Quick Answer
What is Mulberry Oak?
Mulberry Oak is a wood-look SPC floor in a rich warm brown shade, with a hard-wearing residential wear layer for a low-maintenance, practical 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?
The surface is topped by a 12 mil wear layer — equal to about 0.30 mm — well suited to everyday residential use across the busy areas of most homes, providing solid everyday scratch and scuff resistance. A middle-of-the-range wear layer that balances durability with value.
How do I clean and maintain it?
Safe cleaners for Mulberry Oak's 12 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?
Up close, Mulberry Oak shows a long flowing grain cut across by heavy saw-kerf marks and short weathered fissures. Small dark knots scatter over the surface at a moderate spacing, with thin dark mineral streaks threading between them, so no two boards look quite the same. It is a printed wood-look surface built to read rustic and hand-worked rather than smooth and modern.
Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?
There's no separate underlayment to buy and no pad to choose. Mulberry Oak's factory-attached 1.5mm solution EVA 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?
The amber undertone is what keeps Mulberry Oak reading warm rather than flat -- in bright daylight it lifts toward a honeyed brown, and under warm lamplight the amber deepens into a richer, cozier tone. That warmth pairs easily with cream and off-white walls, black iron hardware, and warm metals, and its multi-tonal board-to-board shift means you are not locked into one exact wall color. Read it as a forgiving warm mid-brown that sets a cozy, rustic mood in the room.

Overview
Rustic amber runs through the warm medium brown of Mulberry Oak, warming the whole board without tipping orange. A long flowing grain is broken up by sawn kerf marks, scattered small knots, and dark mineral streaks, so each plank reads as a genuinely worked, weathered face rather than a clean uniform one. As a rigid click-lock plank, Mulberry Oak stands up to daily traffic, spills, and pet claws, which makes it a practical pick for busy kitchens, entryways, and family rooms that want warmth with a bit of grit.
A warm amber brown worn with sawn kerf marks and scattered knots -- rustic character you can live on.
