Luvanto Adhesives

What are Luvanto adhesives used for?

Luvanto adhesives are designed for use with Luvanto’s glue down luxury vinyl flooring ranges. These high quality glues provide a secure and long lasting bond between the LVT planks or tiles and the subfloor. They’re essential for dry back installations, where each tile is glued directly to a level surface. The adhesives ensure that the flooring stays firmly in place, even in areas with high footfall or changes in temperature. Whether you’re working in a busy kitchen or a quiet bedroom, using the correct adhesive helps achieve a smooth, stable finish that looks good and performs well.

Can Luvanto adhesives be used in bathrooms and kitchens?

Yes. One of the key advantages of Luvanto LVT flooring is that it’s water-resistant, making it ideal for moisture-prone areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and utility rooms. Luvanto adhesives are developed to support this feature, offering strong hold even in humid environments. It’s important to make sure the subfloor is dry, clean, and level before applying the adhesive. Once installed and fully cured, the adhesive helps protect against lifting or bubbling, giving a clean, seamless surface that’s easy to maintain and comfortable underfoot.

What’s the difference between click-fit and glue-down LVT?

LVT that requires click installation, sometimes known as ‘loose lay’ or ‘floating’ flooring, clicks together over underlay without adhesive. It’s often chosen for its quick and easy installation. Glue down LVT, on the other hand, is bonded directly to the floor using specialist adhesive. This method is more permanent and can offer a more solid, quieter feel underfoot. Glue down LVT is also better for awkward spaces or rooms with frequent temperature changes, as it’s less prone to expansion or movement. Luvanto adhesives are specifically made for glue down applications and provide the strong, lasting grip needed for this type of fitting.

How long does Luvanto adhesive take to dry?

Drying times can vary depending on the specific product and room conditions, but most Luvanto adhesives need around 24 hours to fully cure. Some may offer a shorter working time, so it’s important to follow the product instructions closely. Trying to walk on the flooring too early can cause tiles to shift or the bond to weaken, so it’s best to allow the full drying time before placing furniture or heavy items on the surface. Patience at this stage helps ensure your floor looks its best and lasts as long as it should.

Why choose Luvanto adhesives?

Luvanto adhesives are carefully developed to work in perfect harmony with Luvanto glue down flooring, giving users confidence in both fit and finish. They support professional results even in DIY projects, providing reliable hold and helping to maintain the durability and water resistance of the LVT itself. For anyone choosing Luvanto flooring for its stylish look and long term performance, the right adhesive is the key to making it all come together.
