Engineered Floor Board Benefits from Wild River Timber

An engineered floor is a floor board made of more than one piece of timber. The multi-plywood base can use up to 12 layers of thinly cut hardwood and softwood plantation timbers placed and glued in multiple directions, this increase the strength and stability of the top layer of solid timber.

Engineered wood flooring is the most common type of wood flooring used globally.

Engineered wood flooring has several benefits over solid wood;

They are a more stable floor, which means fewer failures than with solid floors (Gapping, Crowning and Cupping).

They are wider and require no top nailing like solid boards, which is achievable because of a multi-plywood base.

Available in a range of pre-finished colours and treatments.

Almost no VOC emissions.

Faster installation time due to pre-finished product, which means lower installation costs.

Less waste than a Solid Floor, engineered floors usually factor 5% waste compared with 10% to 15% waste with a solid floor installation.

Can be used in conjunction with in-slab and other sub-floor heating systems.
