About Paradigm Flooring
Paradigm Flooring — Waterproof SPC & WPC Vinyl Plank Flooring
Paradigm Flooring builds 100% waterproof, rigid-core vinyl plank across seven collections that span both SPC (stone polymer core) and WPC (wood-plastic composite) construction — from the value-priced Performer line through the flagship Conquest to the premium 30-mil Private Reserve. Every plank is FloorScore certified for indoor air quality (the Odyssey line adds GREENGUARD Gold), pairs a wood-look printed surface with a factory-attached pad, and carries a Lifetime Residential warranty. Kapriz Hardwood Floors offers 160 Paradigm colors — pale blondes and greiges through warm browns and near-black — available to order through our Santa Clara showroom.
The Paradigm Flooring collections
Conquest 20MIL — 8mm SPC
The flagship SPC line: a 6.5mm rigid stone core with a 1.5mm attached pad (8mm total), a 20-mil commercial wear layer, and wide 9″ × 72″ planks with a painted-bevel edge. Built for whole-home durability. 42 colors.
Insignia 20MIL — 8mm WPC
A warmer, quieter WPC floor: a 7mm wood-plastic composite core with a 1mm IXPE pad (8mm total), 20-mil wear, 9″ × 60″ planks, Unilin Uniclic locking, and a Pet Stain warranty. 39 colors.
Odyssey 20MIL — 7mm WPC
The green-certified WPC line: a 6mm composite core with a 1mm IXPE pad (7mm total), 20-mil wear, and 9″ × 72″ planks — and the only Paradigm collection that adds GREENGUARD Gold to its FloorScore certification. 14 colors.
Private Reserve 30MIL — 12mm WPC
Paradigm’s newest premium tier: a thick 12mm WPC plank with a 30-mil wear layer, a 2mm IXPE pad, and wide 9″ × 72″ boards — the most robust surface in the range, for demanding rooms. 10 colors.
Performer PLUS — 6mm SPC
The pet-focused SPC line: a 6mm-total SPC plank (4.5mm stone core) with MaaXguard surface technology and 9″ × 60″ planks, adding both a Pet Scratch and Pet Stain warranty for homes with dogs and cats. 27 colors.
Performer 20MIL — 5.3mm SPC
The mid-tier SPC floor: the 5.3mm stone-core Performer platform upgraded to a 20-mil wear layer and 9″ × 60″ planks, with a Pet Stain warranty. A value pick that still handles traffic. 14 colors.
Performer 12MIL — 5.3mm SPC
The entry tier: a 5.3mm SPC plank with a 12-mil residential wear layer, 7″ × 60″ boards, and a Pet Stain warranty — the value way into a waterproof rigid-core floor. 14 colors.
What makes Paradigm different
- Two rigid-core platforms, one brand. Paradigm offers both dense SPC (stone polymer core) for maximum stability and warmer, quieter WPC (wood-plastic composite) — so you can match the floor to the room instead of settling for one construction.
- Wear layers from 12 to 30 mil. The commercial-grade wear layer scales with the tier — 12-mil for light residential rooms up to the 30-mil Private Reserve for the hardest-used spaces — so you pay for the durability the room actually needs.
- Factory-attached pad on every plank. Each floor ships with its own IXPE or EVA pad already bonded to the board, which quiets footfall and speeds installation. (Adding a second pad underneath can void the warranty — the attached pad is enough.)
- FloorScore certified, GREENGUARD Gold on Odyssey. Every Paradigm plank is FloorScore certified for low-VOC indoor air quality; the Odyssey line adds GREENGUARD Gold — meaningful in bedrooms, nurseries, and homes with kids or pets.
- Pet warranties built in. Insignia and all three Performer lines carry a Pet Stain warranty (dog and cat accidents); Performer PLUS adds a Pet Scratch warranty on top.
- Lifetime Residential warranty, below-grade rated. Every collection is warranted for the life of the home and rated for above-, on-, and below-grade floating installation — including basements.
Best uses for Paradigm flooring
- Kitchens & bathrooms — 100% waterproof cores mean spills, mopping, and splashes never reach a swelling wood layer.
- Basements & below-grade rooms — rated for below-grade floating installation, so the dimensional stability of a rigid core suits finished basements.
- Homes with pets & heavy traffic — thick wear layers plus the Pet Stain (and, on Performer PLUS, Pet Scratch) warranties stand up to claws and accidents.
- Rentals & flips — waterproof, scratch-resistant, and fast to click-install, so turnover damage stays low and install time stays short.
- Open-plan whole-home — 160 colors across seven collections let you carry one look wall-to-wall, kitchen to bedroom.
Choosing the right Paradigm floor
Start with the room, then the tier: a busy kitchen or a basement wants a thicker wear layer (20 or 30 mil — Conquest, Insignia, Odyssey, or Private Reserve), while a quiet bedroom or a rental is well served by the value Performer lines. Choose SPC (Conquest, Performer) when you want the hardest, most dent-resistant core, and WPC (Insignia, Odyssey, Private Reserve) when you want a slightly warmer, softer, quieter step. For color, lighter blondes and greiges open up smaller or low-light rooms while deeper browns ground larger spaces — but printed grain reads differently under your own lighting, so order a sample and let our Santa Clara showroom team confirm the dye lot before you buy.
