Quick Answer

What is Sunset Ivory?

Sunset Ivory is a rigid, wood-look SPC floor built around a medium brown color, with a thick, high-traffic wear layer for a durable, easy-care finish.

Is it waterproof?

Yes — 100% waterproof. A splash at the sink or a dropped glass wipes up without harming Sunset Ivory when cleaned promptly; don't leave water standing. Indoor use only — outdoor installation is not approved.

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

The flooring uses a 20 mil wear layer — which works out to 0.51 mm — made for heavy residential use and many light-commercial applications, giving you 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?

Sunset Ivory has a 20 mil protective layer — thicker than the thin wear layers on entry-level LVT. That's the physical protective film above the print, sealed by finish.

What does the plank surface look like?

Up close, each Sunset Ivory plank shows concentric cathedral arches at its center, loosening into tight, parallel edge grain along the rails. Dark pin knots scatter along the board edges at a moderate spacing, small enough to add character without crowding the face. The printed wood-look surface repeats this detail board to board, so the floor stays visually varied without any two planks fighting for attention.

Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?

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

Will this color work in my room?

Under the warm ambient light of an evening room, Sunset Ivory's caramel warmth turns richer and a little moody, the mid-brown deepening rather than washing out. Daytime window light lifts the same tone toward a softer honey-caramel, so the floor shifts gently between a relaxed daytime read and a warmer nighttime one. It suits rooms you want to feel intimate after dark without going heavy.

Overview

Sunset Ivory reads as a warm medium brown with a soft caramel undertone that keeps it from going flat or grey. Concentric cathedral loops open at the center of each board and taper into tight parallel grain along the rails, so the figure moves without turning busy. Set in a restaurant lounge under warm evening light, the caramel tone deepens into something upscale and moody, at ease beside marble and dark paneling.

A warm caramel-brown floor with upscale, evening-lit presence -- Sunset Ivory dresses a room without shouting.

Frequently asked questions

What does it look like installed in a real room?
Installed in a modern restaurant lounge, Sunset Ivory runs warm beneath upholstered dining chairs in tan and olive, a marble bar, and dark wood-tone paneling. A cascading sculptural pendant and a backlit bar throw pools of warm light across the caramel-brown boards, while a black-tiled feature wall gives the floor a crisp, high-contrast edge. The overall look is luxe and intentional -- a hospitality-grade floor that reads as warm and grown-up rather than rustic.
Will it match my cabinets?
Yes -- Sunset Ivory is a natural partner for dark cabinetry and paneling. Its caramel-brown warmth sits a few shades lighter than a deep espresso or black-brown cabinet, giving you contrast without a hard line, and it works just as well under mid-tone or painted cabinets in warm neutrals. In the lounge it pairs cleanly with dark wood-tone paneling, reading warm against the darker surround.
How does this color read in a windowless basement?
In a low-light or windowless room, Sunset Ivory keeps its warmth instead of turning muddy -- the caramel undertone stops a medium brown from going flat when there is no daylight. Add warm-temperature lamps or ambient fixtures and the floor reads rich and inviting, much as it does under the evening light it was photographed in. If anything, dim warm light flatters this tone.
Does this floor work with indoor plants?
Yes. A statement palm or other large leafy plant looks great over Sunset Ivory -- the caramel-brown warmth makes fresh green read even more vivid, the way the palm greenery pops in the lounge. Warm-toned floors like this one flatter both deep tropical foliage and softer sage or olive leaves, so you have room to play with what you set on top.
