Focus on: Karndean Flooring

Posted on: 31st March 2016

Choosing vinyl for your kitchen or bathroom floors doesn’t mean that your flooring needs to look artificial. Flooring manufacturers Karndean specialise in vinyl flooring ranges inspired by the natural materials of wood and stone. With a Karndean vinyl floor, you can have the beautiful wood- or stone-effect floor that perfectly complements your interior design scheme without the cost of installing and maintaining the real thing.


Karndean Flooring: A Nationwide Success Story

Over the last 40 years, Karndean Flooring has grown from operating out of the back of founder Mike Walker’s van into a nationally operating business. Mike’s original idea was that vinyl flooring need not be solely functional: it could be beautiful as well. Karndean Flooring still work to this principle, creating bespoke flooring inspired by the natural world. Their vinyl flooring designs are frequently mistaken for real stone and wood. 



Luxury Vinyl Flooring

Karndean vinyl flooring is truly a luxury. Every plank or tile is carefully designed with authenticity in mind. As the company explain on their website, their floors “don't look uniform or manufactured, but convey all the great characteristics of natural materials. Colours are defined with variable shades and tones, just as they are in natural wood or stone.” 


Customisable Flooring

Vinyl floors from Karndean are customisable. With their Designflooring range, decorative strips can be added to create a border or a grouting effect. These combinations mean that you can have a floor that is completely unique to you.


Whatever the size of your flooring project, Karndean Flooring will have the natural-looking product that will suit your home or business. We’re pleased to be able to stock their products and our fitters are fully trained in their installation. To check out the full range of floorings we stock, it’s worth popping into our showroom and taking a look.
