Oaklore Beige

Households with elderly parents ask about grip before they ask about colour. Oaklore Beige answers that with a rustic texture, a deep grain relief you can feel, which gives more grip underfoot than a smooth face near the wet kitchen. It also throws no glare, so a hall lit by an afternoon window does not turn into a sheet of light. The colour is a golden honey in the chengal range, warm without going orange. Six random faces suits rooms and short runs, so mix boxes for anything longer. Five planks of 200 x 1000 mm per box cover 1.00 m2 and weigh 20 kg.

• Will Oaklore Beige swell in a humid climate?

  No. Oaklore Beige 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 Oaklore Beige for a 5 x 6 m living and dining area?

  A 5 x 6 m room is 30 m². With 10 percent extra for cutting, that is 33 boxes, since each box of 5 planks (20 x 100 cm) covers 1.00 m² and weighs about 20 kg.

• Which rooms in a condo or landed house suit Oaklore Beige?

  Oaklore Beige works on floors and walls in master bedrooms, living rooms, cafes and feature walls. It is rated for interior use.

• What upkeep does Oaklore Beige need?

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