Description
Molokai PI20032 — Paradigm Insignia 20MIL SPC, 6mm, 7-inch
Mudrooms to master baths, Molokai holds up where traditional floors fail. Grey brown with weathered grain with visible knots and subtle character marks defines the look; 6mm SPC with a 20 mil wear layer defines the performance. 7-inch by 48-inch planks float over most existing hard surfaces with an angle-tap click — no adhesive required. The 100% waterproof core handles the water that sinks hardwood. On display now at Kapriz Hardwood Floors in Santa Clara, CA.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this floor be installed over existing flooring?
Yes, in most cases. Molokai can float over existing hard flooring that is flat, structurally sound, and no more than 3/4 inch above the finished floor threshold. Always remove carpet before installing.
How do I get this flooring?
You can pick up your order at our Santa Clara showroom at 891 Laurelwood Rd, Suite 101, or we deliver to homes within a 60-mile radius of Santa Clara. We also ship nationwide. Call or text us to arrange pickup, delivery, or shipping for your Molokai order.
How do I clean this floor?
Sweep or dry-mop Molokai regularly to remove dust and grit. For deeper cleaning, use a damp mop with a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid steam mops, wax, and oil-based products — they can damage the wear layer or void the warranty.
Is this floor pet-friendly?
Yes. Molokai’s 20 mil wear layer resists scratches from pet claws, and the 100% waterproof SPC core handles pet accidents without damage to the plank or subfloor.
Is this flooring 100% waterproof?
Molokai is built on a 100% waterproof SPC (Solid Polymer Core) rigid core. It will not swell, warp, buckle, or delaminate from water or moisture exposure — making it safe for kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and laundry rooms.
