The specifications
The details, before you decide.
Thickness
5mm +1.5mm underlay
The 5 mm board has 1.5 mm of attached underlay, making 6.5 mm overall. The board gives a firm base; the underlay adds comfort underfoot and helps soften footstep noise. Check the acoustic rating for its tested sound performance.
Plank size
1540x182mm
Each plank is 154 cm long and 18.2 cm wide. Longer, wider planks mean fewer joins across the room. Mark these measurements on your floor to picture the layout.
Coverage per box
2.24 m²
This is the floor area that one full box covers. One square metre is a square 1 metre long and 1 metre wide. Allow extra for cuts, then round up to whole boxes. The calculator above does this for you.
Joining system
Click System
The edges lock together to form one joined floor. This makes fitting boards simpler and keeps the joins lined up. Leave the edge gaps in the installation guide so the floor has room to move.
Wear layer
0.5mm
The clear wear layer protects the timber-look design from everyday foot traffic. At 0.5 mm, it is a durable choice for busy homes. It helps prevent the pattern wearing away; felt pads still help prevent scratches.
Surface treatment
UV Coating
This protective coating is hardened with UV light at the factory. It helps protect against daily wear and makes routine cleaning easier. Follow the care guide when choosing cleaners.
Profile
4-Sided Micro Bevel
Each board has a tiny sloped edge. A 4-sided micro bevel puts this edge on all four sides, making a fine outline around each plank once laid.
Package details
Box size: 2.243m2 / 8 Boards Weight: 23kg
This lists what comes in one box, such as the number of boards and the area they cover. Where a weight is shown, it is useful for planning pickup, carrying and storage. Left and right boards, when listed, form a matching pattern.
Acoustic rating
AAAC: 4 Star | L'nT,w: 47 | FIIC: 60
Tested at 4 stars for footstep noise, useful when comparing floors for upstairs rooms. For an apartment, send the acoustic report to your body corporate before buying. Check its required rating and the specified underlay.
Slip rating
P3
P3 gives more tested wet grip than P2, useful when comparing floors for kitchens, hallways and living areas. Wipe up spills promptly. Stairs and wet areas still need the right product and installation.
Fire resistance
CHF Value 10.7kW/m2
This shows how the floor performed in a fire test. A higher CHF number means a better result in that test. It does not mean the floor cannot burn. Your builder can check the test report for your project.
Product type
SPC Hybrid Flooring
SPC means Stone Plastic Composite: a firm limestone-and-plastic core with a timber-look surface. Our SPC hybrid range is silica-free. Follow the cutting guide and control dust during installation.
Style
Plank
Planks are long boards laid in rows. Think about whether you want those rows to run along or across the room. A sample helps you check the colour and surface at home.
We will work quickly to ship your order as soon as possible. Once your order has shipped, you will receive an email with further information. Delivery times vary depending on your location.
Manufacturing
Our products are manufactured both locally and globally. We carefully select our manufacturing partners to ensure our products are high quality and a fair value.
Every board comes with a 1.5mm IXPE underlay already attached, so the floor feels softer and sounds quieter than a bare click floor. In independent acoustic testing the 6.5mm range rated AAAC 4 star (L’nT,w 47), a solid result for family homes and many apartments.
A realistic timber look
A high-definition timber print sits under a 0.5mm wear layer, and a four-sided micro bevel makes each join read like a real board. The range comes in 12 colours, from Pale Sand to Charcoal.
“My neighbour is a carpenter and asked me what type of wood my new floors were! I told him it was hybrid and he couldn’t believe it. I’m seriously impressed.”Amber Wislton
Easy to lay yourself
The boards click together as a floating floor, with no glue and no separate underlay to buy. At 1540 x 182mm they’re light and easy to handle for a first DIY job. Pro tip: make sure your subfloor is flat before you start, it makes all the difference. See the install guide.
Timber-look surface
A printed timber-look decor layer sits over the rigid SPC core. Compare samples to choose the colour and surface detail for your rooms.
Product care and warranty
Review the product installation, maintenance and warranty documents before ordering. Correct preparation, installation and care are conditions to check for your project.
Product safety information
The linked safety data sheet reports zero respirable silica dust content. Refer to the current SDS under Product Downloads for the product’s safety and handling information.
Four layers do the work, top to bottom. A 0.5mm wear layer takes the scuffs and scratches. The decor layer carries the timber print. The 5mm SPC core is dense stone polymer composite that won’t swell when it gets wet. And the 1.5mm IXPE underlay comes attached for comfort and sound.
