A Premium, Feature-Rich Build
Victoria stands apart from Xylo's other ranges through its substantial 20mm construction and genuine variety in texture and finish. Handscraped lines add real tactile depth, smoked options bring extra richness, and the tonal spread runs from natural European Oak through cooler Silver Grey and Smooth Grey stains to the deep, warm Dark Walnut. With finish options running from a UV gloss lacquer through to matt lacquered and oiled, the range offers genuine choice for how the surface looks and performs.
Where Victoria Works Best

FAQ
Why is Xylo Victoria thicker than other Xylo ranges?
At 20mm, Victoria is built with a more substantial construction than Xylo's slimmer ranges, giving the floor real weight and long-term durability.
Is Xylo Victoria suitable for underfloor heating?
Yes. The engineered construction is designed to handle the gradual temperature changes underfloor heating produces.
Can Xylo Victoria be sanded and refinished?
Yes. The 4mm top layer allows the floor to be sanded back and refinished multiple times to restore its surface as it wears.
What does "handscraped" mean on this range?
Handscraped boards have a deliberately textured surface designed to look and feel hand-finished, adding depth and character to the floor.
What's the difference between the lacquered and oiled finish options?
UV Gloss and UV Matt Lacquered seal the surface for everyday durability with different sheen levels, while UV Oiled soaks into the wood for a more natural feel that's easier to spot-repair.
