Following the immense success of our premier rigid core, click-locking range Korlok Select, we have expanded the range to include 9 new colours.
Known for our original product designs, we created the new Korlok Select visuals from rare and treasured American and European woods. These unique designs, combined with industry-leading rigid core technology, make Korlok Select the perfect choice for projects that need completing quickly.
American Barnwood
Salvaged in the northeast, the American barnwood design was developed from antique barn siding that had been naturally eroded by the elements to produce splintered boards with deep grooves. Natural finishing oils brought to life the boards that had faded over time, while lively colour and character shifts promote the wood’s extreme variation of features. The three American barnwoods are available in a full-size 56” x 9” plank.
English Oak
The English oaks were sourced from a British woodland within south Oxfordshire, home to Oxford University and a region known for its stunning country homes and gardens. Expressive shadow-sawn markings within the planks were inspired by the weathered stonework seen in the town. Tonal colour variation creates a blended effect, while grey and beige matte oils produce light contemporary colours.
Brushed Oak
Reflecting the clean lines and simplicity of Scandinavian style, this design features minimal tonal variation. The source boards were wire-brushed to heighten the unique and interesting grain pattern, which is a combination of flowery and straight grain. The texture created by this process inspired a new and original registered emboss that beautifully aligns with the grain detail.
Baltic Oak
Drawing inspiration from the Baltic region of Europe, this design was achieved by mixing wood grades, from ultra-prime to mature grade, a process not available in hardwood. Coloured oils were then applied to create a washed effect.
European Oak
Retaining the much-loved characteristics of natural, prime grade European oak, light detailing within the tight grain is reflective of the machine brushing and rapid dehydration that occurs within the sawn boards.
Industry-Leading Technology
Korlok Select features several elements that aid the speed and ease of installation, including 5G® drop and lock technology, minimal subfloor preparation and no need for adhesive. The company’s 100% waterproof, proprietary K-core technology provides a rigid core that allows for installation over most existing hard floors and uneven subfloors. Ideal for environments where acoustics are a primary concern, Korlok Select’s pre-attached acoustic foam backing helps to reduce noise transfer to rooms below by 22dB. The range was honoured with a Good Design Award® following its initial release in 2017.
Korlok Select planks are sized 56” x 9” and have a 20mil wear layer. Only Korlok Select is backed by the HoldFast Lifetime Warranty, which guarantees end joint integrity. Explore the entire Korlok Select range and request samples of your favourites!
