KronoSwiss Majestic in Tamins Oak is a classic choice. These boards are 10mm thick, with a wide plank size of 1845 x 244mm, creating a bold, spacious look in any room. With its synchronised structure, this floor doesn’t just look like real wood — it feels like it too. The 5G+ locking system makes installation smooth and secure, while AC5 | Class 33 durability means it can handle high foot traffic in both homes and light commercial spaces. It’s also water-resistant for 24 hours, suitable for underfloor heating, and comes with a 30-year domestic and 2-year commercial warranty.
If your home sees its fair share of action — pets, kids, or just a fast-paced lifestyle — KronoSwiss Authentic Aquastop is a smart, stylish solution. These ultra-durable boards are 14mm thick, offering a solid underfoot feel and premium performance. Designed with Aquastop Technology, this range is water-resistant for life — ideal for kitchens, hallways, and anywhere spills happen. The AC5 | Class 33 rating ensures it stands up to heavy wear, while finishes like Natural Oak and Beach bring warm, authentic texture to your space. It also fits over underfloor heating and is backed by a 35-year domestic and 5-year commercial warranty.
Want the feel of real timber floors without the upkeep? KronoSwiss Origin Aquastop offers just that — a 14mm thick board packed with premium touches. Built with the same Aquastop Technology, it resists moisture for life, so it’s great for active homes or commercial interiors. Where Origin really shines is its extra-lifelike texture and bold wood visuals, available in distinctive finishes like Beach, Forest, and Moon. With an AC5 rating, it handles heavy traffic with ease while delivering a high-end aesthetic. Easy to install and designed for long-term performance, this floor combines luxury, practicality, and value.
If you’re keeping an eye on the budget but still want great-looking and durable floors, then let us introduce you to Forester 12mm Laminate Wood Flooring. Don’t let the price fool you – this stuff is tough! It’s got an AC5 wear rating, which means it can handle a serious amount of foot traffic. The Barrow Oak and Mourne Oak finishes are really popular, bringing that natural wood beauty into your home without breaking the bank. Plus, if you’ve got underfloor heating, these are compatible, which is a real bonus for those chilly Irish mornings! And with a 25-year domestic warranty, you know you’re getting floors that are built to last.
For those of you who want beautiful new floors quickly and with minimal fuss, the Kronopol King Floor Range is a fantastic option. These 12mm boards come with an “express click system,” making installation super speedy. They also come in a wide array of colours and finishes, like Oak Urban and Oak Capricorn, so you can easily find a style that matches your taste, whether you’re after something modern and sleek or a bit more traditional. And just because it’s quick to fit doesn’t mean it’s not tough – it’s got that AC5 durability rating, so it’s great for both homes and businesses. Plus, with a 30-year warranty backing it up, you can relax knowing your floors are in it for the long haul.

Good question! Laminate, like the KronoSwiss and Forester options, is made from synthetic stuff designed to look like real wood. It’s generally tougher, more water-resistant, and easier to care for than solid wood. Real wood is, well, real wood! It’s got that natural, timeless beauty but usually needs a bit more TLC.
