    When tasked with upgrading the flooring at Millies Café, we faced the challenge of finding a product that not only met the aesthetic and functional demands but also stood out in quality and durability. 

    The brief:

    - Is rated for commercial use
    - Is waterproof (not just resistant)
    - Is comfortable underfoot
    - Can absorb the clatter of lots of busy staff and customers’ shoes
    - Could still produce an outstanding visual aesthetic
    - Can be easily to installed for their tight timeline.
    - All the while keeping within a budget!

    We considered multiple different laminate ranges for Millies Café,  however we also needed flooring that had a busier look to suit the cafe atmosphere while remaining a comfortable surface to walk on. 

    Here is why we recommended our Strata Herringbone product:

    Impervious to moisture: Strata Herringbone is made of a non-absorbent material, with a jointing system that completely stops any moisture ingress.


    19dB acoustic rating: The flooring is a WPC (Wood Plastic Composite), which means it has an open cell structure which is significantly softer and quieter underfoot than other comparable products.


    Simple drop-lock 400 installation system: meaning in the case of Millie’s Café, the flooring was able to be installed quickly. 95m² in a total of 24 man-hours (1.5 days with a team of two people)
    Consistent Pattern: The Isocore structure of the flooring facilitates some very tight machining tolerance and enables the products to keep its continuous pattern over large areas.
    15 year commercial warranty 


    Due to the clear advantages of using Strata Herringbone flooring, the client decided to trust our experts at Woodland Lifestyle and proceeded with a Multilayer Herringbone design. The end result was a happy client, happy designer, happy staff and most importantly very happy café visitors!
