Timeless herringbone design with a warm, luxurious wood look

Click or Dryback: which version should you choose?
Click PVC is suitable when you want to install the floor as a floating floor. The integrated IXPE underlay makes installation easier and provides extra acoustic comfort.
Dryback PVC is glued directly to a level subfloor. This version is particularly stable and has a lower thermal resistance, making it an excellent combination with underfloor heating.
The best option depends on the subfloor, how the room will be used, and how you want to install the floor.

Are you installing the herringbone floor yourself and have little or no experience? Allow for at least 10% cutting waste. In rooms with many corners or a complex installation plan, additional material may be advisable.
Porto Paris is sold exclusively by the full pack.
What else might you need?
For Dryback PVC you may need, depending on the existing subfloor:
- primer
- levelling compound
- PVC adhesive
- skirting boards
- transition profiles
With Click PVC a separate underlay is normally not required, as the IXPE underlay is already integrated.
You will find suitable flooring accessories below this page.
Porto Paris and underfloor heating
Both versions are suitable for underfloor heating.
The Dryback version has a thermal resistance of 0.04 m² K/W. The Click version comes to 0.06 m² K/W.
This allows Porto Paris to combine the luxurious look of herringbone with comfortable everyday use.
Maintaining Porto Paris PVC
PVC is easy to keep clean. Regular vacuuming and lightly damp mopping is usually sufficient.
First remove sand and grit while dry to prevent fine scratches, and preferably use a cleaning product suitable for PVC that does not leave a greasy or sticky residue.
Luxury herringbone for different interior styles
Porto Paris suits both modern and classic interiors. Combine the floor with light walls for a calm and spacious look, or use dark skirting boards, brass details, and warm materials for a bolder luxurious effect.
