Elka laminate flooring is a range of wood-effect laminate floors based on a range of different wood types, shades and designs. The brand is aimed at both home use with its AC3 grade floors and at commercial premises with its tougher AC4 grade products.
The maker describes its floors as offering the best combination of style and technology, with the ability to promote the durability associated with laminate and the most modern styles and fashions at the same time.
It has a number of V groove products, which have distinctive bevelled edges to give a particularly stylish look and fulfil the tastes of those looking to enjoy deeper colour tones, something that is also achieved by offering a range of different styles and shades in its range. All come with click system installation.
The maker also offers premium hardwood, solid wood and engineered flooring.
Elka V Groove Laminate Flooring
The Elka V groove laminate flooring may be considered the flagship part of the firms range. These popular products include versions such as Loft Oak, which is a very pale shade of wood ideally suited to those who want a lighter colour. It has very distinct joints between its 192 mm-wide planks, with the bevelled edges producing a notable emphasis on these. This 8 mm thick product comes in AC4 grade laminate and is ideal for a room with heavy foot traffic.
Another example in the range is the Character Oak product, coming in a darker honey brown hue but still with the notable bevelled edges. While the Loft Oak is a consistent pales shade with little in the way of markings, this has a hint of darker rings, lines and knots. Once again, it has AC4 grade strength. Indeed, all the V-groove products offer a 20-year warranty as testament to their toughness.
For those seeking a particularly distinctive pattern, the Zebarano may be the ideal solution. This has multiple lines in different shades of brown, offering a striped pattern, while it is textured to give a grainy, natural feel. The Heartwood product also offers a multi-tone wood. And for those who like a particularly rustic look, the Reclaimed Larch may be perfect, with a textured surface ensuring it both looks and feels unpolished.
The Elka laminate flooring plank products offer something for those who like a smoother edge. These are products with squared edges so that the surface offers a smooth continuity, a contrasting style with the bevelled edges of the V-groove products that suits those with a different taste.
One variation between these products is that some offer uniform, matching strips, while others come in a two-strip format, where the joins at the end overlap in the manner of bricks in a wall.
Those who prefer lighter colours may go for the Honey Oak version, while those seeking mid-tones might like the Rustic Oak. Two-strip Walnut and Wenge products are on offer for those who are seeking something darker.
All of these products come with 7 mm of thickness and 192 mm of plank width, the laminate itself being AC3 grade with a 15-year warranty.
