The different layers are compressed to form a stable plank. This means that there are some ten times fewer volatile organic compounds than required under the E1 standard. Therefore Balterio laminate is just as healthy as real wood. Tips for your inTerior Play with contrasts Light laminate shades perfectly match dark painted areas. Dark floors stand out better in interiors with light walls and ceilings. Keep it airy The more you can see of your floor, the greater the spacious effect. So do not fill your interior with many small pieces of furniture or many small things- choose fewer, larger items. Narrow or wide? Narrow laminate planks create elegant refinement and a feeling of spaciousness. Wide planks on the other hand give your interior a more robust appearance. 100% belgian ! Balterio laminate is developed and produced in Belgium from where it is distributed across the whole world.

Why They chose balTerio Have a peek inside the homes of three families who installed Balterio laminate flooring and read why they chose Balterio. We visit a family on the Belgian coast, in north-east France and in the Czech Republic. Welcome to their homes! 9 10 Welcome to Vanessa and Bouziane’s home in Longwy, France Vanessa and her husband bouZiane opTed for balTerio for aesTheTic reasons. The resulT speaks for iTself. clear WhiTe laminaTe illuminaTes Their home. We visit Vanessa in Longwy, a municipality in the North East of France close to Belgium and Luxembourg. She lives with her husband and two daughters in a loft. “We moved here because of my job at the European Commission in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.” A house with a history Style emphasizes openness “We found this house on the Internet; it has its own story. Many years ago it was a printing business. Later it was turned into a restaurant. We saw the potential of the building straight away and were instantly attracted by the open space. We have been living in our loft for four years now.” The living area is quite large and leads into an open kitchen. The space bathes in light and this impression is heightened by the sober style. White is the dominant colour, but a number of bright colour planes create a playful effect. “Originally there was a grey concrete floor here which made the living area sombre. I like to look through interior magazines that inspired my choice of a light floor. We wanted to keep the space fresh and simple; white is perfect for that. The interior radiates our character: modest… with a daring edge. That’s the reason for the striking colour accents.” “During our search for a suitable floor we came across Balterio by chance. 11 Originally there was a grey concrete floor here, which made the space sombre. The white laminate floor illuminated our loft completely… 12 blauw: pantone 281 c CMYK: 100/72/0/38 lichtblauw: 50% van pantone 281 c CMYK: 50/36/0/19 The WhiTe laminaTe floor illuminaTes The space, giVing The house a posiTiVe and open aTmosphere We both knew very little about laminate. In the shop we could look at Balterio samples and the faded designs fitted our style. Ultimately we opted for clear white, with a rather sober design. Balterio had the nicest decor, the decision was quickly made.” Clear white but still warm Vanessa and Bouziane’s loft has underfloor heating. “The sales assistant assured us that Balterio laminate is perfectly compatible with underfloor heating if there is a suitable subfloor. This finally made us decide to opt for Balterio. The white design brings freshness into the house but the laminate still feels very warm. My husband and the girls always walk around with bare feet.” Before… the matching colour complete it.” Only positive reactions “Bouziane and my father installed the floor themselves. When the laminate was installed we were both pleasantly surprised with the result. Going for a white floor was maybe daring but looking back it was certainly the right choice. The quality is outstanding. I clean the floor with a duster. After four years the laminate is still immaculate, and that’s with two children playing in the house. Everyone who comes to visit for the first time is very impressed.” Unity in finishing “The loft requires unity. So there is the same laminate floor in each room. The various spaces blend visually together because they have the same laminate floors. This also emphasises the open character of the loft. Associated plinths in 13 The V-groove on the longside of the planks accentuates the length of the living room 14 The faded laminate emphasises the playful effect of the striking colour accents The same laminaTe in each room creaTes openness insTall laminaTe yourself Laminate is simple to install if you do it the right way.

