It’s true: you definitely won’t find a quieter floor. Pure has a unique soft top layer that is not only incredibly comfortable to walk on. It also absorbs the noise in every room.

Over the past years, we have developed our unique Rigid Composite Board, or RCB. The RCB technology guarantees that there is little or no preparation needed. It goes over almost any existing floor. This patented formula also guarantees floor stability when temperature changes.

Choosing the right colours for your home.

But how do you know which colours work best?

BerryAlloc’s Harmony Lab will guide you to a flooring choice that is complementary to what you choose to implement in your interior project. This tool has analysed different colours together with the undertones of our floors in countless ways, providing a highly accurate method to determine the most compatible combinations. Here are some basic explanations and ground rules that you can easily implement to create a well-balanced interior.

Ocean 8 PA Select Sand Natural

Colour character

yellow

Although the colour of any floor may seem fairly obvious at first sight, there’s a whole layer of subtle undertones that’ll determine which colours work best with that particular floor – something that is especially apparent in natural wood designs. This underlying shade is the colour character of a floor.

These are the resulting colour groups:

orange green

yellow red

orange red purple blue green

blue

purple

Once you know the colour character, you’re able to take the next step in your interior project journey.

This chromatic colour wheel will guide you in your decisions.

Using contrasting colours means using colours that are directly opposite to the floor’s colour character on the chromatic colour wheel.

Using harmonious colours means using colours that are either the same colour as the floor’s colour character; or its neighbouring colour on the colour wheel.

If the floor has a yellow character, this means using variations of yellow, green, and orange in your interior. If it has a blue character, this means using variations of blue, green, and purple, and so on.

Responsible flooring solutions.

We truly care!

From Belgium to France to Norway. We always go that extra mile. Throughout BerryAlloc, we prioritise the joy and well-being of our employees, customers, and end-users. But there’s another stakeholder that’s equally as important. And that’s our planet.

Sustainability is an integral part of our DNA, from management practices to our production processes.

Why? Because we are wired to care and dedicated to act.

We take ownership and accept the responsibility to get things done. We are devoted to continuously reducing our impact and building a healthier environment. We don’t strive for perfection – instead, we work towards making you happy. And keeping our planet happy.

Connect 8 V4 Crush Brown Natural

Close to home What do labels such as “Made in Belgium”, “Made in Norway”, or “Made in France” mean to you? To us, they mean quality assurance, shorter transportation routes, and less CO2 emissions. They also mean we follow European norms and regulations, providing ethical and safe work environments.

We share the French love for quality: all our parquet products are made with love in France. The wood is locally sourced from fully regulated PEFC™-certified forests.

For over 20 years, we have been producing high-quality laminate in Belgium. The vinyl planks and tiles from our Pure and Live collections are also produced in Belgium

Inspired by Scandinavian nature and design, all our high pressure floors are designed and produced in Norway.

Volatile organic chemical compounds are a type of chemicals that are commonly present in products used in and around our homes and tend to vaporise into the atmosphere. Unfortunately, some chemicals in VOCs may have short and long-term adverse health effects, and are especially sensitive for individuals suffering from allergies, asthma, or experiencing thyroid issues. It is our goal to reduce the amount of VOCs in our products as much as possible.

VOCs can be found in all sorts of products used to build and maintain your home or commercial space: from cleaning supplies to air fresheners, to paint and varnishes, and yes, even your floors.

At BerryAlloc, we realise that VOC concentrations are consistently higher indoors, even though they are present everywhere you go. As your well-being is our highest priority, we avoid using materials that could cause any harm. We measure and verify the level of VOCs in our products through an externally accredited lab and comply with some of the strictest VOC regulations across several countries (requirements can differ depending on the focus of a particular regulation).

Wood: a natural choice Choosing a wooden floor means bringing nature into your home in both looks and materials. A wooden BerryAlloc floor also means you’re supporting responsibly sourced materials that help preserve nature. All our wood is sourced from sustainably managed forests and nearly all are PEFC™-certified.

PEFC™ certified wood

Wood dust: waste or valuable resource?

BerryAlloc are sourced from sustainably managed forests. Our PEFC™ certification proves that we meet the strictest environmental, social, and economic requirements for our wood. This means that the timber used for the production of our products:

Our Menen, Meaulne, and Lyngdal production sites produce wood-based flooring (parquet, laminate, and high pressure floors). As a result, we create significant amounts of saw and milling dust as a by-product. But there’s no way we would let that go to waste.

— Does not come from protected forests — Does not endanger protected species — Does not further contribute to deforestation — Does not negatively impact local communities

At our Menen site, the sawdust is used externally as Les Iconics Agedsites, Badiane an energy resource. In our Lyngdal andChêne Meaulne the sawdust is used both as an energy resource for the factories themselves, as well as one for the local community and neighbouring production sites.

Solid, high-quality materials

Our wood selection is always top-tier. All so that you can enjoy your naturally beautiful floor longer, without compromising on either quality or design. Our products carry a lifetime warranty for residential buildings, and a 10-year warranty for commercial buildings.

Wood recycling

To help achieve our goal of reducing the use of virgin materials, we continuously explore new ways to increase recycled content in our products, and we aim to further develop this in the future. The top layer of our high pressure floors range, for instance, consists of 30% recycled paper.

There are also small amounts of recycled paper present in our DPL (deep pressure laminate).

Thoughtful choices, sustainable results We select our materials using thoughtful and sustainable processes. To us, quality and recyclability are fundamental factors in our battle to eliminate waste. Not only that, but healthy materials are also essential in improving your well-being.

Solid, high-quality material

When it comes to material selection, we always choose top-tier materials. All so that you can enjoy your naturally beautiful floor longer, without compromising on either quality or design. Our products carry a lifetime warranty for residential buildings, and a 10-year warranty for commercial buildings.

Using less material

We aim to use as little material as possible in our products without compromising on quality. If we don’t need to use new resources, we won’t. That’s why we use 30% less material in our vinyl planks & tiles than most competitors. And that also brings an extra advantage to the table. The reduced product weight makes installation easier and lowers our overall environmental impact: during the procurement of raw materials, during production and transport to your store and home.

Win-win!

Recycled materials

To help achieve our goal of using fewer virgin materials, we continuously explore new ways to increase recycled content in our products, especially for the product core.

And we’ve already made great progress: our vinyl planks & tiles boards consist of almost 50% recycled content.

We’re also trying to reduce waste within the production sites too. It happens from time to time that raw materials, such as wood boards, aren’t fit for production. Since we want to maintain our high quality standards, we prefer not to use these materials. In the example of the wood boards, we work together with local sheltered employment to resize these and re-use them to protect our planks during product shipment.

Recyclable products

Our vinyl planks & tiles are 100% recyclable after use, without quality loss.

Healthy materials

We want you to stay happy and healthy. And we do not take this commitment lightly. The best way to ensure this, is to deliver products that do not contain suspicious nor potentially harmful substances.

All our products are phthalate-free, and our materials are 100% REACH* compliant. Why is this important? This EU regulation helps us protect your health and focus on your comfort. The result? All our floors meet the highest standards in terms of Indoor Air Quality and are proven to take care of your well-being.

Industry professionals have a high level of trust in our products, knowing they meet the highest standards. Our floors contribute to the improvement of their BREEAM and LEED (sustainability assessment for buildings) project ratings.
