Real European oak, 3.2 mm thick, over our water-resistant AquaCore, in 1900 x 190 x 15 mm boards. Floating or glued down, ten colours, 30 year residential structural warranty.
Royal AquaCore Oak puts a real European oak veneer, 3.2 mm thick, on our AquaCore, a water-resistant core with a pine balancing layer. It handles ordinary household spills far better than a traditional timber floor while still being real oak you can see and feel.
The wide 1900 x 190 mm boards are 15 mm thick with a micro bevel and a matte, lightly to medium brushed finish. Each board is protected by 9 to 11 coats of Teknos Treffert parquet lacquer, including an anti-scratch sealer and a super-matt top coat. It can be floated over an underlay, strip glued or trowel glued, and is rated for both homes and commercial spaces.
It is backed by our 30 year residential structural warranty.
