Oaklore Nero

Dark grey is a strong choice and Oaklore Nero commits to it, sitting closest to weathered hardwood that has silvered right down. It works better in a living area with plenty of daylight than in a closed room. The rustic texture is what makes a dark floor practical, since it holds less shine and does not report every footprint the way a smooth dark tile does. Six random faces calls for mixing boxes as you lay. The 200 x 1400 mm plank leaves fewer joints than the 1200 mm size across the same room. Each box has 4 pieces, 1.12 m2 of coverage, 24 kg.

• Will Oaklore Nero swell in a humid climate?

  No. Oaklore Nero 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 Nero for a 4 x 5 m living room?

  A 4 x 5 m room is 20 m². With 10 percent extra for cutting, that is 20 boxes, since each box of 4 planks (20 x 140 cm) covers 1.12 m² and weighs about 24 kg.

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

  Oaklore Nero works on floors and walls in family halls, bedrooms, shoplots and offices. It is rated for interior use.

• How do I clean Oaklore Nero?

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