Engineered Wood Parquet

Engineered wood flooring is manufactured using several layers of wood plies that are fused together under heat and pressure. Unlike solid wood flooring, which is milled from a single piece of timber, engineered parquet features a solid wood top layer combined with a stable core structure that improves dimensional performance.

Beyond its stability, engineered wood flooring offers practical installation advantages. It is available with patented installation systems that allow faster fitting and easier replacement of individual boards. It also supports floating installation, where planks are not fixed to the subfloor or to each other, reducing installation time and simplifying repairs. Engineered parquet is also suitable for underfloor and radiant heating systems.

Engineered wood floors are low in emissions and allergens, contributing to healthy indoor environments. Thanks to the real wood surface layer, they help regulate indoor climate, offer a long service life and can be renovated multiple times. The construction typically consists of a hardwood top layer, cross-layered plywood or pressed wood core for stability, and a hardwood backing layer, with different thickness options available to suit a wide range of applications.

COMPOSITION

Engineered wood flooring is constructed from multiple plies of wood with a solid wood top layer. The intermediate layer comprises cross layers of plywood or wood that is pressed to create a strong, stable core. At the bottom is a hardwood backing. Engineered flooring is offered in a variety of thickness levels so it can be used in a wide-range of applications without odd transitions between different flooring materials.
