What is Engineered Hardwood Flooring?

…or high-density fiberboard and a top layer of real hardwood veneer. The genuine hardwood top layer features the natural beauty and characteristics of the selected wood species. Engineered hardwood flooring’s cross-grain construction of a multiple-ply plank makes it stronger and more structurally sound compared to a single piece of solid wood. When installed, the planks remain flat and intact, and won’t buckle, cup, gap, or twist.

These natural hardwood floors are “engineered” to provide more versatility and greater stability, particularly where humidity or moisture are a concern. The multi-layer structure of engineered hardwood flooring makes it resistant to seasonal expansion and contraction and helps overcome the problems associated with solid wood flooring under adverse conditions – warping, cupping, swelling, or splitting. A quality engineered hardwood floor is expertly crafted to provide superior performance and many years of beauty and wear.
