Palio Rigid White Scotia 2.4m
The Palio Rigid White Scotia 2.4m is a premium finishing trim designed to complement the Palio flooring range from Karndean, specifically Palio Core and Palio LooseLay collections. Providing both a practical and aesthetic solution, this waterproof, colour-matched scotia neatly conceals expansion gaps between flooring and skirting boards or walls, delivering a clean, professional look to any interior space.
This trim is the ideal choice when skirting boards are already in place or when you prefer a sleeker profile around the room perimeter. With its crisp white finish and minimalist dimensions, it integrates effortlessly into both traditional and contemporary interior styles.
Key Product Features
100% Waterproof Construction
Manufactured from high-performance rigid polymer, this scotia is fully waterproof, making it suitable for use in moisture-prone environments such as kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms. Unlike traditional timber trims, it won’t warp, swell, or deteriorate when exposed to moisture.
Colour-Matched, Smooth White Finish
The scotia comes with a pre-finished, smooth white surface that complements a wide variety of floor colours and designs. It can also be painted over to match walls or furnishings, offering excellent design flexibility.
Clean, Low-Profile Design
With compact dimensions of 17.3mm x 17.3mm, this scotia delivers a sleek, unobtrusive transition between the floor and wall. It’s perfect for spaces where maintaining a streamlined visual flow is essential.
Durable, Rigid Core
The rigid internal core enhances strength and shape retention, ensuring a long-lasting and stable finish. It resists dents and impact damage from cleaning tools, foot traffic, and furniture.
Fast, Simple Installation
Easily installed using grab adhesive or finishing pins, the 2.4-metre length is ideal for covering long runs with fewer joints, saving time and effort during installation.
