooring while offering practical characteristics associated with luxury vinyl.
8mm vinyl can be used in spaces such as:
- Basement family rooms
- Recreation rooms
- Home offices
- Bedrooms
- Rental suites
- Home gyms
Before installation, address any moisture issues and make sure the subfloor meets the manufacturer's requirements.
8mm Vinyl Flooring for Condos
8mm luxury vinyl flooring is also an option for Toronto condo renovations.
The selection of oak-inspired colours, realistic textures and rigid-core constructions makes it possible to achieve a modern hardwood look while using vinyl flooring.
However, condo buildings may have specific requirements for:
- Sound ratings
- Underlayment
- IIC
- STC
- Installation methods
- Approved flooring products
Always check with your condo management before purchasing flooring.
8mm Vinyl Flooring for Rental Properties
Rental properties often require flooring that balances appearance, durability, maintenance and cost.
Selected 8mm vinyl flooring can be considered for:
- Rental homes
- Condos
- Apartments
- Investment properties
- Basement apartments
When choosing flooring for a rental property, compare the wear layer, warranty, installation system, water resistance and availability of replacement material.
8mm Vinyl Flooring for Commercial Projects
Mega Flooring also supplies flooring for contractors, builders, designers and commercial projects throughout Toronto and the GTA.
Depending on the specific manufacturer's specifications, selected 8mm vinyl products may be suitable for:
- Offices
- Retail spaces
- Professional offices
- Rental buildings
- Multi-unit residential projects
- Light commercial applications
Always verify the commercial warranty and approved application for the specific product.
8mm Vinyl Flooring Colours
One of the biggest advantages of luxury vinyl flooring is the large selection of colours and wood-look designs.
White Oak Vinyl Flooring
White oak-inspired colours provide a bright, contemporary appearance and work well with modern interiors.
Natural Oak Vinyl Flooring
Natural oak colours offer a versatile hardwood-inspired look suitable for traditional and contemporary spaces.
Silver & Grey Oak Vinyl
Silver and grey tones provide a clean, modern appearance and pair well with neutral interiors.
Warm Oak Vinyl Flooring
Warm brown and golden oak tones can create a traditional and inviting atmosphere.
Weathered Oak Vinyl Flooring
Weathered designs can provide a more rustic hardwood appearance while maintaining the practical characteristics of luxury vinyl.
8mm Vinyl Flooring vs 7mm Vinyl Flooring
Mega Flooring carries both 7mm and 8mm vinyl flooring, allowing customers to compare different constructions and specifications.
Our current 7mm collection includes products from Vizion Floor and other manufacturers, including SPC products such as Acadia, Arches and Denali.
When comparing 7mm and 8mm flooring, don't look at thickness alone.
Compare:
- Wear layer
- Core construction
- Locking system
- Underlayment
- Warranty
- Plank size
- Price
- Intended application
8mm Vinyl Flooring vs 9mm Vinyl Flooring
Mega Flooring also offers a large 9mm luxury vinyl flooring collection.

8mm Vinyl Flooring vs 10mm Vinyl Flooring
For customers looking for an even thicker luxury vinyl plank, Mega Flooring also carries a dedicated 10mm Luxury Vinyl Plank collection, including Riche Flooring products.
Shop 10mm Luxury Vinyl Flooring
This allows customers to compare different thickness categories based on their individual project requirements.
Loose Lay Vinyl Flooring
Not every vinyl floor needs to be installed using a traditional click-lock system.
Loose lay vinyl flooring uses a different installation approach and can provide flexibility for certain residential and commercial applications.
Mega Flooring carries a dedicated 5mm Loose Lay Vinyl collection, currently featuring products from manufacturers including Toucan and other flooring brands.
Herringbone Vinyl Flooring
For customers looking for something different from traditional straight-plank installation, herringbone vinyl flooring provides a distinctive decorative pattern.

How Much 8mm Vinyl Flooring Do I Need?
To calculate the basic flooring area, multiply:
Length × Width = Square Feet
For example:
10 ft × 12 ft = 120 sq. ft.
Additional flooring should normally be purchased to account for cutting, waste, layout and installation requirements.
Rooms with closets, angles, hallways or complicated layouts may require additional material.
For larger projects, Mega Flooring can help you determine the amount of flooring required based on your measurements.
8mm Vinyl Flooring Installation
Installation requirements vary by product.
Many 8mm SPC and WPC products use floating click-lock installation systems.
Before installation:
- Prepare the subfloor.
- Check the subfloor for proper flatness.
- Address moisture concerns.
- Follow manufacturer preparation requirements.
- Determine whether underlayment is attached or required.
- Follow expansion requirements.
- Use the manufacturer's recommended installation method.
Always follow the installation instructions supplied with the specific flooring product.
