Collection: Herringbone Gluedown
SOFT OAK is a light, slightly subdued oak with a greyish, pastel tone. Small knots and a gentle color change from board to board break the uniformity, thanks to which the herringbone does not look artificial, but like a floor made of real boards. These are vinyl panels for Scandinavian-style interiors and wherever lightness is important.
620 × 135 mm planks create a distinctive and at the same time calm pattern. Gluedown are panels designed for permanent bonding to the substrate: thin, only 2,5 mm thick, with a backing layer. Bonding creates a stable, quiet floor with high resistance to loads, and a full, permanent connection to the floor additionally silences footsteps. The surface is protected by a 0,50 mm wear layer with a UV coating, and the 23/33/42 class means it is intended for intensive use in residential, commercial and industrial spaces. Delicately beveled edges (micro-bevel) highlight each plank. SOFT OAK is 100% waterproof (water proof), so it endures well in the kitchen and bathroom, and the permanent connection to the ground additionally stabilizes the whole. It can be laid on floor heating. The noticeable wood grain structure gives the light surface authenticity. The floor is easy to clean (easy to clean), resistant to animal claws (animal proof), also designed for families with children (child proof) and made with care for the environment (eco-friendly), with the highest VOC emission class A+.
Gluedown panels are installed exclusively using the glued method: they are permanently glued to the substrate, arranging a herringbone pattern from the center of the room, not from the corner. Installation requires a complete system of construction chemicals (primer, glue, possibly leveling compound), matched to the type, condition and humidity of the substrate; the glue is applied with a notched trowel (A1 or A2, according to the glue manufacturer’s recommendations). Before installation, the panels require 48-hour acclimatization at a temperature of 18-25°C, and the substrate must be dry, even, stable and clean – unevenness above 3 mm per 2 m must be removed. Maintain expansion joints (min. 5 mm for walls, min. 8 mm for underfloor heating). Immediately after laying, the floor is pressed down with a roller weighing at least 50 kg, and repeat the operation after half an hour. The floor can be accessed after 24 hours and furniture can be placed after 48 hours; do not wet wash it for the first 24 hours. The floor is compatible with underfloor heating and cooling.
The full manual contains a detailed description of the preparation of the substrate and assembly chemicals, step-by-step installation of glued panels, finishing of thresholds and pipes, and the rules of floor care. We encourage you to download and read the entire manual before starting work – incorrect installation or poor preparation of the substrate may result in loss of warranty.
