Description

Tawny PPSPC1210 — Paradigm Performer 12MIL SPC, 6mm, 7-inch

6mm SPC, 20 mil wear layer, 100% waterproof, lifetime warranty. That’s the engineering behind Tawny — the aesthetics come from neutral taupe brown with flowing cathedral grain with subtle knots and natural variation. 7-inch by 60-inch planks float over most subfloors with an angle-tap click system. Pre-attached cork underlayment softens step and dampens sound. See it at Kapriz Hardwood Floors in Santa Clara, CA.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much expansion gap is needed?
Tawny requires a 1/4-inch expansion gap at all walls, fixed cabinets, and pipes. This gap lets the SPC planks flex with minor temperature changes without buckling or gapping.
How do I get this flooring?
You can pick up your order at our Santa Clara showroom at 891 Laurelwood Rd, Suite 101, or we deliver to homes within a 60-mile radius of Santa Clara. We also ship nationwide. Call or text us to arrange pickup, delivery, or shipping for your Tawny order.
What kind of subfloor do I need?
Tawny installs over most subfloors — plywood, OSB, concrete, tile, or even existing vinyl. The subfloor must be flat to within 3/16 inch over 10 feet and structurally sound.
What is the cork underlayment for?
Tawny comes with a pre-attached cork underlayment that cushions every step, dampens sound transmission between floors, and acts as a thermal barrier — no separate underlayment purchase required.
Is this flooring 100% waterproof?
Tawny is built on a 100% waterproof SPC (Solid Polymer Core) rigid core. It will not swell, warp, buckle, or delaminate from water or moisture exposure — making it safe for kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and laundry rooms.
