Conquest 20MIL — 8mm Waterproof SPC (Paradigm Flooring)
Conquest is Paradigm’s flagship SPC collection — the most robust of the brand’s stone-core floors. Each plank pairs a 6.5mm rigid stone polymer core with a 1.5mm factory-attached pad (8mm total), a commercial-grade 20-mil wear layer, and a Ceramic Bead finish with an Embossed-in-Register texture that lines the grain up with the print. Wide 9″ × 72″ boards lock together with a Unilin 5G angle system, and the whole line is FloorScore certified and 100% waterproof. Conquest offers 42 colors — the widest range in the brand — available to order through our Santa Clara showroom.

Colors in the Conquest 20MIL
Conquest carries the brand’s broadest palette. Most boards sit in the warm neutral middle — soft medium beiges and light browns that read easily with white or wood cabinetry — with a run of rustic multi-tone character planks (visible knots and mineral streaking) for a more lived-in look, a few pale blondes and light greiges for brighter rooms, and a handful of deeper browns to ground a large space. Because the palette is so wide, Conquest is the collection to start with when you want one floor to work across a whole home.
Best uses for Conquest 20MIL
- Whole-home installs — the widest palette plus 9″ × 72″ planks carry one look wall-to-wall.
- Kitchens & bathrooms — the 100% waterproof stone core shrugs off spills and mopping.
- Basements & below-grade rooms — rated for below-grade floating installation.
- High-traffic living areas — the 20-mil commercial wear layer is built for daily wear.
- Busy family & pet homes — a dense SPC core resists dents from furniture and paws.
Choosing a color from the Conquest 20MIL
In a bright room the pale beiges and blondes stay light and airy; in a low-light space a warm medium brown feels cozier and hides everyday dust better. If your cabinetry is white or grey, the neutral beiges and greiges are the safe match; warmer wood cabinets pair well with the browns and rustic multi-tone boards. Grain and undertone shift under your own lighting, so order a sample and see it at our Santa Clara showroom before you commit.
