A Warm, Spice-Inspired Palette
Life Authentic's tones borrow their names and character from spices, giving each line a warm, earthy identity: Turmeric and Ginger lean golden and warm, while Pepper and Nutmeg sit closer to the deeper end of the range. Every tone shares the same brushed texture and ultra matt lacquered finish, so the decision comes down mainly to which spice-inspired shade suits the room.

FAQ
What does the spice-inspired naming mean for the colours?
Each line takes its name and general warmth from a spice — Turmeric and Ginger lean golden, while Pepper and Nutmeg sit deeper and more muted.
Is Kahrs Life Authentic suitable for underfloor heating?
Yes. The engineered construction is designed to handle the gradual temperature changes underfloor heating produces.
Can Kahrs Life Authentic be sanded and refinished?
With a very thin top layer, this range isn't intended for sanding and refinishing in the way thicker engineered floors are — it's built as a slim, accessible option rather than a long-term resurfacing floor.
What board width does Kahrs Life Authentic come in?
Kahrs Life Authentic is available in a 193mm plank width.
Why choose a 10mm profile floor?
A slim 10mm profile suits installations where floor height needs to stay low, such as retrofits over existing flooring.
