For homeowners looking for a premium timber floor with strong visual impact, Faro delivers the warmth and authenticity of real wood in a refined engineered construction.
Technology, Durability and Stability
Quick Step Faro is engineered to perform reliably under Australian living conditions.
Built with a 14mm multi-ply engineered timber core, the flooring offers excellent dimensional stability, making it well suited for the changing temperature and humidity conditions typical in Australian homes. The construction also makes the floor compatible with hydronic underfloor heating systems.
With the support of Quick-Step’s advanced flooring technology, Faro features a water-resistant surface coating and a watertight click-lock installation system, helping protect the floor from everyday moisture and spills.
The surface is finished with multiple layers of durable protective lacquer, improving resistance to wear and scratches while maintaining the natural look of timber. The brushed texture enhances the timber grain and also helps prevent dust and dirt from becoming trapped on the surface, making the floor easier to maintain.
With a 25-year residential warranty, Quick Step Faro combines the beauty of real timber with the reliability expected from a premium engineered flooring system.