Figures come from each range’s independent test reports, listed under Product Downloads on every product page.
6.5mm SPC hybrid flooring buying guide
6.5mm hybrid is a 5mm stone polymer composite (SPC) core with a 1.5mm IXPE underlay already attached, finished with a timber print and a 0.5mm wear layer. It clicks together as a floating floor, so it goes down fast over most flat subfloors, and it’s the lightest, most affordable board in our hybrid flooring range.
Where it works best
Select rooms that meet this product’s installation, moisture and warranty conditions. The warranty excludes installations subject to potential water immersion, including bathrooms and areas with floor drains. Its AAAC 4 star (L’nT,w 47) result describes the tested assembly; apartment and townhouse use still depends on the building’s acoustic requirements and approval. Check these conditions before choosing flooring for a kitchen or laundry.
Lay it over concrete, timber or most existing tiles, as long as the subfloor is clean, dry and flat. Leave an expansion gap at the walls and cover it with matching trims. Start with our subfloor prep guide, then the install guide. Laying over tiles? See hybrid over tiles.
Finishing trims
Every colour in the range has matching trims, so the edges look as good as the floor: scotia for skirting lines, stair nosing for steps, and T-mouldings and reducers for doorways. Browse all flooring accessories.
Why are there different thicknesses of hybrid flooring?
Thickness mostly changes three things: how quiet the floor is, how solid it feels and what it costs. Thicker boards usually test quieter, feel firmer underfoot and come in longer, wider planks that read more like real timber. Our 6.5mm range is the lighter, more affordable option, and for most households the day-to-day difference is small. Compare it with our 9.5mm hybrid or read whether thickness matters.
Is 6.5mm hybrid flooring good for apartments and townhouses?
Usually, yes. In independent testing the 6.5mm range rated AAAC 4 star (L’nT,w 47, FIIC 60), which suits many strata buildings. Every building sets its own rules, so check your by-laws or send us your building’s requirements and we’ll help you check. The full acoustic report is under Product Downloads above, and our apartment acoustics guide explains the ratings.
Can I install this flooring myself?
Yes. The boards click together as a floating floor, so there’s no glue and no separate underlay to lay. If you’re comfortable with basic tools, follow our step-by-step install guide. Not sure it’s a job for you? See which floors suit DIY, or ask about our installation partner.
Do I still need underlay?
These boards already have a 1.5mm IXPE underlay attached. Do not add another underlay unless the product installation guide expressly permits the proposed system. Check any underlay or moisture-control layer against the guide, your subfloor and your building’s requirements before installation. Read our underlay guide for the questions to check.
What does the safety data sheet say about silica?
The linked safety data sheet reports zero respirable silica dust content. Refer to the current SDS under Product Downloads for the product’s safety and handling information.
Can I use hybrid flooring in kitchens, laundries and bathrooms?
The linked product warranty excludes installations subject to potential water immersion, including bathrooms and areas with floor drains. A water-resistant core does not remove these room-use restrictions. Check the installation guide, care instructions and warranty under Product Downloads before choosing this floor for a kitchen, laundry or another room.
What subfloor do I need?
A clean, dry, flat subfloor. Concrete, timber and most existing tiles all work, but dips or humps need fixing first so the boards lock together properly and don’t move over time. Our subfloor prep guide covers what to check.
Can I lay it over existing tiles?
In most cases, yes. Hybrid floats over tiles as long as they’re flat, sound and firmly stuck down, which saves the cost and mess of ripping them up. Here’s how to lay hybrid over tiles.
Yes. It’s scratch resistant, 100% water resistant and easy to clean, so claws and the odd accident are no drama as long as spills are wiped up reasonably quickly. More in can pets damage hybrid flooring, or see our pet friendly floors.
How do I clean and maintain hybrid flooring?
Sweep or vacuum regularly, then damp mop with a pH-neutral cleaner. Skip steam mops, oil-based polishes and harsh chemicals. Our cleaning guide has the full routine.
Each box covers 2.24 m². Measure each room, add 10% for cuts, then divide by 2.24 and round up. Our flooring calculator does the maths, and the measurement guide shows how to measure awkward rooms.
Can I see a sample first?
Yes, and we recommend it. Colours look different in your own light, so order a sample before you buy. You can also call us on 0431 311 633 or get a quote for your whole project.
Can this hybrid floor be used with underfloor heating?
No. The linked hybrid installation guide states that this flooring is not compatible with any floor heating system and that floor heating may void the product warranty. Check the current product documents before ordering for a heated subfloor.
