About hybrid flooring
Hybrid flooring is a plank with a waterproof rigid core (SPC or WPC), a printed timber-look layer and a clear wear layer on top. It suits Melbourne homes well: spills, mopping and everyday family life do not damage the core, so it can go in living areas, kitchens and bedrooms. The ranges come in timber-look colours from light oak and grey to blackbutt and spotted gum, so there is a look for most styles.
The 47 ranges on this page are 2.5mm to 14mm thick, and the most common wear layer is 0.5mm. A thicker plank usually feels more solid underfoot, and a thicker wear layer gives more protection from scuffs and scratches. Check the figures on each range page before you choose, because they vary from range to range.
Hybrid planks are commonly installed as a floating floor with a click-lock system, which keeps installation quick and clean. A flat, well-prepared subfloor gives the best result.
