NRC-307

Warm chestnut here leans towards meranti, a mid brown with a quiet grain that does not fight bookshelves or a desk. That makes it an easy floor for a study or a converted guest room on the first storey. Six random faces mean the pattern does not double back on itself in a small room, which is where a repeat is easiest to spot. The satin texture is lightly textured, feels like sanded board, and takes chair castors without scuffing. Coverage runs 1.08 m2 per box, 8 planks of 150 x 900 mm, 22 kg to carry up the stairs. Glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm cuts cleanly on site.

• Does NRC-307 cope with Malaysian humidity?

  Yes. NRC-307 is glazed ceramic with 6 to 8 percent water absorption, so humid months do not make it swell, cup or warp the way timber and laminate can.

• How many boxes of NRC-307 for a 3 x 3 m bedroom?

  A 3 x 3 m room is 9 m². With 10 percent extra for cutting, that is 10 boxes, since each box of 8 planks (15 x 90 cm) covers 1.08 m² and weighs about 22 kg.

• Which rooms in a condo or landed house suit NRC-307?

  NRC-307 works on floors and walls in bedrooms, living areas, hallways and home offices. It is rated for interior use.

• How do I clean NRC-307?

  Sweep, then mop with a mild floor cleaner. The glazed satin textured face needs no oiling, sanding or polish.
