Wood flooring durability depends on oak drying

The highest manufacturing standards and precise technical solutions make our factory stand out. At our facilities, we use Belgian-made machines to begin the drying process. As we use top-class equipment, we can use a slow drying regime at maximum capacity, which is crucial for product durability. There is hardly another manufacturer with a drying cycle that lasts an average of 35 days. Oak requires patience, so we go slowly.

The importance of the wood oiling process

Using our technology, we can oil oak flooring smoothly. In applying oil, we intend to maintain oak's natural look & feel while giving it some of the colours for an array of interior design options. By hand, an eco-friendly SAICOS oil made in Germany is applied to wooden planks. Prefinished oiled items are dried entirely under natural conditions: they remain at room temperature for some time and are ventilated naturally without any artificial speeding. While it may sound simple, the time we give oil after it's been applied ensures that it is absorbed completely and will continue to provide long-lasting benefits to any household. It is a patient process implemented by our team of oak masters.

Exquisite oak parquet flooring: precision beyond limits

In the Herringbone and Chevron wood flooring patterns, shorter floorboards are laid out at angles, and the planks are cut and installed differently. In each case, precision is crucial!

Herringbone flooring is made from rectangular planks, all cut to the same size. It creates a kind of broken zigzag pattern prized for its asymmetry because each plank sits 90° away from the other.

In contrast, Chevron flooring pattern is made with planks where the ends of each board are cut at an angle of 30°, 45°. An inverted V pattern is created when the boards are fitted together. Whether the angle is 30°, 45°, or 90°, our computerized automated machines can achieve it precisely.

We recently purchased Ecohardwood engineered oak wood flooring in the Tobacco colour and we couldn’t be happier. The quality is excellent – well made, with a beautiful natural finish. We installed it throughout the whole house and it has completely changed the look and feel of the space, giving it a warm, modern and very natural feel. We did apply a premium hardwax oil, which enhanced the tone and added extra protection. We are extremely happy with our choice and would definitely recommend this floor to anyone looking for great quality and a timeless look.
I bought the floors for 1 of my project. They look amazing, worth every penny. The client is so happy with this flooring. Next projects will suggest to my clients to get this floor. Easy to install...One of the staff which I deal with ( name Renata ), was really helpful. Thank you Renata. Definitely recommend this flooring.
We used Ecohardwood flooring for our new loft conversion. The process from start to finish with Mantas and all the team was smooth. We also purchased doors which complete the room. We are delighted with the outcome and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them.
We were on the hunt for the perfect Chevron oak parquet to match our Parisian-style home, and we’re so glad we found you guys! The colour, the quality – everything is absolutely spot on. The customer service was fantastic too – friendly, helpful, and super professional. Big thanks from our whole family (including Shrek, our very spoiled British Blue cat)!
I recently worked on my kitchen showroom and chose EcoHardwood for the flooring. They have a beautiful new showroom, and I’m thoroughly impressed with the quality and variety of colors they offer. The team were extremely informative and knowledgeable, and they helped me make the best choices. Love my DUNE colour! The entire project turned out wonderfully, and I’m very satisfied with the results.
