D9-1510

White here is a limewashed oak white, pale with the grain still showing through rather than a flat painted panel. That makes it useful in a service apartment or a small condominium unit where the hall is tight and a dark floor would shrink it further. The satin texture surface is lightly grained and forgiving with dust. Nine random faces means even a pale floor, where repeats stand out most, stays varied across the whole unit. Be aware that light floors show hair and grit sooner than mid browns do. A box gives you 8 planks of 150 x 900 mm, 1.08 m2 of coverage, at 22 kg.
