Delivering award-winning style and performance since 2011, the Karndean Designflooring LooseLay Collection has been updated with 10 stylish new stone- and wood-inspired designs, giving designers more than 40 to choose from in all. In many ways, Karndean LooseLay brings together the best attributes of gluedown and rigid core luxury vinyl. It combines the ability to create custom patterns and layouts, like gluedown, with the fast, easy installation of a click-lock floating format, as LooseLay does not require full adhesive spread to the subfloor.
The proven reliability and performance of Karndean LooseLay allows the luxury vinyl supplier to consistently invest in development of new stone- and wood-inspired designs. The collection has grown to more than 40 visuals in all, among the industry’s largest for loose lay.
Beyond the beauty of a particular stone or wood visual in the collection, homeowners can further elevate living spaces by using LooseLay to create custom layouts, as planks and tiles can be easily cut and pieced together in eye-catching patterns, to add borders or to define zoning around permanent fixtures such as a kitchen island.
While style and color are often top priorities for homeowners, Ross also emphasizes the proven performance of Karndean LooseLay. At 4.5 mm thick, the floor features the supplier’s K-Wave frictiongrip backing.
LooseLay does not require full adhesive spread to the subfloor, offering potential cost-savings for both retailers and homeowners. The distinctive backing also contributes to comfort underfoot and noise reduction between floors in multi-level homes.
Another key performance feature is proprietary SureFit technology in the stability layer of Karndean LooseLay. SureFit gives planks and tiles enhanced dimensional stability, eliminating the need for expansion gaps and transition strips in large spaces. Like all Karndean luxury vinyl, the LooseLay collection is backed by a lifetime residential warranty.
