Command Stability with Krono Swiss Grand Selection Origin Rock
If you are looking for a floor that embodies the strength and enduring beauty of natural stone but with the warmth and comfort of timber, look no further than the Krono Swiss Grand Selection Origin Rock. As Ireland’s leading specialists in premium surfaces, Floorstore Direct is proud to be the best place in Ireland to buy laminate flooring for those who demand uncompromising quality and bold, modern aesthetics.
The Origin Rock decor is a sophisticated masterpiece of grey-toned design. It features a smart, light-to-mid grey oak finish that provides a sleek, contemporary edge to any interior. Using advanced “Embossed-in-Register” (EIR) technology, the surface texture is synchronized perfectly with the wood grain, giving you a floor that looks and feels like genuine solid oak. It is the perfect foundation for a modern industrial loft, a sleek minimalist kitchen, or a busy family living room.
The Engineering of a Masterpiece: 14mm Origin
The Krono Swiss Origin collection is globally respected for its robust construction. This is not just a standard laminate wood floor; it is a heavy-duty architectural element designed to handle the toughest environments while maintaining its high-end appeal.
- Heavy-Duty 14mm Profile: The substantial thickness of these planks provides a solid, quiet feel underfoot. It eliminates the hollow “tap” associated with thinner laminates, offering superior acoustic insulation and stability that rivals real hardwood.
- Extra Long & Wide Planks: At over 2 metres long (2025mm) and 244mm wide, these XXL panels create a stunning, expansive look. This format reduces visible joints, making open-plan areas appear more seamless and luxurious.
- AC5 / Class 33 Durability: This is the highest abrasion rating available for residential and commercial use. It is virtually “life-proof”—highly resistant to scratches, impact, stains, and even the most energetic pets.
- 72-Hour Aquastop Technology: This water-resistant laminate can withstand spills and moisture for up to three days. It is a worry-free solution for kitchens, hallways, and even damp-prone entryways.

Ask a Question
1. Is this flooring suitable for bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes! The Origin range features advanced Aquastop technology and a low-swelling Q7-HDF core, making it water-resistant for up to 72 hours. While it is not "waterproof" in the sense that it can be submerged, it is perfectly suited for moisture-prone areas like kitchens, hallways, and bathrooms, provided spills are wiped up within a reasonable timeframe.
2. Can I install this floor over underfloor heating?
Absolutely. All 14mm Krono Swiss Grand Selection floors are fully compatible with both water-based and electric underfloor heating systems. Because of its 14mm thickness, it provides excellent thermal conductivity while maintaining structural stability, ensuring your home stays warm and efficient throughout the Irish winter.
3. How do I maintain the "Authentic" look of the floor?
Because of the AC5 durability rating, maintenance is incredibly simple. For daily cleaning, a quick sweep or vacuum (using a hard-floor setting) is all you need. For deeper cleaning, use a damp—not soaking wet—microfibre mop with a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid using wax, polish, or steam cleaners, as these can dull the specialized Embossed-in-Register (EIR) finish that gives the floor its realistic wood texture.
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.
Fitting Guidelines
In order for your new floor to perform to the best of its ability we advise using a skilled, professional fitter for the installation of your new floor. Prior to installation your floor must be checked to ensure it is level and free from moisture. Should there be any issues with this our levelling compounds and damp proof membranes are available here. It is vitally important, in particular with a floating floor that you do not fit any heavy objects (Such as fitted kitchens or islands) directly to the floor. An installation gap of 10-12mm must also be left around all 4 sides of the room including at doorways. Please refer to manufacturers guidelines for full installation instructions.
Cleaning & Maintenance Guide
The cleaning and maintenance of our Krono Swiss laminate flooring 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.
