A pet-friendly floor should be...

A hybrid vinyl floor:
withstands almost anything
Hybrid vinyl is probably the best choice in terms of performance for your pet-friendly floor, our floors are highly resistant to scratches and stains. What’s more, vinyl also has sound-absorbing qualities, which will reduce the noise of your pet walking around on the floor. But no worries, you don’t have to compromise on the beauty of your floor. Within our vinyl range you have a wide selection of lovely stone and wood designs.
A laminate floor:
authentic beauty, easy maintenance
Our laminate floors, like hybrid vinyl, are very resistant to stains and scratches. Moreover, our laminate floors (especially our Perspective Nature collection) have the most authentic laminate designs that come as close to real wood as possible. Although laminate is less sound-absorbing than hybrid vinyl, it’s a great choice if you want to combine authentic beauty with ease of maintenance.
A timber floor:
protected thanks to Easy to clean
You might be surprised to know that even our timber floors are suitable for pets. The Easy to clean technology makes our timber floors much more resistant to stains than its competitors. This innovative protective layer prevents dirt from getting into the wood and helps to preserve its as-new look for years. Besides, a wood floor offers the most authentic look of course as you’re bringing real wood into your home.
