Each 3.252m² box contains 15 planks, making coverage calculation straightforward. Compatible with underfloor heating systems up to 27°C for added comfort.

Design Inspiration:
Enhance your floor design by incorporating Karndean Design Strips between planks. DS04, DS05, and DS06 wood-effect strips complement the warm red-brown tones beautifully, adding definition and richness. For elegant contrast, try DS16 Charcoal to create sophisticated borders.
