ENGINEERED DRIFTWOOD FRENCH OAK FLOORING
Our Driftwood French Oak flooring is manufactured using world-class Stabilised Solid® technology. Featuring three layers of genuine French Oak timber, this advanced construction method provides exceptional stability while reducing the movement commonly associated with traditional timber flooring.
Unlike many engineered flooring products that use low-quality timber substitutes beneath a thin veneer, Stabilised Solid® flooring can be re-sanded multiple times throughout its lifespan. This makes it a smart long-term investment for homeowners seeking both beauty and performance.
CARING FOR YOUR DRIFTWOOD FRENCH OAK FLOORS
To protect your flooring, we recommend placing felt pads beneath furniture, using entry mats in high-traffic areas and promptly wiping up any spills. With simple ongoing care, your Driftwood French Oak flooring will continue to showcase its natural beauty and timeless appeal for many years to come.

THE ELEGANCE OF FRENCH OAK FLOORING
French Oak flooring has an elegance that is hard to find in any other flooring product. It’s appeal hasn’t diminished over the years, and with the development of Lifewood’s extra long and extra wide floorboards, it is now in even higher demand.
French Oak is generally considered to be superior to other oak varieties: it has a higher tannin content, which in turn gives more colour variety; it has a tighter grain structure, meaning it is far more dense and it’s also a more stable timber, perfectly suited for Australia’s harsh climate.
