A calm white oak look
Haven is a European white oak visual drawn at a large pattern scale: fewer, broader grain figures per board, so a 7 9/16 inch plank reads as one piece of oak. Mannington draws 20 unique plank visuals at medium variation, with the texture embossed in register and a low lustre finish. The colors shown are Honey, Oat, Toast and Wheat.
For bright rooms
Haven carries Mannington's fade and stain resistance claim, which matters in a living room or dining room with a wall of south or west facing windows. Any floor changes slowly under years of direct sun, so window treatments still help.
Being straight about materials
Haven is a laminate: a 12 mm HDF core pressed from wood fiber, a printed decor and an aluminum oxide wear layer with ScratchResist. Mannington lists recycled content on the product sheet and reports that its laminate floors are made with over 70% post-industrial recycled content. It is FloorScore certified for indoor emissions and made in Vietnam. Mannington rates it waterproof with SpillShield Plus; the core is wood fiber, so dry standing water promptly.
Installation
Haven floats with no glue. If it meets an existing wood floor in the next room, the two will not match exactly, so we place the change at a doorway with a transition, planned at the measurement visit. See how we install green flooring.
Common questions
Can Haven go in a sunroom?
Mannington lists Haven as fade and stain resistant, which suits bright rooms. Laminate installation guides generally require a climate-controlled room, so we check that a sunroom is heated and cooled year round before recommending it.
Which Haven colors do you show?
Honey (28613), Oat (28610), Toast (28611) and Wheat (28614). Ask for the current Haven card if you want to see every color Mannington makes.
