Quick Answer

What is Allier?

Allier is a rigid, wood-look SPC floor in a cool medium grey shade, with a thick, high-traffic wear layer for a simple, carefree finish.

Is it waterproof?

Yes — 100% waterproof. Built for daily life: mop-and-go cleaning, occasional spills, and pet accidents wiped up promptly; clean standing water quickly. Indoor use only — outdoor installation is not approved.

How durable is it, and what traffic can it take?

Allier comes with a 20 mil wear layer — equivalent to 0.50 mm — recommended for heavy residential use and many light-commercial applications, so you get excellent protection against everyday scratches, scuffs, and abrasion. A common step-up point where the extra thickness starts to matter.

Will it hold up to daily life?

Office chair wheels, spike-heel point loads, and dragged furniture all concentrate force. Allier's 20 mil wear layer plus 8mm rigid SPC core manages this better than laminate — SPC resists crush-indent where laminate high-density fiberboard would dent permanently.

What does the plank surface look like?

Each Allier plank shows an open cathedral grain with a soft, swirling figure, faint mineral wisps, and the occasional small pin knot. Across a floor those quiet swirls give gentle movement and variation without tipping into a knotty, rustic look. Because the grain is a wood-look print, that soft figure stays crisp and consistent from plank to plank.

Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?

The 1.5mm IXPE anti-microbial acoustic layer damps the hollow "click" sound characteristic of floating floors. Allier is quieter underfoot than LVT with a loose pad — both for the walker and for rooms below in multi-story homes.

Will this color work in my room?

As a cool, mid-depth grey, Allier reads calm and composed and works as a genuine neutral. In bright, sunlit rooms it stays crisp and shows its slate side; in softer or lower light the warm greige in the grain comes forward, keeping it from feeling cold. That balance of cool depth and a warm undertone is what lets it sit comfortably under both cool, modern palettes and warmer, softer schemes.

Overview

Allier is a cool medium grey with real slate depth, warmed just enough by a greige cast in the grain to keep it from turning cold or blue. The boards carry an open cathedral grain with a soft, swirling figure, faint mineral wisps, and a few small pin knots, so it is quiet character rather than heavy rustic markings. It is a wood-look floor, so that swirling grain prints consistently across every plank instead of being cut uniquely from a log. Because Allier is a wood-look print over a stone-polymer core, it stands up to daily wear, scratches, and busy foot traffic. As a cool, composed grey it suits modern and contemporary rooms, transitional spaces, and open-plan living and kitchen areas where you want a calm, slightly cooler floor underfoot.

A cool, slate-toned grey with soft swirling grain, calm and composed and built to take daily wear.

Frequently asked questions

How do I estimate how much flooring I need?
Measure your room's length × width in feet to get square footage, then add 10% for cuts, waste, and attic stock (planks you keep for future repairs). For a 200 sqft room, order about 220 sqft. Allier covers 18.8 sqft per carton, so you'd order 12 cartons (225.6 sqft). Always round up to the next full carton.

Pro tip: Don't shortchange the 10% buffer. If you end up with 3-5 extra cartons, keep them — don't return them. Even if you reorder the same SKU in 3 months, it'll be a different manufacturing batch with slightly different tone and grain. It won't match your existing floor. The extras are insurance against leaks, furniture damage, or cracks down the road.

Do you offer samples I can take home?
Yes. We loan Allier samples with a refundable deposit (cash or credit card, fully refunded when the sample comes back) for one week. Call (408) 753-3220 first to confirm we have Allier in the showroom right now — sample inventory rotates and popular colors are sometimes out on loan to other customers. If we don't have one on-hand, we can usually order a sample from the supplier. Please return the sample in the same condition — the next customer needs to see it honestly. Showroom: 891 Laurelwood Rd, Suite 101, Santa Clara.
What's your return policy?
All sales are final once your order is placed.

Always covered at no cost: manufacturing defects, wrong product shipped, delivery damage documented on receipt. Call (408) 753-3220 to report.

Why not returnable by default: reverse freight on a pallet runs $300–800 with damage risk through 6 handoffs — Kapriz carries that exposure.

Rare written exceptions: 25% restocking fee + customer pays freight. Never for opened cartons, custom orders, or discontinued runs.

Pro tip: call (408) 753-3220 to arrange a sample loan before a large order — confirm the color is in the showroom (inventory rotates).
