Engineered Wood Flooring
Engineered wood is a wood floor alternative made of a thin top layer of real hardwood over core layers of fiberboard. This product is especially effective over concrete floors or over a heated floor system. Bousada offers approximately 30 lines and 400 samples of engineered wood flooring.
Here are some key points to know about this material:
Appearance
- Can achieve a variety of looks because so many species, textures, colours and stains are available
- Like hardwood flooring, the natural look creates a warm environment
Benefits
- Can be installed directly over concrete floors (hardwood flooring needs a plywood sub-floor)
- Less prone to humidity-induced warping and shrinkage than hardwood
- Can be re-sanded and refinished like hardwood (but only 2-3 times)
- Can install floor heating underneath
Best applications
- Residential interiors, ideal for hallways, common areas, bedrooms and kitchens
- A variety of commercial and public areas including retail, office, shopping malls, churches
