OAK TURMERIC PLANK

Wooden flooring is a broad term that includes everything from solid wood floors and engineered floors to wood veneer floors. An engineered floor is constructed in multiple layers, with the top wear layer made of materials such as oak, and the other layers typically made of spruce or pine.

This multi-layer design offers several advantages, such as minimizing wood's natural movement through seasonal changes and enabling more efficient use of raw materials.

Also using spruce/pine as a middle layer makes it stable for use over underfloor heating and is more stable than plywood

A laminate floor is not a wooden floor. Laminate flooring features a surface with a printed pattern, often on paper, which is impregnated with resin and applied on a base layer, usually a wood fiberboard (HDF).

Wooden floors, crafted from natural materials, bring warmth and character to a space—both visually and underfoot—enhancing the ambiance of any room. Laminate floors are not as warm to the touch as a real wood floor.

It is also accepted that a real wooden compared to a laminate can add value to the re-sale price of a home.

Engineered wood floors come in different designs, with a wear layer made from either a single wood piece (1-strip) or multiple strips across its width (2-strip or 3-strip). The number of strips influences the floor’s overall look and feel.

As a general guideline, 1-strip and 2-strip designs work well in spacious rooms, creating an elegant, seamless appearance, while 3-strip flooring can add texture and depth to smaller spaces. Ultimately, the choice is all about personal style and preference.

Lastly, all Kahrs 3-strip floors have the same design features as our premium planks but at a fraction of the price point.
