Quick-Step Eligna Newcastle Oak Brown laminate flooring has a deep brown oak effect with rich grain and softly contrasting knots. The darker colour adds definition beside pale walls and cabinetry. The narrow boards give the oak pattern a clear scale, with square edges keeping the overall surface continuous.
The 8mm boards have a moisture-resistant HDF core, Scratch Guard surface protection and HydroSeal technology for resistance to surface water. Eligna is rated AC4 and Class 32 for domestic and moderate commercial use. Its square edges meet without bevelled grooves for a continuous appearance.
Each plank measures 156 × 1380mm and fits with the Uniclic click system over a suitable laminate underlay. A pack contains eight planks and covers 1.722m². The floor is priced per m² and supplied in complete packs, with the calculator showing the total coverage and order value.
Newcastle Oak Brown is a good choice when you want a darker oak floor with character. It suits kitchens, dining spaces and living rooms with contrasting light furniture.
Suitable for indoor living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, hallways and kitchens, as well as moderate commercial applications within the Class 32 specification.
Bathrooms are suitable when the floor is installed and sealed to Quick-Step’s wet-area instructions. Use the specified compressible Foamstrip and Hydrokit at the perimeter, profiles and penetrations, plus Hydrostrip where required for matching skirting or scotia. Not suitable for showers, wet rooms with floor drains, saunas, pool areas or outdoor use.
Combine the deep brown with warm white, cream or muted green. Brass fittings and textured upholstery add warmth.
HydroSeal protects against surface moisture. Eligna has a 24-hour standing-water limit under the manufacturer’s conditions. Remove spills promptly and follow the full installation and care instructions. This protection does not cover flooding, plumbing leaks or moisture rising from the subfloor.
Warranty: Quick-Step provides a lifetime residential warranty, defined in its conditions as a maximum of 65 years, and a 10-year residential water-resistance warranty. Commercial cover is five years under the standard conditions. Eligibility, exclusions, fitting and maintenance requirements apply. Read the complete Quick-Step laminate warranty.
Each pack contains eight planks and covers 1.722m². Enter your required area in the Timberwharf calculator to see the number of full packs, total area supplied and order total.
Allow for cuts and waste when planning the floor. A 10% allowance is a useful starting point for a straightforward plank layout; your fitter should confirm the allowance for your room shape. Add the allowance once and order the full project quantity together.
Preparation and fitting: acclimatise unopened packs flat for at least 48 hours in the installation area, at 15–25°C and 30–85% relative humidity. The subfloor must be dry, sound and suitably level. Use a suitable laminate underlay and the specified moisture barrier where required. Keep the floor floating, with expansion space as instructed; do not trap it beneath fixed kitchen units or other permanent fittings.
Underfloor heating and cooling: suitable with compatible low-temperature water or electric systems and the correct floor build-up. Keep the finished floor surface at or below 27°C. Follow the heating-system and Quick-Step commissioning instructions, choose an appropriate underlay and change temperatures gradually. Floor cooling requires dew-point and condensation control.
Cleaning: vacuum or sweep with a soft head, then clean with a well-wrung microfibre mop and a suitable laminate cleaner. Remove spills promptly, use entrance mats and protect furniture feet. Do not use a steam cleaner on Eligna. Do not sand, oil or wax the laminate surface.
Eligna is tested to EN 13329 with an AC4 abrasion rating. Its thermal resistance is 0.055m²K/W before adding an underlay. Fire classification is Cfl-s1 with Quick-Step underlays. The flooring is antistatic, and the technical sheet lists EU Ecolabel, PEFC and Nordic Ecolabel certification.
AC4 describes abrasion resistance; it is different from the appearance grades used for real wood. Class 32 describes the intended use level. Select the underlay and complete floor build-up to suit the room, subfloor and heating system.
What is Quick-Step Eligna Newcastle Oak Brown?
Newcastle Oak Brown is an 8mm straight plank laminate in Quick-Step’s Eligna collection. It has a deep brown oak effect with rich grain and softly contrasting knots, with a decorative wood-effect surface over an HDF core.
How large are the planks?
Each plank measures 156mm wide × 1380mm long × 8mm thick. The slim plank format creates a neat, continuous layout.
How many planks and square metres are in a pack?
Each pack contains eight planks and covers 1.722m². The calculator rounds the required area up to complete packs.
Is Eligna waterproof?
HydroSeal provides resistance to surface water, with a 24-hour standing-water limit under the manufacturer’s warranty conditions. Correct wet-area sealing is essential. Remove spills promptly; this does not cover flooding, plumbing leaks or moisture beneath the floor.
Can I use it in a kitchen or bathroom?
Yes, when installed and sealed to Quick-Step’s instructions. It is not suitable for showers, rooms with floor drains, saunas or pool areas.
Can it be fitted over underfloor heating?
Yes, with a compatible low-temperature system and suitable underlay. The finished floor surface must not exceed 27°C, and the full commissioning instructions must be followed.
Does the floor have bevelled edges?
No. Eligna has square edges with no bevels or grooves, creating a continuous appearance across the floor.
Can I sand or oil the floor?
No. Eligna is a finished laminate surface, not a sandable timber wear layer. Names such as Matt Oiled or Varnished describe the design appearance; they do not mean the laminate needs oiling or varnishing. Use suitable laminate cleaning products.
