Based on gradings and colours, Quick-Step hardwood floors offer a variety of hardwood designs to match any interior style.

• Nature: A clean, refined look with minimal knots for a modern and elegant feel.
• Rustic: A lively appearance with more pronounced knots and natural variations.
• Vibrant: A bold, rustic character with large knots and cracks for a truly authentic look.

There’s a shade for every style: from brown parquet for warmth, to grey parquet for a modern touch. While white parquet creates an airy feeling, dark parquet offers a stylish and elegant look.

The difference between solid wood and engineered wood comes from how they’re built. Solid wood is made from one piece of timber. Engineered wood has several layers, which gives it better stability and reduces the risk of warping or gapping. Quick‑Step hardwood is an engineered wood floor made of four layers:

• Top layer – real wood
• Protective finish – shields the surface
• Core layer – adds stability
• Backing layer – keeps the plank balanced

Thanks to our Wood for Life protection, dirt and spills stay on the surface instead of settling into the grains or joints. This keeps the floor easier to clean and helps it maintain its natural look for longer. Additionally, Quick-Step hardwood is a sustainable choice, as it uses less slow‑growing hardwood and maximises fast‑growing, responsibly sourced wood.

Not all hardwood floors are waterproof, but Quick-Step offers waterproof collections that are perfect for hardwood in kitchens and hardwood in bathrooms. These floors feature an advanced waterproof wood technology, preventing water from seeping into the joints.

Additionally, all Quick-Step hardwood floors are treated with Wood for Life, which protects against dirt, dust, and spills, keeping the grains and joints clean. This also makes maintenance effortless—simply follow our hardwood cleaning guide for long-lasting beauty.

Quick-Step hardwood floors are great for allergy sufferers because their smooth, sealed surface doesn't trap dust, pollen, or pet hair like carpets do. Because the planks click together so tightly, there are no gaps for allergens to hide in, making it easy to wipe them away completely. Plus, these floors are made with low-emission materials, which helps keep the air in your home clean and safe to breathe.

A Quick-Step hardwood floor typically lasts 20 to 40 years, backed by a lifetime warranty that reflects its high-quality construction. Because the top layer consists of genuine wood, it can be professionally sanded and refinished to remove deep scratches, effectively restoring its appearance once or twice over its lifespan.

When combined with their Wood for Life technology, which seals the planks against dirt and moisture, and proper maintenance, these floors can easily remain a beautiful and structural part of your home for decades.

Quick-Step hardwood floors are perfectly suitable for underfloor heating because their stable, multi-layered construction prevents the wood from warping or gapping as temperatures change. Their design allows heat to pass through efficiently, keeping your home warm without wasting energy.

The most effective way to protect your Quick-Step hardwood floor from scratches and wear is to use high-quality entrance mats combined with soft felt protectors on all furniture legs. While the built-in Wood for Life technology provides a strong barrier, using the official Quick-Step cleaning kit, rather than harsh chemicals, will preserve the protective finish without leaving a dulling residue.
