What makes Duracore unique?
BEAUTIFUL ROBUST EASY
Duracore® is a beautiful high-performance hybrid vinyl floor blending the best of science, technology and design to meet the needs of New Zealand's residential and commercial projects.
Rigorously tested abroad and right here in New Zealand, Duracore is 100% waterproof, highly durable, scratch, shock & dent resistant, rigid & stable, noticeably quiet and suitable for underfloor heating.
Rich colours, varied looks, a range of bevels and the unique appearance of wood give your Duracore floor a natural look that feels honest. Mastering the character of wood is in the finer details; just the right matte finish, precise EIR printing, generous plank variation and brushed textures that feel so good beneath your feet.
That attention to detail takes time & effort - at Duracore®, we think it's worth it.
100% Not Timber Floors
ENGINEERED STONE CORK & VINYL
Duracore® is designed for New Zealand. It's as robust and rugged as it is beautiful.
We build floors that handle the kiwi lifestyle and all we can throw at it.
Pool water, football boots, pet paws, art days, baking mishaps, hallway cricket, briefcases dropped at the door and a red wine dropped on the floor.
No worries. No worries at all.
Duracore has developed 3 key ranges to tackle the most challenging of project requirements. Choose from DuracoreLifestyle, DuracoreUltra or our award-winning acoustic floor, DuracoreSilent.
At the Core of it
HIGH-PERFORMANCE HYBRID FLOORS
High performing & packed with innovative technology, Duracore® floors are built to meet the demands of kiwis both at home and in the office. That technology is rigorously tested too, overseas as well as right here at home.
We are right deep in research & product innovation, always looking to refine our ranges while never compromising on the things Duracore customers truly value;
Exceptional durability, waterproof for every room in the house, genuine acoustic advantage, affordable & easy to look after.
Clever worry-free floors you can depend on.
DuracoreSilent 21dB Acoustic Reduction
Exceeding NZBC G6 - An Acoustic hybrid floor like no other
If you’re building or fitting out an apartment, the acoustic requirement usually dictates the floor before the look does. NZBC Clause G6 sets a minimum Impact Insulation Class of IIC 55 between tenancies. Most floors reach it only with a separate acoustic underlay layered underneath.
DuracoreSilent® reduces sound transfer between concrete tenancy floors by 21dB — IIC 68, verified by independent third-party acoustic testing, and comfortably clear of what G6 requires. You can expect similar ratings over Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) midfloor construction.
The performance is engineered into the patented acoustic core & cork backing, not added underneath, which means one product, one installation, one specification.
This level of acoustic performance in a 7.5mm hybrid plank has not previously existed in New Zealand.
In association with Ecodure, the range took Hybrid Floor of the Year at the ATFA awards, and repeated at ATFA 2025.
Cork Over Plastic
SUSTAINABLE WARM QUIET
By using cork on the back of every single Duracore plank we make, we create a premium experience and save 15kg of plastic across a 100m2 floor in the process.
Cork is 100% natural, sustainable, acoustically excellent, warm, shock absorbing, repels moisture and is naturally resistant to mould & pests.
Cork is a renewable resource. Only the bark of the cork oak tree is harvested, a process that doesn't harm the tree and allows the bark to regenerate every nine years. The manufacturing process is also energy-efficient and generates almost no waste.
