Xtreme - Wood Flooring

Description

Contemporary pre-finished engineered timber is tough, and the distressed finishes which are currently so popular are ideal for disguising minor levels of wear, but if your scheme calls for a traditional-looking timber plank, the options are more limited. High footfall retailers frequently face this dilemma, since the high CRI lighting required to render colours faithfully also highlights every mark. Marks and Spencer is a prime example: wanting to use wood to portray quality and warmth in the clothing and changing room areas of their new stores in Brussels and Hong Kong, yet being supremely aware of the practicalities. The solution was Xtreme: up to 60% harder than oak, it’s the perfect plank for exceptional levels of traffic.
