About Bear Woods

Bear Woods offers ten colors of Republic's WoodMax waterproof laminate, all in the light-to-mid natural range: pale cream, beige, sand, honey, golden and a couple of soft taupes. The grain is long and lightly figured, and the embossed surface gives the boards a wood-like feel under the hand.

WoodMax is Republic's water-resistant laminate. The company credits its Triple Moisture Protection PLUS process and individually sealed planks, and rates the floor as waterproof for up to 300 hours, a long window for a dishwasher leak or a pet accident to be found and dried. The planks click together, which keeps installation quick over large areas.

Republic's own SPC guidance names bathrooms as a place for SPC rather than laminate, so use Bear Woods in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and kitchens. In those rooms it gives a durable, natural-looking surface in a very usable palette. Warranty terms are not stated in the collection text; we confirm them with Republic.

FAQ

Bear Woods, answered

Ask a designer

What does waterproof for up to 300 hours mean?

It is Republic's rating for how long the sealed laminate resists water on the surface. It gives you time to find and dry a leak, but it is not a license to leave water standing; wipe it up when you see it.

Can Bear Woods go in a bathroom?

Republic's own guidance points to SPC for bathrooms rather than laminate. For a full bath or a laundry room, compare Republic's SPC vinyl plank collections.

How is Bear Woods installed?

The planks click together and float over the subfloor, so large areas go down quickly without glue. Ask us about matching laminate trims, such as stairnose, reducer and T-molding pieces.
