Native Blackbutt Hybrid

Native Blackbutt is a honey to golden tan blackbutt look on our 9 mm board. The grain is long and straight, some boards are a shade paler or deeper, and thin dark gum veins are scattered through it for a more natural hardwood feel.

Compared with our other blackbutt looks

We have three blackbutt-look hybrid planks. Northern Blackbutt is a narrower 182 mm board in an even golden tan with very few veins. Classic Blackbutt is the 7 mm option. Native Blackbutt sits on the full 228 mm width and carries more character in the gum veins. It also comes as Native Blackbutt Herringbone for an entry or hallway. The colours are close, but we cannot guarantee an exact match between plank and herringbone, so we suggest comparing the samples in the showroom first.

Where it suits

The warm tone suits weatherboards, period homes and new builds where you want an Australian hardwood feel. It goes with white walls, black window frames and brass or matt black tapware. A honey mid tone hides dust better than a dark or near-white floor.

Specifications and care

1545 × 228 mm, 9 mm total: 7 mm SPC core, 0.5 mm wear layer, 2 mm attached acoustic underlay. Unilin click, floating, embossed surface, micro bevel. EN 685 domestic heavy and commercial light, P3 slip. Five boards per pack cover 1.761 m², 23 kg a pack. The board is highly water resistant, so it suits bathrooms and laundries, but not a shower recess or other areas with running water. Hybrid is not approved for underfloor heating; if you have it or plan to put it in, our engineered European oak is the floor approved for it. It cannot be sanded, so we recommend keeping a few spare boards. You'll find more under warm browns and in the hybrid range.
