Quick Answer

What is Madrid?

Madrid is a waterproof, wood-look SPC floor built around a soft honey tan color, with a heavy residential, light-commercial-ready wear layer for a simple, carefree finish.

Is it waterproof?

Yes — 100% waterproof. Day-to-day life — a dropped glass, a pet bowl, a tracked-in puddle — wipes up without swelling or delamination when cleaned promptly; standing water should not be left to sit. Outdoor use is not approved.

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

Madrid comes with a 20 mil wear layer — approximately 0.50 mm — designed 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.

How do I clean and maintain it?

Safe cleaners for Madrid's 20 mil wear layer: vinyl-safe cleaners, damp microfiber mops, vacuum on hard-floor setting. The finish rules out abrasive scrubbers, bleach, ammonia, and solvent-based cleaners — these dull the wear layer permanently.

What does the plank surface look like?

Each Madrid plank shows a tight straight grain with quiet cathedral loops arcing through the center. Fine grain lines run the length of the board, with short faint fissures and mild figure variation from plank to plank. There are no knots, so the surface stays clean and even.

Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?

There's no separate underlayment to buy and no pad to choose. Madrid's factory-attached 1.5mm IXPE anti-microbial acoustic pad comes bonded to every plank and dampens footfall noise throughout the home — one less material decision and one less install step.

Will this color work in my room?

Madrid works best in rooms with real daylight. Under the bright midday light in this space, the honey tan lifts and its golden warmth comes forward, keeping the floor cheerful rather than orange. In a darker, north-facing room the same tan would read a shade deeper and more grounded. Madrid pairs easily with white walls, greens like sage, and warm leather tones.

Overview

Madrid is a warm honey tan with soft golden undertones, a light brown that reads friendly rather than formal. Across the wide planks a tight straight grain is broken by quiet cathedral loops near the center, with fine grain lines and short faint fissures that keep every board looking natural. In the photographed room, Madrid runs under bright daylight through a mid-century modern living space, where its honeyed tone plays off a sage sofa and cognac leather lounge chairs. The wood-look print sits over a stone-polymer core, so it takes daily foot traffic and wipes clean. It suits open living rooms and sitting areas where you want warmth without heaviness.

A honey-tan floor that lets cognac leather and sage upholstery do the talking.

Frequently asked questions

What does it look like installed in a real room?
In the installed photo, Madrid runs through a mid-century modern living room lit by bright daylight. The honey-tan boards sit beneath a sage sofa and a pair of cognac leather lounge chairs, with large abstract paintings and table lamps setting the mood. An espresso wood-tone console sits along one wall, its darker finish framing the lighter floor. The overall effect is a collected, art-forward room where Madrid keeps the palette warm.
Will it match my cabinets?
Madrid is flexible with cabinetry. Against the espresso wood-tone console in this room, the lighter honey floor gives clear contrast without clashing. It also works with white or cream cabinets for a brighter look, and with mid-brown cabinets as long as you keep a little tonal separation so the two do not blur together.
Will it still look this bright in a windowless basement?
In a windowless basement, Madrid reads a little deeper and cozier than it does in daylight, since there is no sun to lift the golden tones. Warm LED lighting keeps it looking honey-toned; very cool bulbs can flatten it toward beige. For a lower-level family room, that slightly deeper read is usually a plus.
Does this floor work with indoor plants?
Yes. The warm honey tan of Madrid is a friendly backdrop for greenery, and the green of a potted plant reads crisply against it. Because the grain is quiet and knot-free, leafy shapes and planters stand out cleanly rather than competing with busy figure.
