Natural Engineering Flooring refers to engineered wood flooring that maintains the authentic look and feel of natural wood while offering enhanced durability and stability. It consists of multiple layers:
1. Top Layer (Wear Layer): A real hardwood veneer, usually made from species like oak, maple, walnut, or hickory, giving the floor its natural appearance.
2. Core Layers: Made of high-density fiberboard (HDF), plywood, or hardwood layers, providing strength and resistance to moisture and temperature changes.
3. Bottom Layer: A stabilizing backing layer that prevents warping and increases longevity.
Features & Benefits:
Natural Appearance: Retains the beauty of real wood with unique grain patterns and textures.
Enhanced Stability: Less prone to expansion and contraction compared to solid wood.
Versatile Installation: Can be installed as floating, glued-down, or nailed-down flooring.
Eco-Friendly Options: Uses less hardwood than solid wood flooring, making it more sustainable.
Durability: Can be sanded and refinished (depending on the thickness of the wear layer).
