Renowned for its passion for design and innovation that has seen it at the forefront of the industry for more than 30 years, Quick-Step used Flanders Flooring Days as a chance to immerse visitors in the story behind its latest leading-edge floors. Stepping into its Wielsbeke headquarters, visitors were immersed into a multi-sensory encounter showcasing the brand’s most recent industry-defining developments.
Walking through the Quick-Step experience, visitors gathered knowledge on two major product developments: the new Impressive collection from the laminate range and the next generation of flooring, Lumic, the result of a 10-year development journey to create the perfect floor that will be launched in 2026.
Quick-Step’s Impressive collection has been a mainstay in its laminate category floors for over a decade, when it was introduced as the world’s first and only 100% waterproof laminate floor. In 2025, Impressive is being extensively refreshed through a duo of new wood surface structures inspired by two of the world’s hottest interior design trends, minimalism and thoughtful maximalism.
These new structures reflect the essence of these trends: refined, subtle elegance that echoes a minimalist approach and a rougher and expressive texture that’s bold and courageous. Both are available in colours that complement the trends that inspire them and are joined by a selection of the collection’s retained best-selling décors. Each new look also carries 20 different planks for less repeat that gives a more natural effect.
Alongside these new colours, visitors were also treated to the only 100% waterproof and creak-free laminate herringbone for the very first time in Impressive Design. Using Unizip for a single plank that’s easier and less complicated to install, the new collection retains all the detail and quality of Impressive. Sharing similar colours, it can also be used alongside standard planks to add refinement and an elevated design in rooms. Quick-Step has made an extraordinary 56 planks available in each colour to ensure that Impressive Design stands out as a laminate herringbone floor that looks just like real wood.
