D26-27568

Nyatoh and keruing both land in this mid brown zone, and warm chestnut reads as either under house lighting. Four random faces means the repeat is manageable but real, so open three or four boxes together and mix the planks as you go. Bedrooms and the corridor joining them are the right size of job. The matt texture gives grip in a corridor and takes the shine off, so scuffs from shoes and chair legs stay quiet. Boxes hold five planks of 200 x 1200 mm, 1.20 m2 laid, 25 kg. Glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm will not cup the way a solid nyatoh strip floor does after two monsoons.

• Is D26-27568 suitable for a humid home?

  Yes. D26-27568 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 D26-27568 for a 3 x 4 m bedroom?

  A 3 x 4 m room is 12 m². With 10 percent extra for cutting, that is 11 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 D26-27568?
