What is the safest flooring option for fire safety?

Hi. I’m considering having new floors installed in my home. I’d like to know what the safest flooring option is when it comes to fire safety and to what extent that may depend on the quality of the product/brand? Thanks.

"Because it is a house & you probably don’t want it to look like a commercial office/ building.
So therefore we would recommend SPC vinyl flooring. Which is very similar to LVT, but better in quality.

It will look like laminate flooring, but last a lot longer & it will take longer to burn to incase of fire.

Thank you
