Unilin Flooring has launched the updated Moduleo LayRed engineered vinyl flooring range, bringing performance improvements, a more natural look and new wood, tile and herringbone designs.
Launched in 2019, Unilin Flooring’s original Moduleo LayRed engineered vinyl flooring range has been used in some of the UK’s most significant housing projects. Recently, Birmingham’s Great Charles Street, London’s Wood Wharf and Cardiff’s Verse have all used Moduleo LayRed to deliver a comfortable, quiet (21dB impact sound reduction), durable and easy to maintain floor. The new Moduleo LayRed range comes with improved features and brand new designs to ensure it continues to be the right choice for commercial projects needing an easy to install flooring solution.
New LayRed comes equipped with Hydroseal that combines with the precision fit of Uniclic® to create a surface that water simply can’t penetrate: LayRed is now 100% waterproof. Scratch resistance has also been markedly improved with the Protectonite Plus® excimer coating. With added anti-abrasive protection it reduces micro scratches and heightens appearance thanks to an ability to show different gloss levels without losing its matt effect. Moduleo has also improved the bevel of LayRed with the floor now using a milled bevel that takes the pattern all the way to the edge for a more natural looking end result.
Moduleo LayRed also features enhanced surface structures on selected designs. Combining micro and macro textures, Refined Emboss (NEIR) adds many more depth levels for a richer and more realistic texture that makes the new Moduleo LayRed feel warmer, softer and more inviting.
LayRed’s wood plank, herringbone and tile designs have also been improved. Alongside popular designs like Blackjack Oak, Moduleo has developed brand-new wood structures in richly grained Stanford Oak, Lockwood Oak and Dingle Oak or the elegance of Haarlemmer Oak and Wistman Oak. Even existing designs have been given a little extra, Country Oak is now available in new colours with a rustic grain that has fewer marks and a less worn effect. 40 wood effects are available across small plank, medium plank and herringbone. Moduleo LayRed’s herringbone planks feature Unizip®, a click profile specially designed for herringbone floors that eliminates ‘A’ and ‘B’ planks for less waste and a faster install.
Tile designs have also been extensively updated. New Silky Satin comes in trending colours of terracotta and soft warm cream, while Izusa’s concrete design is in soft natural tones. Montecelio is another new tile pattern – a travertine stone with cut veins in matt tones of bone and grey. These join existing Balzano terrazzo and Mustang Slate. Small tiles come in Izusa and Mustang Slate, while medium tiles are available in nine designs.
Moduleo LayRed is made in Belgium using premium materials for a floor of impressive quality. It brings a durable, easy to maintain and waterproof floor with a Class 33 heavy commercial use rating. What’s more, LayRed comes with a minimum 22% pre-consumer recycled content*. And because it’s installed without glue, any installation waste or end-of-life flooring can be downcycled through Unilin’s Recover take back programme.
