QLD-915982

A Queenslander with a long central hallway is a hard floor to tile, because any repeat runs straight down the middle of the house. QLD-915982 has ten random faces, enough that the grain keeps changing the whole way. The golden honey colour sits close to spotted gum and suits older weatherboard homes with white trim. The satin plain surface is smooth, mops in a single pass, and does show dust between cleans. Planks measure 150 x 900 mm, eight to a box, 1.08 m2 of coverage at 22 kg. Glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm, for indoor use.
