Calmwalk Splendid is a 7mm hybrid with an embossed in register (EIR) surface, which is the detail worth understanding: the texture you feel is aligned to the grain you see, rather than a generic texture pressed over the print, so it reads as timber underfoot as well as by eye. Nine colours cover the full Australian range — Queensland Spotted Gum and Weathered Spotted Gum, Coastal Blackbutt and Natural Blackbutt, plus oak tones from pale (Silver Light Oak, Natural Oak) through warm (Canadian Warm Oak) to dark and cool (Carbon Oak, Grey Shadow Oak). Boards are 1500mm long, each pack covers 1.646m2 and weighs 17.5kg, which is worth knowing if the floor has to be carried upstairs or into an apartment.
