Mineral Rustic Waterproof WPC | Paradigm Flooring

What is Mineral?

Mineral is a wood-look WPC floor in a warm greige taupe tone, with a durable, heavy-traffic wear layer for a simple, carefree finish.

Is it waterproof?

Yes — 100% waterproof. The rigid core stands up to everyday surface water — spills, mop water, pet accidents — without swelling or delaminating when wiped up promptly. It won't substitute for fixing a standing leak; dry the floor and the source quickly. Not approved for outdoor installation; keep the subfloor dry before and during install.

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

This floor has a 20 mil wear layer — approximately 0.51 mm — ideal for heavy residential use and many light-commercial applications, delivering excellent protection against everyday scratches, scuffs, and abrasion. It's a step up from the standard-duty wear layers in everyday durability.

Will it hold up to daily life?

Minor scratches on Mineral stay low-visibility — faint surface marks rather than the bright white scuff lines a glossy floor shows. The 20 mil wear layer hides minor wear within the printed grain pattern — low visibility, not just high durability.

What does the plank surface look like?

The plank surface wears its age gently: fine mineral streaks and small character marks drift across soft, weathered cathedral arches, with only subtle shifts board to board. The printed surface reproduces that quietly aged figure evenly underfoot, so it looks characterful without a single rough spot.

Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?

The 1mm IXPE acoustic layer damps the hollow "click" sound characteristic of floating floors. Mineral is quieter underfoot than LVT with a loose pad — both for the walker and for rooms below in multi-story homes.

Is it safe for indoor air?

Yes — Mineral carries FloorScore certification, independently tested for low chemical emissions. That matters most for households with allergies, asthma, or young children.

Will this color work in my room?

In soft natural daylight Mineral's earthy taupe reads warm and composed, its greige undertone keeping the color sophisticated rather than plain brown. Under warm sconce light in the evening it deepens and grows cozier. The tone is a natural companion to terracotta, slate blue, cream, and charcoal, earthy accents make it glow, cool ones make it read refined.
