When choosing flooring, aesthetics and functionality go hand in hand. TrueGrout® technology revolutionizes modern flooring by delivering the realistic look of traditional grout without the mess or extended installation times. Whether you’re aiming for a luxurious tiled appearance or seeking to simplify maintenance, TrueGrout® offers an ideal solution that combines beauty and practicality.
What is TrueGrout® Technology?
TrueGrout® technology mimics the look of a genuine grout line, with a striking visual that divides the middle of each plank, simulating two tiles in one. Unlike conventional grouting, which can wear or discolor over time, the planks have a TrueGrout® “Shield,” a patented technology that is resistant to stains, wear, and fading. This innovative design ensures your flooring maintains its fresh appearance, providing long-term durability and resilience.
Key Features of TrueGrout® Technology
- DropLoc Installation: With TrueGrout®, installation is easy and mess-free. No glue, nails, or wet grout is required. You simply drop the planks into place, ensuring a seamless finish that can withstand immediate foot traffic. This also gives the ability to repair a plank in the middle of the floor without un-clicking from the closest wall.
- 100% Waterproof: TrueGrout technology is entirely waterproof, making it ideal for any room, including bathrooms and kitchens. The waterproof nature of these floors ensures longevity, even in moisture-prone areas.
- Scratch and Fade Resistance: With TrueGrout® Shield, grout lines and surfaces are not only easier to maintain than traditional grout, but also engineered to resist scratching, staining, and fading. This means your flooring maintains its pristine look longer, even in high-traffic areas.
- Attached Acoustical Pad: The addition of an acoustical pad enhances sound insulation and comfort underfoot. This feature not only makes your home quieter but also adds a soft feel when walking on your floors.
Velaris By Cobalt Surfaces
Inspired by the grandeur of Roman architecture, Velaris takes its name from the “velarium,” the ancient awnings that once covered amphitheaters like the Colosseum. In fact, the stones found in the Colosseum served as the inspiration for the stunning color palette used in Velaris flooring. This rich history adds a layer of storytelling to the product, providing designers with not only a beautiful flooring solution but also a meaningful backstory that connects with the legacy of Roman engineering and aesthetics.
TrueGrout® Technology: The Game-Changer
The heart of Velaris lies in its revolutionary TrueGrout® technology, which offers a grout line down the center of each plank, effectively simulating the appearance of two tiles in one. This dual-tile effect dramatically reduces installation time—cutting it in half compared to traditional porcelain tiles—making Velaris not just visually striking but highly efficient.
Unique Installation Patterns
One of Velaris’s most compelling features is its versatility in design. Unlike porcelain tile, which can be restrictive, TrueGrout® technology allows for creative and intricate installation patterns, including brick, monolithic, and 1/3 offset. These unique patterns add a dynamic visual appeal that can’t be easily replicated with traditional tile materials. Be sure to check out the installation video below for a full overview of the possibilities.
