Odyssey 20MIL — 7mm Waterproof WPC (Paradigm Flooring)
Odyssey is Paradigm’s green-certified WPC collection — the only line in the brand that adds GREENGUARD Gold to its FloorScore certification. Each continuous-press plank pairs a 6mm waterproof composite core with a 1mm IXPE pad (7mm total), a 20-mil wear layer, and a Urethane Ceramic Bead finish over Painted V-Groove edges. Wide 9″ × 72″ boards lock with a Unilin Angle/Angle system, and the floor is 100% waterproof with a Lifetime Residential warranty. Odyssey offers 14 light, airy colors — available to order through our Santa Clara showroom.

Colors in the Odyssey 20MIL
Odyssey is Paradigm’s lightest, airiest palette. It centers on pale blondes and soft light browns, with a warm honey tone, a light greige, and a couple of gently rustic multi-tone boards to add movement. These are the colors that open up a small or low-light room and keep an open-plan space feeling bright and calm — a natural fit if you want a Scandinavian or coastal-light look rather than a dark, dramatic floor.
Best uses for Odyssey 20MIL
- Bedrooms & nurseries — the FloorScore + GREENGUARD Gold certification is meaningful where air quality matters most.
- Small or low-light rooms — the pale blonde and light tones visually enlarge and brighten a space.
- Kitchens & bathrooms — the 100% waterproof WPC core handles wet zones.
- Open-plan living — 9″ × 72″ light planks keep a large room feeling airy and seamless.
- Basements — rated for below-grade floating installation.
Choosing a color from the Odyssey 20MIL
Because Odyssey runs light, the main choice is warmth: the honey and light-brown tones add a cozy glow, while the blondes and greige stay cooler and more neutral. Very pale floors show less dust but can look washed-out in a bright, sun-flooded room — so if your space gets strong daylight, a light brown often holds its character better than the palest blonde.
