First is the product type—PVC plastic flooring with different structures has significant price differences. For example, homogeneous full-through PVC flooring (such as the Senyan Series by Dalongju) usually costs 120-200 yuan per square meter. This is because its material is consistent from surface to core, offering high wear resistance and refinishing capability. In contrast, composite PVC flooring (with a multi-layer structure) is relatively simpler in production process, so its price is mostly 50-100 yuan per square meter, making it suitable for scenarios with limited budgets. Additionally, products with special functions (e.g., antibacterial, fire-retardant, or anti-static) are 20%-30% more expensive than basic models.

Second is brand and quality. First-tier brands like Dalongju subject their products to strict testing, complying with standards such as EN 469 and China Green Building Materials. With guaranteed environmental friendliness and durability, their products are approximately 30% more expensive than those from small manufacturers. Although low-quality PVC flooring can be as cheap as 30-50 yuan per square meter, it may have issues like excessive formaldehyde emissions and easy cracking, which makes it uneconomical in the long run.

Third is installation and services. If door-to-door measurement, professional installation, and after-sales warranty are included, the overall cost will increase by 20-50 yuan per square meter. However, the installation services provided by high-quality brands can ensure the flooring is flat and joints are tight, reducing problems such as warping and hollowing later on. It is recommended to prioritize packages that include installation services.

In summary, when purchasing PVC plastic flooring, it is advisable to select branded products within the price range of 80-150 yuan per square meter based on the usage scenario (residential/commercial) and specific needs, balancing cost-effectiveness and quality.