The small Villa, aT Walking disTance from The beach, is an oasis of calm. Dominique and Joeri have a second home in Zeebrugge, a modest coastal town on the attractive Belgian coast. “As a medical secretary and civil engineer we both have busy lives. At weekends we try to make time for each other and we regularly come to the sea for a bit of fresh air.” 16 Renovation on the coast rebuilt and all the rooms were redesigned.” “The coast is our freedom. The long walks with our dog Chipie. The fresh air. Here, we can relax after a busy working week. When we purchased this house a few years ago, a dream came true. We immediately felt at home. The house needed to be renovated but that didn’t put us off. The kitchen was entirely When you walk into the house, the authentic tile floor catches the eye. In the rest of the house there is laminate, even in the kitchen. “We wanted to keep the old floor in the hallway to preserve the soul of the house. The peace and freedom of the sea. The fresh air. A dream came true… 17 { The floor had to be easy to maintain. We come here to enjoy ourselves… 18 blauw: pantone 281 c CMYK: 100/72/0/38 lichtblauw: 50% van pantone 281 c CMYK: 50/36/0/19 The dog can Wander around freely and We are Worry-free; eVeryone is saTisfied In the living room and the kitchen there was originally a stone floor but we wanted something warmer. A laminate floor turned out to be ideal. Laminate is thinner than parquet and can be laid on top of the existing floor.” Simple to maintain “The matte finish means the laminate resembles real parquet. The look fits perfectly into the atmosphere of our interior. But the ease of maintenance was actually the most important reason to opt for laminate. We are here to enjoy ourselves, not to scrub and clean. And with a dog in the house a new floor had to be able to withstand knocks.” Light and dark laminate On the lower level there is a light laminate floor, Joeri and Dominique opted for dark laminate in the bedrooms. Both floors come from the Balterio Xperienceplus collection. “The tile floor in the living room felt cold and rather unwelcoming. So we opted for laminate. This brightens the space up and brings a warm cosy feeling to the house. 19 We WanTed a more inTimaTe aTmosphere in The bedrooms so We chose a dark decor 20 The auThenTic sTyle Was preserVed; our neW laminaTe floor WiTh iTs auThenTic look and maTTe sTrucTure has compleTed iT Upstairs we wanted to keep the large bedrooms with high ceilings cosy and intimate. So we opted for a dark laminate floor.” Convincing results Initially Joeri did not think much of laminate but he had to rethink his opinion. “My wife Dominique knew about the advantages of laminate, I had my reservations. Fortunately she was able to convince me because the result speaks for itself. Laminate is not simply a budget friendly alternative to parquet; it looks really realistic and feels that way.

SEEING THE FABULOUS RESULT, THEIR DAUGHTER DANA DIDN’T HESITATE AND CHOSE ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME FLOOR. LAMINATE FROM BALTERIO: ACROSS GENERATIONS. Iva and her husband Zdeněk live in a house on the edge of Prague. Both in their fifties, the entrepreneurs operate two petrol stations in the city. “We work our business 24/7 and dedicate much of our free time to orphaned and disabled children. So our lives are quite busy, but we find rest at home. In the evening we often sit in the garden and enjoy the setting sun – sunsets are particularly lovely in Prague.” 22 The floor as an accent to your interior The laminate catches your eye as you step into the house. In the sober interior, the floor is an accent in itself. “The interior is completely in tune with the floor. Everything had to be in harmony with the laminate, from the furniture to the marble of the fireplace. As a fan of timeless design I am always looking for beautiful things. My husband is more of a pragmatic but he usually agrees to the choices I make (laughs).” Love at first sight Ivan and Zdeněk found their laminate floor at a home and design show. They opted for a floor from the Grandeur range. “We were sold immediately and particularly liked the dimensions and the unique design. Initially we were looking at two different décors: one for the living room and one for the kitchen. But we were advised to take the same type throughout the house.” Two generations opting for Balterio. Timeless laminate for everyone... 23 The eXTra long and Wide planks in The grandeur range bring eXclusiVe luXury To your home “The long planks simply exude luxury. Everyone thinks it is a real parquet floor and the grooves add to that perception. It also has a very natural colour – modern yet timeless. The grain of the oak floor design shines in the sunlight, creating a very special atmosphere. This floor meets all our expectations; we have nothing but praise for Balterio.” 24 blauw: pantone 281 c CMYK: 100/72/0/38 lichtblauw: 50% van pantone 281 c CMYK: 50/36/0/19 Like mother, like daughter Iva and Zdeněk’s daughter Dana works for a software giant and just like her parents, she loves travelling. All the souvenirs she brings back from her trips get a special place in her interior. “Travelling is in our genes. I like to visit fastevolving countries that show a lot of change from year to year. My flat is filled with memories. That is something I inherited from my mother – it’s the same in her house. A little vacation every day...” Across generations Dana was so delighted with what she saw at her parents’ home that she also had it installed in her renovated apartment. Only she chose a slightly Our interior is full of lovely souvenirs and memories of distant travels 25 I get the same reaction all the time: ‘wow, what a lovely floor’. 26 grandeur An exclusive range of laminate with an oak look in extra long planks.

The dark floor is in fact a superb contrast for the light interior.” “My parents were very satisfied with their Balterio floor: it still looks new after two years, even though their dog Emily is indoors all day. The quality is excellent and its look timeless. Therefore I didn’t hesitate a second before opting for laminate. My floor is perfect and indistinguishable from real wood.
