D19-20905

For a ground floor bedroom given over to an elderly parent, the floor surface matters more than the colour does. D19-20905 uses the deep matt texture, the best grip on offer, and it stays sure underfoot for someone walking barefoot or with a stick. Warm chestnut keeps the room looking warm rather than clinical. Five random faces is a moderate count and enough for a single room, but open two boxes and alternate the planks anyway. The same reasoning holds in a guest room or a prayer room. Each box has five planks at 200 x 1200 mm, covering 1.20 m2 and weighing about 25 kg.

• Will D19-20905 swell in a humid climate?

  No. D19-20905 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 D19-20905 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 28 boxes, since each box of 5 planks (20 x 120 cm) covers 1.20 m² and weighs about 25 kg.

• Which rooms in a condo or landed house suit D19-20905?

  D19-20905 works on floors and walls in master bedrooms, living rooms, cafes and feature walls. It is rated for interior use.

• What upkeep does D19-20905 need?

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