Product Description
Create bright, modern interiors with the clean, airy tones of Kronotex Excel Polar Oak, an 8mm AC4 laminate floorthat delivers contemporary style, everyday durability, and outstanding value. Available now at FloorStore Direct, Ireland’s leading destination for laminate flooring, Polar Oak is the ideal solution for homeowners and professionals who want a light oak look that makes rooms feel larger and fresher.
Polar Oak features a pale, gently brushed oak décor with cool undertones and subtle grain movement that captures the minimalist appeal of Scandinavian and coastal design. It’s a brilliant choice for open-plan living, rental properties, new builds, and renovation projects where natural light and a neutral palette matter. Pair it with white walls, greige cabinetry, black metal accents, or soft textiles for a calm, design-led finish.
Built in Germany by Kronotex, a brand known worldwide for precision and performance, the Excel range combines style with strength. The AC4 wear rating means Polar Oak is engineered to withstand heavy domestic use and light commercial traffic—perfect for busy family spaces like kitchens, halls, and living rooms. The 8mm core provides stability underfoot while keeping installation straightforward over quality underlay.
Installation is fast and tidy thanks to the tried-and-trusted Kronotex click system. Boards lock securely, producing tight joints that help the floor sit flat and look professionally fitted, whether the job is handled by a tradesperson or a confident DIY installer. Maintenance is simple: sweep, vacuum, and occasionally damp mop—no sanding, sealing, or refinishing required as with solid wood.

Recommended Underlay
The underlay you choose for your new floor can be just as important as the floor itself as this is what will determine the feel and noise level under your foot. Furthermore if you have underfloor heating, the underlay you choose will determine the level of heat conductivity with some underlays allowing for a quicker heat transfer than others. Because of this, getting the right underlay is hugely important. You can view our entire underlay collection here.
Cleaning & Maintenance Guide
The cleaning and maintenance of our Kronotex laminate floor is pretty much the same as with all Laminate Flooring. A sweep of a brush is all it should take to remove light dirt from your floor. For mopping, it is important you use a damp mop rather than a wet mop. If your floor is too wet, over time it may cause issues from water penetrating the joints. We advise the use of a PH neutral floor cleaner to ensure no damage to the floor. Also a spin mop or micro fibre mop should ensure the floor is not being overly wet.
