This luxury vinyl plank flooring captures the spirit of Australia
Published
This reimagined classic by Godfrey Hirst offers a modern oak-inspired colour palette for a new standard in vinyl flooring.
In the world of commercial and multi-residential specification, there is so often a tension between the practical and the beautiful, with the pressures of budgets, lead times, supply chains, and user requirements outweighing the allure of the aesthetic. Nowhere is this more apparent than in flooring, where the importance of a product’s function can mean form is deprioritised. Recognising this, one of the sector’s leading brands has released a solution that resolves this tension, releasing a new range that brings a luxurious edge to the vinyl plank market.
GH Commercial presents Aquila Wood vinyl plank by Godfrey Hirst, a range that has all the benefits of vinyl plank flooring but in an elevated, evocative form. As a new and improved version of their archival Aquila product, the vinyl plank is a luxury addition to the commercial flooring market. Inspired by the Australian landscape, the range is available in a variety of modern-oak tones and colourways, with both Blackbutt and Spotted Gum colourways capturing the richness and warmth of the nation’s native flora.
Durable and easy to maintain, the Aquila Wood vinyl plank features Micro Bevel edges, and has a water and scratch resistant surface, a P3 slip rating, and is quiet underfoot; making it suitable for a multitude of commercial segments including retail, aged care, workplace and multi-residential design. While its look may echo native timbers, its affordability, ease of installation, and local stock makes it an ideal flooring solution for projects of any kind.
With the launch of this product, GH Commercial are opening up new design possibilities. From small office fitouts, to major multi residential builds, the Aquila Wood vinyl plank means elegant flooring is now within reach of even the most challenging briefs. Combining the benefits of a natural material with the function and performance of something man-made, the new range balances a designer’s wants with a project’s needs, allowing for the practical and the beautiful to co-exist.
As part of the GH Commercial brand house, Godfrey Hurst is backed by world-leading innovation, while their own 150 years of local history gives them a unique insight into the specific needs of Australia’s architects and designers. The Aquila Wood vinyl plank is the epitome of this relationship, balancing the practical requirements of specification with the beauty and form of Australia’s native landscapes.
