Quick Answer
What is Onyx?
Onyx is a waterproof, wood-look SPC floor in a blonde shade, with a thick, high-traffic wear layer for a durable, easy-care finish.
Is it waterproof?
Yes — 100% waterproof. Everyday spills, pet accidents, and mop water won't swell, warp, or delaminate the planks when wiped up promptly; standing water should still be cleaned up quickly. Not approved for outdoor installation; test the subfloor for moisture before installing.
How durable is it, and what traffic can it take?
Onyx has a 20 mil wear layer — measuring about 0.50 mm — suited to heavy residential use and many light-commercial applications, offering excellent protection against everyday scratches, scuffs, and abrasion. It runs noticeably thicker than the entry-level wear layers.
Will it hold up to daily life?
Onyx's 20 mil wear layer and finish are rated for pet claws, chair legs, dragged furniture, and heavy daily traffic — the scratch resistance that matters in kitchens, entryways, and pet households where foot and paw traffic concentrates.
What does the plank surface look like?
Each Onyx plank shows a straight blonde grain with a soft cathedral figure and fine mineral streaking, plus a loose cluster of pin and small knots toward one end. The print sits under a 20 mil wear layer, and a 1.5mm IXPE acoustic pad comes factory-attached to the back of every plank to cushion footsteps. At 9 inches wide and 60 inches long, the boards keep the grain long and continuous.
Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?
There's no separate underlayment to buy and no pad to choose. Onyx's factory-attached 1.5mm IXPE acoustic pad comes bonded to every plank and dampens footfall noise throughout the home — one less material decision and one less install step.
Is it safe for indoor air?
Yes — Onyx carries FloorScore, GREENGUARD Gold, CARB Phase 2, Zero Formaldehyde, EPA TSCA Title VI, Lacey Act, FSC certifications, independently tested for low chemical emissions. That matters most for households with allergies, asthma, or young children.
Will this color work in my room?
As a warm blonde, Onyx leans bright and neutral enough to suit most kitchens and open living spaces. The golden warmth keeps it from feeling cold under cool daylight, while staying light enough to make a room feel larger. It pairs naturally with white and warm-white walls and with wood-tone or painted cabinetry, and the steady striping reads calm rather than busy across a wide floor.

Overview
Onyx is a blonde wood-look with a soft golden warmth, light enough to keep a kitchen feeling open without reading stark. The straight grain runs in steady linear striping, and a loose scatter of pin and small knots gathers toward the lower edge of each board, with fine mineral streaking threading the surface. In the modern transitional kitchen we photographed, Onyx sits under a warm overhead glow beside a marble waterfall island and white leather stools, the warm-white walls letting the floor set an easy, polished tone. The 9-inch by 60-inch planks are built on an SPC stone-polymer core that is fully waterproof, so the look holds up where a kitchen actually gets used. It is a wood-look print over that rigid core, finished with a 20 mil wear layer.
Onyx reads as a calm blonde base, golden enough to warm a kitchen and light enough to keep it open.
