General characteristics - advantages, manufacture and installation

Engineered wood flooring is characterised by the solid layer of timber of approximately 0.5 to 4mms. It is possible to sand the thicker engineered floors even up to 4 or 5 times.

All engineered oak wood floors have veneer as well as base layers to which spruce or pine core lies in a tangential way. This ensures that all the natural movement of the wood is reduced to the minimum.

The engineered flooring does not have to be nailed down or glued down. This makes it much more easy to install and maintan than traditional solid oak wood flooring products.

Engineered wood flooring is manufacatured from the plies of wood which are predominantly glued with each other. In the middle there is a wooden material that is softer tan the one on the top which is a hardwood layer. This provides extensive stability and adhesion.

Why to use engineered wood flooring?

It is one of natural characteristics of wood that it expands and contracts as the temperature and moisture levels change. Engineered wood flooring is constructed in such a way as to reduce the movement to the minimum. To achieve it each ply is placed in a different direction to the remaining ones.

Engineered wood flooring provides great warmth as well as a professional and unique design of the interior. Lots of different patterns, styles and wood types make it one of the most efficient and popular natural oak flooring. You can choose from lots of oak types such as rustic, red, European, white and many others.
