Quantum X™ Technology

A coveted symbol of beauty and longevity, diamonds are one of nature’s hardest surfaces. With their unrivaled strength, real diamonds are the key ingredient in Quantum X™ Technology Wear Layer, which results in unparalleled protection the floors we offer. The double UV Fade coating ensures the product is flame/stain/scratch/ indent resistant so your floor stays looking as good as it did when it was installed.

AuthenTex™ Finish

AuthenTex™ Finish combines high definition imagery with an Embossed in Register (EIR) to expertly recreate the look and feel of natural hardwood. Unlike many flooring products that are manufactured with random or no embossing, AuthenTex perfectly traces the wood grain to create indentation where needed and provides a stunningly realistic finish. Unlike smooth floors that lack embossing, the AuthenTex finish also provides a level of slip resistance for added safety, as the textured surface is easier to traverse. By combining the timeless look of classic high-end hardwood with the benefits of modern flooring, the result is a surface that feels as luxurious as it looks.

Click Locking System

The Durato locking system was created with feedback from commercial flooring mechanics working alongside two patent holders. The system was further refined through partnerships with tools makers, experimenting with different angles and thicknesses to improve installer experiences. The result is a unique cutting tool profile that performs better in the field. All Durato Floors are made to a higher standard. We believe better ingredients, ingenuity, processes and after sales support is the key to successful flooring installations.

IXPE PAD

IXPE is the newest advanced cross-linked foam technology designed to provide supreme sound reduction, shock absorption and advance moisture protection. All Durato floors come with the IXPE pad already adhered to the back of each plank for easy installation as well as providing a healthier, softer, and quieter living space.
