Buckingham- AQUAPLUS ROYAL 8mm SPC Vinyl
Buckingham- AQUAPLUS ROYAL 8mm SPC Vinyl
Royal 8mm Collection
Buckingham. Quiet underfoot, tough on top.
An 8 mm rigid core vinyl plank with an attached IXPE sound pad and a tough UV-lacquer ceramic finish. 100% waterproof, FloorScore® certified, and rated AC5 for heavy everyday wear.
Waterproof, on any grade.
The rigid structure stays stable on, above, or below grade. Install it in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements without worry.
Built to take a beating.
A 0.5 mm / 20 mil wear layer plus an AC5 rating shrug off scratches and daily traffic. Backed by 30-year residential / 5-year light-commercial limited warranties.
Quiet pad, built in.
An attached 1.5 mm IXPE acoustic pad comes standard — IIC 78 / STC 74 for softer steps and quieter rooms. No extra underlayment needed.
Certified clean air.
FloorScore® certified for indoor air quality, with a deep-textured, UV-lacquer ceramic finish and 4-sided painted bevel for a realistic, low-sheen (5–6% gloss) look.
Buckingham, shown installed.
Click. Lock. Float.
Royal 8mm installs as a floating floor — no nails, no glue — over most flat, sound subfloors. The drop-lock click system goes together fast. Prefer to leave it to the pros? Supply & installation is available across Kitchener-Waterloo with a free in-home estimate.
