3. Engineered Black Walnut Flooring: Stability for Perth's climate
One standout quality of our patented Stabilised Solid engineered Black Walnut flooring is its practicality, particularly in Perth's fluctuating temperatures.
Our flooring is composed of three layers of real timber of the same wood species. A handcrafted surface layer provides the authentic look and feel of solid hardwood, while a cross-engineered core layer delivers structural stability. This surface can be re-sanded multiple times and carries nine layers of protective coating around all six sides of every layer - so it is simple to clean and maintain, and comes with a lifetime warranty. The engineered construction minimises movement caused by changes in temperature and humidity, keeping your floor beautiful and functional. With a long lifespan and versatility across installation methods, engineered American Black Walnut flooring is well worth considering for your home.
