In Brisbane’s flooring world, thicker usually means pricier — but that’s not always true.


Big retailers charge showroom prices for 6 mm or 7 mm hybrid floors, while most families just want something durable, quiet, and built to last.

At LUXO Floors, we believe premium flooring shouldn’t come with retail mark-ups or hidden delivery fees.

That’s why we built a direct-to-customer model that gives you 8 mm hybrid floors at 6 mm prices — delivered, trimmed, and ready to install.


Why Thickness Matters More Than You Think


Thickness

What It Means

Feel & Performance

6 mm

Entry-level, lighter core

Louder underfoot, less stable

7 mm

Mid-range, common retail option

Feels solid but not as dense

8 mm (LUXO)

SPC (silica-free) water-resistant core

Quieter, denser, and longer-lasting

That extra millimetre adds stability, comfort, and acoustic performance — especially important in Queensland’s open-plan homes where sound travels easily.

Why Our Pricing Works — The D2C Difference

We cut out the middlemen, showrooms, and sales commissions.

Instead, we invest in quality manufacturing, better delivery logistics, and direct support.

So when you buy from LUXO Floors, you’re not paying for:

  • Store rent and salespeople

  • Brand mark-ups hidden in “promotions”

  • Separate delivery and trim costs

You’re paying only for the floor, not the fluff.

8 mm Hybrid Floors at 6 mm Prices, How We Do It?

Our hybrid floors use an SPC (silica-free) water-resistant core that gives you the strength and stability of high-end floors — without the retail markup.

We bulk-ship directly from factory to home, skipping showrooms entirely.

That’s how a $70/m² floor becomes $50/m² — and you still get safer materials and higher performance, not builder-grade shortcuts.

A Smarter Way to Buy Flooring in Brisbane

Buying floors shouldn’t feel like negotiating at a car dealership.

With LUXO, pricing is transparent, delivery is included, and your floors are built to last 25 years.

Whether you’re renovating or building new, you deserve the peace of mind that comes from paying for quality, not overheads.
