Terra Mater NuCore Excellence Tranquil Laminate Flooring
Tranquil is an aged-wood design that blends rich amber and honey tones with delicate grain for warmth, depth and lasting character. NuCore Excellence is a 12mm laminate with an AC4 light-commercial wear rating, an E1-rated HDF core and an embossed-in-register surface, in long 2250mm boards.
Golden and honey tones add warmth, which helps rooms that get little direct sun feel inviting. Tranquil pairs well with white or cream walls, olive and forest greens, natural stone and warm brass or timber accents.

Where to use it
NuCore suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, studies and kitchens. Its AC4 rating also makes it suitable for light commercial spaces such as offices and consulting rooms. Laminate isn’t recommended for bathrooms, laundries or other wet areas.
Installation and care
NuCore is installed as a floating floor over an underlay on a flat, dry subfloor. Choose an underlay to suit your subfloor and any strata acoustic requirements; we can recommend one. Clean with a broom or vacuum and a well-wrung damp mop, and avoid wet mopping and steam cleaners. See our installation guides.

Tranquil FAQs
What does AC4 mean?
It is the abrasion class under the European EN 13329 laminate standard. AC4 is rated for busy homes and light commercial use, while AC5 is rated for heavy commercial use.
Can I put NuCore Excellence Tranquil in a kitchen?
Yes. NuCore has a water-resistant surface that handles everyday spills if they are wiped up promptly. It isn’t recommended for bathrooms, laundries or other wet areas.
Do I need an underlay?
Yes. Laminate is installed as a floating floor over an underlay. We can recommend one to suit your subfloor and any strata acoustic requirements.
How many cartons do I need?
Each carton covers 1.755m² (4 boards). Measure your floor area, add about 10% for cuts and wastage, then divide by 1.755. For example, a 30m² room needs 30 × 1.1 ÷ 1.755 = 18.8, so 19 cartons.
