Moire Beige

In slab or hydronic heating suits a ceramic floor better than it suits timber, and Moire Beige is a straightforward pick for a heated bathroom or ensuite. The matt texture is deeply grained, which gives grip on a wet floor and keeps glare down, and it hides dust between cleans. Golden honey lands near Tasmanian oak, pale and warm rather than yellow. Five random faces is modest, so mix planks across cartons before you start, particularly over an open floor. A box holds five planks of 200 x 1000 mm, covering 1.00 m2 and weighing 20 kg.
