Nexgen Premium Waterproof Wood Floors


There’s no mistaking the warmth and natural beauty of hardwood flooring.
But on its own, wood is sensitive to moisture and can show signs of
damage when exposed to spills, pets, and mopping. Our Pet Guard
technology reinforces the natural hardwood wear layer, making it possible
to live on genuine hardwood without worrying over performance. So now, you can enjoy waterproof wood floors






Category: Waterproof / Weatherproof engineered wood
Core type: High-density mineral-reinforced composite (NOT plywood, NOT SPC)
Wood content: Real wood veneer on top
Why it’s waterproof: The core and backing don’t absorb water



This is where NeXGen differs from traditional engineered wood.
Core composition typically includes:
How it’s made:
Key traits:
👉 This core is why they can legally call it “weatherproof” instead of just “water-resistant.”

This is not glued plywood, so the lock strength matters a lot.

Traditional wood fails because:
NeXGen avoids this because:
👉 You can spill water, mop it, or install in kitchens and basements — things you’d never do with normal engineered hardwood.

This is a true hybrid product.

It is a man-made structural panel, engineered specifically for flooring, made by compressing minerals + resins (and sometimes micro-wood fibers) into a rigid slab.
Think of it as:
An engineered stone-and-polymer board designed to replace plywood
—not vinyl, not wood panels.
While every factory tweaks the recipe, it usually contains:
⚠️ Important:
If wood is present, it’s microscopic fiber, not chips or strands — nothing that can swell like MDF or plywood.
There are no glue layers, no cross-plies, and no voids.

SPC is a vinyl product.
This core is a structural composite.
Plywood fails because:
This composite:
Manufacturers avoid standard terms on purpose. You’ll see:
Different names — same idea.
It was developed to solve 3 problems:
1️⃣ Plywood + water = failure
2️⃣ SPC + real wood veneer = cracking
3️⃣ Laminate + moisture = swelling
This core sits between SPC and plywood:
A high-pressure, mineral-reinforced composite panel engineered to replace plywood in wood flooring, delivering water stability without the brittleness of SPC.
