Exceptionally engineered wide-plank wood floors
While non-engineered solid wood is undoubtedly the grandfather of wood flooring, today’s discerning clientele demands exceptional wood flooring that
combines classic or contemporary style with the most up-to-date wood technology and performance characteristics.
Wide single-face planks (155 to 340mm) are, without doubt, the most beautiful wood flooring option available. Multi-strip, narrow strip and low budget
alternatives pale in comparison. However, when choosing a wood floor, one must look further than simple aesthetics. The changing seasons when combined
with various heating systems, subject today’s environments to quite extreme changes in temperature and humidity. When subjected to these changes, non-
engineered solid wood floors tend to gap, cup and warp - ill effects that can usually be seen within one to three years after installation. To overcome such
problems solid wood must be precision engineered and, to do this correctly, an intimate understanding of wood and its properties.
