What is Engineered Wood Flooring?

Engineered wood flooring is a versatile alternative to solid hardwood, composed of multiple layers that enhance its performance. It consists of:

A real hardwood veneer  A top layer of authentic timber for natural beauty.

A multi-layered core  Layers of plywood or fiberboard for increased stability.

Protective finishes  Options like lacquered, oiled, or brushed textures for durability.

Unlike solid wood, engineered flooring resists expansion and contraction due to temperature and humidity changes, making it suitable for various environments, including areas with underfloor heating.
