Cast floor colors

Your floor helps determine the atmosphere and coziness of your home, but it should not be overpowering. A floor should provide a connection between walls and furniture, decoration and surroundings.

Determining the color for your cast floor

Choosing a color for your livingroom can be quite challenging. When you change the colour, you change the impression of the space. For instance, you can visually elevate or lower the ceiling just by giving the walls a lighter or darker shade.

Reducing or increasing is done in the same way with a PU cast floor. You can also visually adjust your floor area. This can be achieved by giving the skirtings the same color as the floor. It is best to use the same material as the floor itself. If you use a contrasting color of floor and wall, the skirting board will stand out all the more. In short, your floor is the basis of your interior.

There is a wide variety of colors for your casting floor.

Colors form an important part of the perception of the atmosphere, look and design of your interior. It is important to decide beforehand whether you will choose a mono cast floor, consisting of one color, or a mixture of two or more colors. That is how marble and concrete look effects are created.

During the production of the casting floor, the color is created and mixed under the PU resin. This ensures the best result and highest quality.

With white or very light colors, you should work with an Aliphatic cast floor. This type of polyurethane is better UV-resistant, so it won't turn yellow. Standard PUs will ultimately turn yellow and this doesn't look very nice on a clean white cast floor. That is why all PU cast floors are standard finished with a UV-resistant final layer, also called topcoat. In addition to the UV resistance of your cast floor, this also provides increased wear resistance.

What are popular PU casting floor colors?

All shades of grey are the most popular colors for a PU cast floor. In addition, we have noticed a diversity of soft beige or white shades popping up in recent years. But interior designers are creating new designs, setting trends in which the walls have to match the floors as well.

A white color tone will create a neutral effect and matches almost all types of materials and colors. A mid-grey color tone, creates a modern and industrial look.

Green colors refer to a bohemian lifestyle and create a more rustic look. You can also combine light wooden furniture to create a Scandinavian style, where the dark shades of the cast floor emphasize the lighter furniture.

Dark colors create a cozier effect and a cool look, especially if you can combine it with stained wood or contrast it with bright colors on the walls or curtains.
