Kährs, a Swedish manufacturer and distributor of flooring, introduces a new type of wood floor. Kährs Life is a range of wood floors with properties that are close to vinyl floors. The new Kährs Life Collection combines the best of two worlds, where the beauty of wood meets the practical performance of a vinyl floor.
Kährs of Sweden has been working with wood for over 160 years. Quality and innovation are close to the heart of the company, and for almost a century, Kährs has been delivering premium flooring beyond expectations. Today there is a strong trend towards more sustainable and natural wood floors, and also a trend towards wood flooring with high durability.
To meet this growing market demand, Kährs introduces the Life Collection, a new range of affordable wood flooring with outstanding durability and modern design, featuring new colors in line with today’s trends. Life even passes the tests for Class 33, i.e. Heavy Commercial Use, the highest standard of veneer flooring - meaning it withstands wear and tear while also offering outstanding impact resistance.
The innovative matte lacquer protects the floor, making it more dirt resistant and easy to clean while keeping the natural and beautiful wood feeling. The improved lacquer system provides waterproof properties on the surface of the product, so there is less worry about everyday spills.*

“We are excited to launch the new Kährs Life Collection of wood flooring into the US market. The products meet our high standards for quality while adhering to our strict environmental requirements. With its clean, contemporary looks, Life is perfect for the residential/remodel market as well as both light and heavy commercial applications – and the price point can't be beat!” said Sean Brennan, president Kährs US.
With a total thickness of 7 mm, Life is also ideal for renovation as it fits with most existing thresholds and doors. Due to the outstanding durability and the fact that it is made for Heavy Commercial Use, Life can be used in numerous places such as hotel rooms, conference areas, offices, homes, and summer houses. Life is available in different sizes, all of which are available in eight contemporary, stained colors and two natural choices, Pure Oak and Pure Walnut.
