ARCHITECTURAL FOCUS
At Parador, sustainability isn’ t just a marketing claim – it’ s a guiding principle that shapes every decision we make.
Designed for high-traffic environments, the glue-down Dryback construction ensures dimensional stability and long-term performance across large installations. Available in two formats – Dryback 4.5 mm and Dryback 2.4 mm – the collection allows specifiers to select the ideal solution depending on project requirements. Both options are 100 % waterproof and come with a 20-year commercial warranty, ensuring reliable long-term use in busy environments.
A cohesive natural palette with format freedom
Available in a curated range of 8 oak and larchinspired designs – in three plank formats: Herringbone, Wide, and Chateau – Taterra Dryback balances durability with design versatility. The collection offers architects and designers the flexibility to maintain a consistent visual language across different spaces while meeting the technical requirements of commercial installations.
Parador’ s CEO, Neel Bradham, says:“ At Parador, sustainability isn’ t just a marketing claim – it’ s a guiding principle that shapes every decision we make. Our approach reflects a holistic, long-term commitment to creating products and practices that are both environmentally responsible and designforward. We believe true sustainability happens when form, function, and responsibility are aligned, and that belief is at the core of Taterra – our next-generation resilient flooring.
With Taterra Dryback, we are providing the contract market with a high-performance solution that is PVC and plasticiser-free, supports healthy indoor air quality, and delivers the durability required for highly demanding commercial environments.”
