Chestnut

Chestnut Leather Flooring

Real recycled leather underfoot: rich chestnut warmth, Swiss engineering, and a click-together floating plank rated for commercial traffic.

Chestnut is a genuine bonded leather floor in a deep, warm brown. Because the surface is authentic leather, every plank carries its own gentle creases and organic grain, so no two pieces read exactly alike. The high resistance matte finish keeps the look natural rather than glossy.

The leather itself is chrome free and responsibly recovered from European tannery off-cuts, then pressed into planks in Switzerland. Each 915 mm x 305 mm (36 in x 12 in) plank layers that leather surface over a 6.8 mm E1 grade moisture resistant HDF core with a 1.2 mm agglomerated cork backing, sealed under a HotCoating wear layer that resists scratches and chemicals.

Underfoot, the combination feels different from wood or laminate: the leather surface is soft and comfortable, while the cork backing quiets footfall with a 17 dB impact sound improvement. Click-lock edges let the planks float over the subfloor, above grade, on grade, or below grade, and the floor is compatible with electric and hydronic underfloor heating.

With a Commercial class 32 rating it is at home well beyond living rooms: think boutiques, offices, hotel spaces, and busy kitchens, anywhere you want the character of leather with everyday durability.

Important product note

Chestnut is made from natural leather, so colour variation is expected and part of its unique look. Gentle creases and organic grain differ from plank to plank; this individuality is a feature of genuine leather, not a defect.
