This product is a sophisticated teak laminated wood, distinguished by its unique construction which includes a rubber insert between each plank. This innovative design not only enhances the durability and moisture resistance of the flooring but also provides additional stability and comfort underfoot. The blend of teak’s natural water-resistant properties with the practicality of the rubber inserts makes Navy Lam an exemplary choice for those seeking a blend of elegance, safety, and longevity in their bathroom flooring.
