Why Karndean?

Made from an exceptionally durable form of customised vinyl, Karndean flooring replicates all the beauty of natural flooring materials with none of the practical drawbacks. Whilst being virtually indistinguishable from the materials which inspire our designs, Karndean offers significant advantages in terms of design capability, maintenance and cost.

Realistic
The first thing about a Karndean floor that really grabs your attention is that it looks and feels just like the real thing. Whether you choose a wood, slate or marble effect floor, your friends will never know the difference. unless, of course, you want to really amaze them by telling them so!

Versatile
Karndean Flooring is suitable for any room in the home, and because of its practicality is particularly suitable in 'problem' areas. Even in kitchens and bathrooms, where products such as wood and laminates can be adversely affected by water spillages, Karndean is the ideal choice.

Warm
Much warmer to the touch than most natural flooring products, Karndean enables you to recreate the authentic look of a stone floor without ever having to experience the feeling of cold bare feet on a winter morning!

Quiet
Whereas products such as wood and laminates can be very noisy when walked upon, a Karndean floor is very quiet underfoot, making it the natural choice throughout the home

Durable
Unlike its natural counterparts, a Karndean floor will not splinter, chip or crack. Our products are extremely hard wearing; you can be safe in the knowledge that the very same flooring you have selected is installed throughout the world in some of the most demanding commercial environments*

Low maintenance
A Karndean floor really shows its value with the consideration of longer term maintenance issues. Sanding and polishing of a natural wood floor and repairs to a damaged slate, marble or terracotta floor can be inconvenient and costly. Karndean requires no maintenance outside of our simple 3 stage cleaning system

Hygienic
Karndean has a great deal of practical advantages over its natural counterparts. Unlike many other flooring options, Karndean will not harbour dirt and bacteria and therefore is especially suitable in the family environment

Design
With well over 100 standard products and a vast array of design components within our range, the design possibilities are endless. Individuality is the key word here; no floor need ever be replicated as individual designs are created to individual specifications.

Affordable
Taking the beauty and practicality of a Karndean floor into consideration, you may be surprised at just how affordable our products can be. In comparison to most natural floors and alternative design flooring brands, you will find that Karndean stands out as the affordable option.
