Basque Oak

Code: RL26
The dark knots on the wood that inspired Basque Oak were artfully muted with a milky wash during our design process, helping to create a clean, neutral look. The design was inspired by wood from a centuries-old holm oak in Spain – a type of tree not commonly used as a source of timber.

With a hardwearing 30 mil wear layer, Basque Oak delivers excellent durability for commercial environments. It’s also available in a 7 mm thick rigid core format, featuring a 5G® locking mechanism, for faster installation: AKP-RL26
