Terra Mater NuCore Extreme Lamskin Laminate Flooring
Lamskin is a mid-tone design with real depth of colour, a classic grain pattern and subtle knots that add character and warmth. NuCore Extreme is the toughest laminate in Terra Mater’s range: 12mm boards with an AC5 heavy-commercial wear rating, a CARB 2 compliant HDF core and an embossed-in-register surface.
A mid-brown floor is forgiving day to day because it hides dust, sand and pet hair better than very pale or very dark floors. Lamskin suits traditional, Federation and mid-century styles and sits comfortably with both white and deeper wall colours.

Where to use it
NuCore suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, studies and kitchens. Its AC5 heavy-commercial rating also makes it suitable for high-traffic spaces such as offices, shops and showrooms. 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.

Lamskin FAQs
What does AC5 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 Extreme Lamskin 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 1.698m² (4 boards). Measure your floor area, add about 10% for cuts and wastage, then divide by 1.698. For example, a 30m² room needs 30 × 1.1 ÷ 1.698 = 19.4, so 20 cartons.
