Overview

Industrial Grey Natural Composite Flooring

A concrete-cool Forna Natural Composite plank with a fully waterproof Hydrowood core, rated for commercial traffic and quiet underfoot. Industrial Grey brings the muted, workshop-inspired grey of modern loft and studio spaces to a floor built with a natural linseed composite surface: linseed oil, pine resin, limestone, cork wood flour, and jute. With a lightfastness rating of 7/8, that colour stays put even in sun-washed rooms. Each 620 mm x 450 mm (24 13/32 in x 17 46/64 in) plank is built in three layers: a 1.5 mm natural linseed composite surface over a 6.8 mm Hydrowood waterproof core, finished underneath with 1.2 mm of agglomerated cork. The result is a 9.5 mm (3/8 in) floating plank that shrugs off moisture (less than 1 percent swelling after 24 hours in water) while the cork backing cuts impact noise by 17 dB and adds a touch of warmth and give underfoot. It carries a class 33 commercial durability rating, so it is at home in busy hallways, kitchens, offices, and retail spaces as much as in living rooms. The Uniclic click-lock profile floats over the subfloor with no glue, and the floor is approved for every level of the home: above grade, on grade, and below grade, including over electric or hydronic underfloor heating.

Why this floor

Fully waterproof Hydrowood core: 24-hour swelling under 1 percent (EN 317), suitable for moisture-prone areas.
Class 33 commercial durability (EN 16511), backed by a 5-year commercial and 15-year residential warranty.
17 dB impact sound reduction from the natural linseed composite layer paired with a 1.2 mm pressed cork backing.
Uniclic click-lock joints with a locking strength above 650 kg per linear metre (ISO 24334).
Lightfastness rated 7/8 (ISO 105 greater than 7): the colour resists fading in direct sunlight.
R10 slip resistance rating (EN 51130) and very good chemical resistance (EN 423).
UL GREENGUARD Gold certified for low emissions and healthier indoor air, with underfloor heating compatibility (thermal resistance 0.09 m² K/W).

Installation & care

Use this checklist to plan the project, then follow the linked product guide for the exact requirements.

Confirm that the subfloor is clean, dry, level and structurally sound; use a moisture barrier where the linked guide requires one.
Acclimate and inspect the material, mix planks from multiple cartons, and preserve every required perimeter and transition gap.
Sweep or vacuum grit and clean with a well-wrung damp cloth or mop—never leave standing water on the floor.
