Oaklore Grigio

Rustic texture carries a deep grain relief, and on Oaklore Grigio it does real work. Underfoot it grips when wet, throws no glare back from a ceiling light, and hides the fine dust that settles in every Malaysian house. The colour is a natural clear stain, pale and unvarnished looking, closer to a sanded board than anything polished. Six random faces spread the grain across a wet kitchen or a downstairs bathroom without a repeat. The rustic texture does hold grime a little more than a smooth face, so a stiff brush beats a mop. Each box holds 8 planks at 150 x 900 mm, 1.08 m2, 22 kg.

• Is Oaklore Grigio suitable for a humid home?
