Frequently Asked Questions about Interface Textured Woodgrains LVT
- What’s the difference between Natural Woodgrains and Textured Woodgrains LVT?
-
Both ranges offer realistic wood looks. The primary difference lies in the surface finish and style focus. Natural Woodgrains tend to replicate smoother, more classic wood finishes, while Textured Woodgrains emphasize rustic, distressed, or antique appearances with a more pronounced surface texture that you can often feel as well as see. Textured Woodgrains also boast a slightly higher R10 slip rating compared to the R9 of Natural Woodgrains.
- Is the textured surface harder to clean?
-
While the surface has more texture than a smooth LVT, it’s still protected by the durable, non-porous Ceramorâ„¢ coating. Standard cleaning methods like sweeping, vacuuming, and damp mopping with a neutral cleaner are effective. The texture is generally not deep enough to trap significant amounts of dirt with regular maintenance.
- Does the R10 slip rating make a big difference?
-
An R10 rating indicates a higher level of slip resistance compared to R9 under specific test conditions (DIN 51130 ramp test). While both offer good slip resistance for general use, R10 provides an extra margin of safety, which can be particularly beneficial in commercial environments, entrance areas, or anywhere where occasional spills might occur.
- Can I get samples of Interface Textured Woodgrains LVT?
-
Yes, Interface typically provides samples of their flooring products, including the Textured Woodgrains LVT range. Obtaining samples is highly recommended to see and feel the texture, colour, and quality firsthand before making a final decision. Please inquire about sample availability.
- Is this LVT suitable for installation over existing flooring?
-
Generally, gluedown LVT like Interface Textured Woodgrains requires installation directly onto a properly prepared, smooth, and structurally sound subfloor (e.g., concrete or plywood). Installing over existing flooring is usually not recommended as it can compromise the installation quality and performance. Always follow Interface’s specific subfloor preparation guidelines.
