Nordikka Living
Nordikka Living is an entry-level glue-down luxury vinyl flooring collection, designed to bring clean Scandinavian-inspired style into modern homes. At 2.0mm thick with a 0.3mm wear layer, it is built for lighter residential use — delivering realistic wood-effect finishes and a low-maintenance surface in bedrooms, living rooms, and spaces where design leads over heavy traffic demands.
As part of the wider Nordikka flooring range, Nordikka Living is a practical starting point for homeowners who want the look of natural wood without the maintenance.

Nordikka Living is the entry point into the Nordikka glue-down LVT range, designed for homeowners who want a clean, contemporary wood-effect floor in lighter-use spaces. The collection focuses on versatile Scandinavian-inspired tones — natural, understated finishes that sit well in both modern and more traditional interiors without being tied to short-term trends.
At 2.0mm thick with a 0.3mm wear layer, Nordikka Living is suited to rooms that see moderate foot traffic. If you need a floor for a kitchen, hallway or busy family space, consider stepping up to Nordikka Original, which offers a 2.5mm thickness and 0.55mm wear layer for heavier use.
What Makes Nordikka Living a Glue-Down Floor?
Nordikka Living is a dryback (glue-down) LVT product, meaning it is permanently bonded to the subfloor using adhesive. This creates a stable, secure and seamless result that is particularly well suited to larger open-plan rooms and spaces where a tailored, high-quality finish matters.
Compared to floating or click systems, glue-down flooring sits closer to the subfloor, feels more solid underfoot, and eliminates any movement or flex that can be associated with click products. For homeowners who want a floor that feels like part of the room rather than something installed on top of it, glue-down is often the preferred method. Professional installation is recommended to achieve the best result.
Why Choose Nordikka Living?
- Wood-effect styling: Realistic Scandinavian-inspired oak tones that bring warmth to lighter-use rooms without the cost or maintenance of real timber.
- Low maintenance: Regular sweeping and occasional damp mopping is all it takes — no sanding, sealing or refinishing required.
- Waterproof: Fully waterproof construction means it outperforms laminate and real wood in any room where moisture is present.
- Seamless finish: Glue-down installation creates a stable, permanently bonded surface across the full floor area.
- Accessible price point: The entry-level Nordikka specification delivers a clean, design-led look at an honest price.
Where is Nordikka Living Best Used?
With a 0.3mm wear layer, Nordikka Living is ideally suited to lighter residential environments — bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms and studies where foot traffic is moderate and the floor does not face particularly demanding day-to-day use.
It is also suitable for certain hallways and open-plan spaces, though for high-traffic areas, kitchens or homes with pets and children, Nordikka Original (0.55mm wear layer) or Nordikka Select (0.55mm, dual format) would be a stronger long-term choice.
Its waterproof properties mean it can be used in bathrooms and utility rooms where a wood-effect floor is desired, provided the subfloor is properly prepared.
Nordikka Living and Interior Design
Nordikka Living suits homes where the goal is calm, balanced styling. The collection’s Scandinavian influence means the emphasis is on natural tones and clean finishes — lighter shades open a room up and make it feel brighter, while slightly richer tones add warmth and depth.
Because the range is restrained in its design, it is also easy to live with over time. Nordikka Living works well with a wide range of furniture styles and does not depend on short-term trends to feel current.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Nordikka Living flooring completely waterproof?
Yes, Nordikka Living is a luxury vinyl tile that is 100% waterproof. Unlike laminate or real wood, it will not swell or warp when exposed to moisture, making it safe for use in kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms.
Can I install Nordikka Living over my existing underfloor heating?
Absolutely. Nordikka Living is compatible with underfloor heating systems. You must ensure the floor surface temperature does not exceed 27°C and follow the specific installation guidelines regarding adhesive types.
What is the difference between the Living collection and the Original collection?
The primary difference lies in the thickness and the wear layer. The Living collection typically features a 2.0mm thickness and a 0.3mm wear layer, making it ideal for standard residential use. The Original collection offers a thicker 2.5mm plank and a 0.55mm wear layer for even greater durability.
How do I clean and maintain my Nordikka floor?
Maintenance is very easy. Regular sweeping or vacuuming with a soft brush attachment is usually enough. For a deeper clean, use a damp mop with a pH-neutral floor cleaner. Avoid using steam mops or harsh abrasive chemicals.
Does Nordikka Living require professional installation?
Because Nordikka Living is a dryback (glue-down) LVT, it requires a perfectly smooth and level subfloor. We strongly recommend professional installation to ensure the subfloor is properly prepared and the planks are bonded correctly for a lifetime finish.
