Invictus Royal Oak Flooring

The five Royal Oak colours

• Blonde: the lightest, tagged as a light oak.
• Dove: a grey toned oak of medium depth.
• Nordic: also grey toned and medium, so put it next to Dove before you choose.
• Mocca: a medium brown oak.
• Traditional: a warm, medium oak, also tagged toffee.

Plank, parquet or click

• Glue down plank: 178 mm x 1219 mm, 2 mm thick, 3.69 m² a pack. All five colours at £24.99 per m².
• Glue down parquet: 102 mm x 406 mm blocks, 2 mm thick, 1.49 m² a pack. All five colours at £29.99 per m².
• Click plank: 181 mm x 1213 mm, 5 mm thick, 2.22 m² a pack. Four colours, with no Nordic, at £29.99 per m².

Pairing formats between rooms

The glue down plank and the glue down parquet are both 2 mm thick, so a plank hall can run into a parquet living room in the same colour with no step. The click plank is 5 mm thick, about 3 mm higher, so a join with a glue down room needs a threshold strip. Nordic has no click version, so if you want it in two rooms, choose glue down for both.

Which range and wear layer

Royal Oak is part of Invictus Primus, with a 0.30 mm wear layer and a 20 year residential warranty. It is a home floor, best in bedrooms, studies and rooms that see light traffic. For a hall or kitchen with heavy daily use, a thicker wear layer suits better. Look in Maximus, where New England Oak and Highland Oak are the nearest oaks.

What a 20 m² room costs

With 10% wastage, a plank room needs 22 m², so 6 packs of glue down plank at £553.26. Click plank needs 10 packs and costs £665.80. Parquet needs 15% wastage, 23 m², so 16 packs at £715.04. Figures are for flooring only. The flooring calculator will do your own room, and the adhesive calculator covers the glue down options.
