COREtec Pro Classics — 5mm Waterproof SPC Vinyl Plank (COREtec Pro)

COREtec Pro Classics is the entry tier of the COREtec Pro line — a 5mm rigid SPC (stone-polymer composite) plank that is 100% waterproof and built for everyday rooms. Each 7.2″ × 48″ board carries a 20 mil commercial-grade wear layer, a clean micro-bevel edge, and a pre-attached cork underlayment, and clicks together with an angle-tap / drop-lock floating system. It is GREENGUARD Gold certified and backed by a 30-Year Residential Limited and 15-Year Heavy Commercial warranty. Kapriz carries 15 warm, neutral colors, available to order through our Santa Clara showroom.

Colors in the Pro Classics collection

The 15 Pro Classics colors are warm and neutral, leaning toward the soft oak-look tones that suit almost any room. The lightest — Flagstaff Oak, Quincy Oak, and Roswell Hickory — are pale and airy, ideal for opening up small or low-light spaces. The mid-range runs through honeyed, golden browns like Springfield Oak, Belmont Hickory, and Cartwheel Oak, while the deepest — Biscayne Oak, Monterey Oak, and Duxbury Oak — bring rich, smoky warmth to larger or brighter rooms. WP shows each color’s product card below.

Best uses for Pro Classics

  • Kitchens & bathrooms — the 100% waterproof SPC core handles spills and humidity with ease.
  • Basements & below-grade rooms — dimensionally stable over concrete with the right moisture barrier.
  • High-traffic & pet homes — the 20 mil wear layer resists scratches, grit, and claw marks.
  • Rentals & flips — a value-priced, durable, easy-clean floor that installs fast and glueless.
  • Whole-home installs — neutral oak tones run seamlessly from room to room.

Choosing a color from the Pro Classics collection

Pick lighter colors like Flagstaff or Quincy to brighten a small or north-facing room, and the deeper Biscayne or Monterey to add warmth and hide everyday dust in busy, well-lit spaces; the mid-tone oaks are the safest match for mixed cabinetry. Because screens never show color exactly, order a sample and view it under your own daylight and evening light before committing — our Santa Clara showroom team can help you compare and confirm the current dye lot.

Frequently asked questions about the Pro Classics collection

Is Pro Classics waterproof enough for a bathroom?
Yes. The 5mm rigid SPC core is 100% waterproof, so Pro Classics is suitable for bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms. Seal the floor perimeter with silicone caulk in bathrooms during installation.
Can I install Pro Classics myself?
Yes — it is a floating floor with an angle-tap / drop-lock click that needs no glue or nails. The subfloor must be flat to within 3/16″ over 10 feet, and concrete should be moisture-tested first. Stagger end joints at least 8 inches and leave a 1/4″ expansion gap at the walls (1/2″ for areas over 2,500 sq ft).
Do I need to add underlayment?
No. A cork underlayment is already pre-bonded to every plank, so you do not add a separate pad underneath.
How many boxes will I need?
Each carton covers 28.84 sq ft. Divide your room’s square footage by 28.84 and add about 10% for cuts and waste. Our showroom team can confirm the exact carton count for your project.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes. All 15 Pro Classics colors are available to order through our Santa Clara showroom, and we recommend ordering a sample to view under your own lighting before you buy.
