ALLOC HOME MAKES IT EASY TO CREATE A BEAUTIFUL HOME

Everyone desires a home which is both beautiful and easy to look after. When you choose Alloc, you choose a floor that remains beautiful year after year without the need to sand and seal it. Alloc Home has a surface of direct laminate and can be installed in all rooms with moderate to normal wear (not wetrooms). You can select from 19 colours and designs, and we provide a warranty for a whole 15 years.

The patented locking system makes installing Alloc Home extremely easy. We guarantee a perfectly laid floor, with tight joints and an even surface. This prevents grime and dust from taking hold, it is simple to clean and creates a healthy indoor environment.

Alloc Home is easy to handle, and thin enough to avoid trimming doors. The patented locking system means that the boards clip together easily - without using glue. You avoid having to move furniture around as you lay the floor. Once the floor has been laid, it is ready for use.

ALLOC LOCKING SYSTEM - THE PATENTED REVOLUTION

Alloc Home has a patentd locking system milled into its core material. The boards are easy to join, and the result is perfect. Alloc Home Stays the way it was laid - year after year. Guaranteed!

JOINT STRENGTH

Our patented locking system on Alloc Home ensures a strong joint that withstands loads from furniture and objects without the boards separating. The floor can also be taken apart and relaid in a different place - the joints will continue to be just as strong.

PRESSURE-TREATED JOINTS

Alloc Home withstands some moisture. All joints are sealed, preventing moisture penetrating the core. The prevents the floor from swelling.
