Quick Step Laminate Flooring has changed the face of flooring forever. With a flooring-for-dummies design, the Quick Step Uniclic ranges are accessible to even the clumsiest laminate flooring installation novice. The real wood looks, textures and tints are so realistic, that the neighbors are likely to think that you had a team of yesteryear's artisans working their fingers to the bone on your new real wood floors. Instead, you will secretly know that it actually was a hubby and wife team toiling for little less than a day with the help of a few boxes of Quick Step Laminate Flooring...

What gives Quick Step Laminate Flooring its unique looks? Why is this range proudly displayed in upper-class homes all over the world? Why is it first on many an interior designer's top-rated flooring list? Apart from the quality inner core and the Uniclic design, the finishes of Quick Step floors spill the beans about the secrets behind this company's remarkable success.

1. Authentic

Have you ever seen two pieces of wood that are identical? Most likely not. Just as no two humans are exactly alike, every piece of wood comes with a uniquely patterned grain and texture. The Authentic Quick Step Laminate Flooring finish is a surface coating that highlights the motif of the wood pattern. You will see the effect in the grain lines of an oak finish, the matte looks of maple, and the gloss of a cherry laminate floor. Quick Step Authentic brings the diversity of nature right into your home.

2. Contour Artisanal

With Contour Artisanal, Quick Step Flooring brings the end-result of a laminate flooring installation even closer to the real thing. Each and every plank gets the recessed edge treatment that emulates hand-scraped floors. You can't get much closer to nature than this!

3. Natural Variation

What sets today's laminate flooring apart from the first efforts, is the variations incorporated into the designs. Previously the same patterns were repeated over and over again, giving a 'plastic' look to the floors. With Quick Step Laminate Flooring's Natural Variation patterning, this problem disappears. Each design comes with 18 or 54 wood grain patterns, combined with a diverse range of natural tints. This mimics the natural appearance of wood almost perfectly.

4. SML 3-Optic

Quick Step Laminate Flooring takes convenience and a real wood appearance one step further in the Elegance range. Here the clever flooring folks give you the perfect balance of three ready-cut plank lengths (small,  medium and large) in each pack. What can be easier than this? By using this line, you are virtually guaranteed that the end result of your flooring project will be as close as possible to the real thing. You can just click and go. No worries about producing the right number of each length.

5. Micro-Perspective 4

With Micro-Perspective 4 the Elegance small planks and the Quadra natural stone range get a further reality dose from the Quick Step Laminate Flooring guys. The finest grooves of the planks and tiles are treated to the same design process as the surface layer. The result is an extremely natural look.

6. Perspective 4

This technology subtly creates a v-groove as you click the Quick Step Laminate Flooring planks together. In addition, the beveled sides add to the realistic finish. Again the color and design of the surface is repeated in the grooves, adding to the real wood appearance.

7. Country Surface

With the Country Surface finish, Quick Step floors manages to instill qualities in its planks previously associated with artisans and years of craftsmanship. The master touch is clear in each carefully constructed Quickstep Laminate Flooring plank.

8. Living Surface

True to its name, this finish adds a wonderful woodgrain structure to the rustic Quick Step Laminate Flooring designs. It is also responsible for the natural finish of the Uniclic ceramic tile ranges.

9. Natural Authentic

Innovation is a Quick Step Laminate Flooring trademark. Thanks to the unique Natural Authentic finish, you not only see real down-to-earth woodgrain in the designs, it also adds a more realistic texture to the planks. This is accomplished without doing away with the durability of the surface. If you were under the impression that laminates are not for you, touch a Natural Authentic finish plank and instantly experience a change of mind...

10. Accessories

The finishes are only as good as your final touches with the quality, decorative accessories and moldings Quick Step Laminate Flooring has available in abundance. Installation of the moldings is easy with the Quick Step clip system. The color palette tones in with your choice of flooring.
