LVT & VINYL A Timeless Classic
The experts from LVT specialist Moduleo discuss the origins of herringbone parquet and how easy it is to now emulate the traditional look.
Capable of delivering a distinguished and characterful aesthetic, herringbone designs have grown in popularity exponentially in recent years.
Rooms with this standout design almost tell a rich story of their own and this classic style comes with a modern touch from Moduleo.
Few know that the term herringbone actually dates back to the Roman Empire and the design acquired its name due to the way it resembles the bones of a herring fi sh.
Whilst the fl ooring has strong connotations of timeless, historical design, it has also become popular in ultra-modern homes looking to add dynamism and visual interest.
Suitable for both classic and contemporary properties, Moduleo’s LVT fl oors in this style offer the ultimate in comfort, strength and performance.
Matthew Brook, National Sales Manager for IVC Group UK and Eire, commented: “Herringbone continues to go from strength to strength as a fi rm favourite in the UK. Searches for the style support this and our sales fi gures show growing demand for it over recent years, so we expect this trend to continue.
“At Moduleo, we offer two different sizes of Herringbone plank, meaning a pattern can be accentuated to a customer’s preferences. This offers more fl exibility for people to create the room they truly want and, with a style like Herringbone, they can rest assured that it will be relevant for years to come.”
Despite boasting a classic parquet-style aesthetic, LVT designs provide great acoustic comfort. Vinyl is resilient and reduces walking and transit noise to an absolute minimum.

Herringbone LVT is simple to install and has a variety of wood- effect options priced lower than traditional parquet fl ooring. The range lends itself well to hallways and kitchens, giving them a classic look but with modern benefi ts, such as warmth under foot and water resistance.
Matthew continued: “The herringbone style truly is a timeless classic and elements of the design can be seen throughout history. The style has proven to be an enduring pattern, used in a broad range of contexts, from textiles and fabrics to the world of fl ooring.”
In 2021, making a sustainable choice has never been more important for consumers and LVT can provide that. Driven by continuous R&D, Moduleo has developed a range with new steps taken in the fi elds of wellness, acoustics and performance. The company has a zero-impact sustainability goal in its sights, with the aim to fully cut emissions, eliminate waste and use 100% renewable energy by 2040.
Moduleo is already an eco-friendly option, manufactured using renewable energy in its state-of-the-art factory in Belgium. The factory is equipped with three wind turbines and part of the manufacturing is cooled using water from the Scheldt River which runs alongside the facility. The product contains up to 50% recycled material and is itself recyclable, meaning customers are making a forward-thinking, eco- conscious choice when selecting its LVT.
