Quick Answer
What is River Cypress?
River Cypress is a wood-look SPC floor in a cool greige tone, with a durable, heavy-traffic 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 top of River Cypress carries a 20 mil wear layer — equal to about 0.51 mm — a good match for heavy residential use and many light-commercial applications, providing excellent protection against everyday scratches, scuffs, and abrasion. That's a step above the standard-duty wear layers.
How do I clean and maintain it?
Safe cleaners for River Cypress' 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?
Up close, River Cypress shows an open cathedral figure that arcs and loops down each board rather than running in straight parallel lines. Fine mineral striations thread along the grain, and small knots with dark centers scatter at a moderate spacing for gentle, low-key character. The printed wood-look surface shifts from one board to the next, so a full floor never looks stamped or repeated.
Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?
There's no separate underlayment to buy and no pad to choose. River Cypress' factory-attached 2mm 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?
River Cypress reads as a clean, silvery greige, cool enough to pair with white, black, and charcoal decor yet soft enough to stay welcoming. In bright daylight the silver side lifts and the floor feels airy and open; under warmer lamplight it eases toward a soft pewter-greige without going flat. Because it sits between cool and neutral, it works just as well against cool blues and greens as it does beside a warmer palette.

Overview
River Cypress sits on the cool side of grey, a soft silver-greige threaded with quiet taupe that keeps it from turning steely or blue. An open cathedral figure arcs and loops across each wide plank, traced by fine mineral striations and the occasional small dark-centered knot, so the surface reads calm and natural rather than busy. As a rigid wood-look floor it takes daily foot traffic, spills, and pet claws in stride, which makes River Cypress an easy fit for open living rooms, bedrooms, and light-filled kitchens where you want a cool, serene neutral underfoot.
A cool silver-greige with fine mineral threads -- serene, airy, and quietly modern.
