    Individual character

    With a variety of embossing types in the

    collection, each Allura tile or plank range

    has its own individual character and design

    quality. Some are created with digital print

    techniques; others use innovative inks to

    create stunning visuals. The registered

    embossed wood designs are created to

    provide an added depth of realism.

    The outstandingWood collection

    Collection concept:

    faithful to the woods that inspired them

    All LVT ranges include a basic wood design. This gave

    us the perfect incentive to extend customer choice

    enormously with a Wood collection that excels in terms

    of depth, detail, character and renement.

    Alluras Wood designs were born out of the pursuit of

    three design goals: meeting the needs of architects,

    interior designers: end users and facility managers with:

    Authentic woods that are recognised by all Traditional woods often found in classic settings

    A new category of modern and abstract woods

    In its design quality and diversity, Forbo Allura

    represents a complete and comprehensive oering.

    The colour variations within the Wood collection make

    it easy to mix, match and combine. The use of realistic

    plank sizes and a variety of embossing types from a

    traditional wood-tic embossing to a more pronounced

    relief, plus a unique (and registered) embossed range

    that accentuates knots and veins ensures that the

    appearance of the Allura Woods stays faithful to the

    timbers upon which the designs are based.

    Unique production process

    All Allura designs are derived from 4-metre-wide

    cylinders measuring 1.5 metres in circumference.

    This provides unrivalled design freedom because no

    plank or tile is alike, just like its real-life equivalent.The calandered production method delivers a format

    that is extremely dimensionally stable, while the proven

    Forbo nishing technique gives a natural matt nish.

    Finally, modern ink technology, ultrasonic cutting and

    meticulous bevelling techniques ensure a truly life-like

    collection.

    Authentic woods - oaks

    Doroth Kessels: Oak wood is an all-time favourite around the world and is known for

    its authentic radiance. The colour palette weve used covers both conventional as well

    as modern, including gradations of grey. In order to create a characteristic oak series,

    we developed an outspoken relief and a matt nish.

    adapted to reect what is typical for each type of wood.

    Modern and abstract woods

    Doroth Kessels: Our aim with this abstract wood type is to give a new spin on theatmosphere wood can create, translated into contemporary fashion. It is not about

    realism but about a new interpretation of the character of wood in which the mix of

    realism and fantasy creates a new, unexpected visual.

    The outstanding Stone collection

    The Allura Stone collection symbolises everything our

    design team stands or: daring, sophisticated and

    contemporary. A match or the ideas you have in mind

    or the interiors you dream o creating. The collection is

    thereore based on current trends that have been

    translated into designs such as concrete, metal tile, slate

    and natural stone, with each design available in a range

    o colours:

    Modern stone designs that translate strongly into

    interior spaces

    Classic slates and natural stone that bring a touch o

    class

    Hardwearing ceramics that mimic traditional and

    terrazzo foors

    For the slate design, we also developed an embossing

    structure that captures the realistic look and eel

    expressed by traditional slate tiles deep, and with a

    matt nish.

    An extra addition to the Stone collection is a special

    range o hard-wearing tiles: Allura ceramics. Their

    homogenous construction, including innovative chip

    mixes and design eects that mimic terrazzo, concrete

    and granite fooring types, delivers a perect solution

    with all the benets o ease o installation, cleaning and

    maintenance while still looking antastic.

    The Shades, available in our colours, are a distinctiveelement in the Allura collection: just combine two or

    more colours and design a unique foor.

    The range eatures warm and traditional aesthetics as

    well as modern and expressive visuals that meet a wide

    range o interior settings. Stunning designs that deserve

    to be placed on the foor.

    Natural stone and concrete oors

    Doroth Kessels: Stone designs are

    always more dicult to create. We have

    deliberately opted for modern stone

    visuals, staying away from traditional

    marble and sandstone, which can often

    look like cheap copies of the real thing.

    We like to show movement in our stone

    designs by using bevelled edges and

    including opportunities for grout strips

    and colour accents that create realistic

    results.

    Slate and metal tiles

    Doroth Kessels: Our aim here was to bring the slate-look up to date. We succeeded in

    this by using a very solid design combined with a specially developed slate embossing

    on top. This characteristic, matt and monolithic product is slate at its best. For the metal

    tile we went for a subtle metallic shine with hints of corrugated copper and iron.

