Why choose Palio by Karndean Core flooring?

With its premium 6.5mm thickness and 0.5mm wear layer, Palio Core offers the ultimate in durability and authentic appearance. The click-lock installation is DIY-friendly, whilst the waterproof construction and 20-year warranty provide peace of mind for years to come.

How is Palio Core installed?

Palio Core features an advanced click-lock system requiring no adhesives or separate underlay. Planks and tiles click together securely, with the substantial thickness providing excellent stability. Professional installation is optional but can ensure optimal results in complex layouts.

What formats are available in Palio Core?

Palio Core offers planks, tiles, and herringbone formats, with many designs available in multiple configurations. This versatility allows you to create unique floor layouts, mixing formats for feature areas or maintaining consistency throughout your home.

Is Palio Core suitable for commercial use?

Whilst primarily designed for residential use, Palio Core’s premium thickness and durable wear layer make it suitable for light commercial applications. The 20-year residential warranty demonstrates the confidence in this floor’s long-lasting performance.

Where can Palio Core be installed?

Thanks to its waterproof properties and robust construction, Palio Core is suitable for every room in your home. The premium thickness makes it ideal for ground-floor installations, whilst the acoustic properties benefit upstairs rooms equally well.

Palio fitting formats explained

Four ways to lay a Palio floor — pick the format that fits your room, your subfloor and your skill level.

Palio Essenza Gluedown

Creative, made-to-measure layouts

Palio Essenza is a gluedown collection that lets you be creative with laying patterns — add design strips for a grouted effect, or pair planks with matching herringbone for a seamless room-to-room look.

Palio LooseLay Place & Go

Friction-grip backing, lifts and re-lays

Palio LooseLay uses weight and friction to secure planks and tiles firmly in place. Where underfloor access is needed, or a plank becomes damaged, it lifts and replaces in seconds — fitting tight to walls without removing skirting or leaving an expansion gap.
