Quick Answer

What is Antique?

Antique is a rigid, wood-look SPC floor built around a greige washed color, with a resilient, home-grade wear layer for a durable, easy-care finish.

Is it waterproof?

Yes — 100% waterproof. Built for daily life: mop-and-go cleaning, occasional spills, and pet accidents wiped up promptly; clean standing water quickly. Indoor use only — outdoor installation is not approved.

How durable is it, and what traffic can it take?

Antique features a 12 mil wear layer — equivalent to 0.30 mm — ideal for everyday residential use across the busy areas of most homes, delivering solid everyday scratch and scuff resistance. That's one of the most common wear-layer thicknesses.

Will it hold up to daily life?

Office chair wheels, spike-heel point loads, and dragged furniture all concentrate force. Antique's 12 mil wear layer plus 5.3mm rigid SPC core manages this better than laminate — SPC resists crush-indent where laminate high-density fiberboard would dent permanently.

What does the plank surface look like?

Antique is smooth and orderly up close. Fine straight grain striping runs the length of each board, arced over by subtle cathedral crowns, with soft figure shifts from plank to plank. There are effectively no knots, so the surface looks clean and uniform, the kind of quiet backdrop that reads refined in a formal room. Its interest is in the even flow, not in rustic marks.

Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?

The 1mm EVA acoustic layer damps the hollow "click" sound characteristic of floating floors. Antique is quieter underfoot than LVT with a loose pad — both for the walker and for rooms below in multi-story homes.

Is it safe for indoor air?

Yes — Antique carries FloorScore certification, independently tested for low chemical emissions. That matters most for households with allergies, asthma, or young children.

Will this color work in my room?

In the warm afternoon daylight of this room, Antique reads bright and soft, its whitewashed greige staying light without turning cold. The warmth in the base keeps it friendly even as the light fades; in a dim or north-facing room it reads a slightly deeper, still-warm neutral. Its clean pale tone is a natural foil for saturated colors like the navy here and for dark wood-tones.

Overview

Antique reads especially clean: a soft greige with a gentle washed cast and no knots to speak of, just tight straight grain crossed by gentle cathedral figure. That even, quiet flow gives it a refined, almost formal calm. In the photographed living room it runs under a navy wood-framed sofa and a dark wood-tone media console, with a six-frame gallery wall above. In warm afternoon light the soft floor keeps the traditional furnishings feeling fresh rather than stuffy.

A soft washed greige with clean, knot-free grain, refined enough for a classic transitional room.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it look like installed in a real room?
In the photos Antique runs through a traditional-American living room with a transitional edge. A navy wood-framed sofa faces a dark wood-tone media console, striped pillows and framed architectural prints filling out a six-frame gallery wall. Warm cream and taupe walls and a potted plant keep it homey, while afternoon light warms the whole scene. The pale, knot-free floor keeps the deep navy and dark wood-tones from feeling heavy.
Will it match my cabinets?
Antique is one of the easiest floors to match to cabinetry. Its clean whitewashed greige stays crisp under white and off-white cabinets and gives dark wood-tone or navy-painted cabinets a bright base to sit on, much as it does with the dark wood-tone console here. Greige-painted cabinets blend almost seamlessly. With no knots or strong figure to compete, nearly any cabinet color reads clearly above it.
How does this color read in a windowless basement?
Warm afternoon light shows Antique at its brightest, but its warm base keeps it usable in low light too. A windowless basement will read it a touch deeper and warmer, never grey, especially under warm-white bulbs. Its clean, even surface means it looks intentional and refined even in an interior room with only lamplight.
Does this floor work with indoor plants?
The potted plant in this room hints at how neutral Antique really is. Its pale, warm, knot-free surface is a calm backdrop for any greenery, from leafy floor plants to small tabletop pots, with nothing in the floor to clash. A few plants add life to the traditional palette without pulling it in a new direction.