    The outstanding Abstract collection

    The Abstracts range represents a unique body of work

    within Allura. There is simply no comparable product

    available today. For the Abstracts, we took high-tech,

    digitally printed designs, textile creations and metal-like

    designs and combined them into an eye-catching genre

    within the whole oering.

    To achieve what we were after we pioneered digital

    printing technology, again derived from 4-metre-widesheet, to create unprecedentedly lively, fresh and diverse

    colours. This collection is about mixing and matching to

    create endless combinations encompassing lines and

    uni-coloured tiles.

    The Wave and Weave products have a more soft and

    organic design that is based on textiles visually

    enhanced by a soft gloss eect. The metal-like designs

    have colours that are inspired by metallics in various

    shades, with some enjoying an added glitter eect.

    Most of these high-end designs are only available in

    Allura Premium. Some metallic eects are also available

    in high-end Allura 0.55 mm quality.

    Allura, the innovative LVT collection

    Experience Forbo technology

    at work

    The Allura LVT collection has been

    developed in-house by Forbos own R&D

    team. Combining customer insight with

    technological know-how, we set out to

    make a unctional product with high

    perormance characteristics in each layer

    o the tiles construction. Each layer in an

    Allura tile is designed to perorm a specic

    unction. All Allura Tiles are produced at

    one o our state-o-the-art European

    production acilities.

    Glass eece not mass

    The Allura story begins with a glass feece

    carrier at the centre o the tile. This has a

    unique dual unction:

    Improving dimensional stability and

    stiness

    Providing increased general stability

    and the necessary fexibility by allowing

    or tension release

    Thanks to the glass feece carrier, Allura

    tiles require less ll-out or added mass to

    deliver the same perormance. Every layer

    has a unction so the nal tile has

    everything necessary and nothing that is

    not. The tile is well balanced and will

    remain so during its lietime. The result is a

    tile that is easier to install, a tile that

    demonstrates exceptional dimensional

    stability and none o the shrinkage oten

    experienced with other LVT tiles.

    Double calandered supremacy: backing

    and top layer

    Alluras backing and top layer are made

    using our unique calander technique.

    Applied under extreme pressure, these

    layers ensure the optimum balance and

    strength o the tile. The top layer provides

    the surace nish and is the main

    component in ensuring the products

    durability, especially when combined withForbos exclusive PUR lacquering

    technique.

    Diferentiated embossing on Forbos

    exclusive design

    Dierent woods or stones appear, well,

    dierent so why approach an LVT

    product as i one look ts all? Forbo Allura

    includes a range o embossing types in

    wood and stone. These have dierent

    structures and depths that match the

    style design or which it is used. In the

    Pine series, or example, the embossing

    structure matches the underlying print to

    deliver the optimum realistic eect. Allura

    eatures dierent embossing types, and

    because we develop all our designs and

    embossing structures ourselves or use

    exclusively by Forbo, we can guarantee an

    optimum match and unique results, rom

    digital print to innovative ink techniques.

    Unique bevelling and sizing

    Forbos ultrasonic cutting equipment

    makes it easy to bevel foor coverings to

    create the most realistic look. The

    bevelling is natural and sharp and does

    not leave any disturbing glossy edges on

    the tile or plank ater cutting. To urtheremphasise the natural look, we use

    dierent sizes o planks and tiles. Based on

    the design, the appropriate size is chosen

    to, again, create the most natural and

    realistic eect.

    Design and digital print

    Our traditional woods series is made using

    4-metre-wide cylinders that provide a

    unique design without repeating the

    pattern. Going a step urther, we also use

    beyond government regulations and

    requirements and we see investments

    in people, processes and products that

    urther improve our environmental

    perormance as investments or our

    uture, not a cost o doing business. We

    use independent Lie Cycle Assessments

    to constantly seek ways to measure and

    minimise the environmental impact o

    our products rom raw material

    Sample take-backOne example o our commitment to

    sustainability is our sample take-back

    programme. Samples enable decision-

    makers to experience the beauty o our

    products. But these samples are oten

    only used once. Rather than throwing

    them away, we have launched a sample

    take-back programme.
