Know the Multiple Convenience of Engineered Hardwood Flooring The appeal of hardwood floor is universally accepted. Consumers who look for a classic look and feel might do well to consider engineered timber flooring. It has a long tradition of luxury and timeless beauty. Installing a hardwood floor is also expensive and difficult. Consumers widely opine impression matters in case of timber flooring in Melbourne as does quality and durability. That’s why engineered timber floors have proved so popular in commercial settings such as showroom, gym, art gallery, general office space or a residential high rise. How is Engineered Hardwood Convenient? Unlike conventional hardwood which makes way straight out of the tree and into homes, engineered hardwood is a more complex product that consists of several layers. The outermost is a hardwood veneer, a thin slice of wood of whatever species one desires. The inner layers are made of plywood, high density of fibreboard, or hardwood. The core layers make the product more stable than regular hardwood, while the outer veneer surface adds beauty and authenticity. Engineered hardwood is different from a hardwood laminate because the surface is made of real wood. While laminate has a core of high-density fiberboard, its surface is a picture of wood. Laminate is less expensive than engineered and solid hardwood, but has a different look and feel due to its make-up. Environmental Convenience of Engineered Hardwood Choosing engineered flooring is considered more environmentally-friendly than traditional hardwood for a few reasons. Hardwood trees grow much more slowly than the trees used to make engineered flooring cores. Because more surface area is produced making veneer, installing traditional hardwood uses many times the amount of slow-growing tree. This makes the replenishing time much longer. Veneer sliced rather than cut with a saw. This process produces no sawdust, which means that all of the tree’s wood can be used. The sawdust produced making hardwood boards is wasted wood and adds up to a significant amount.
