Serenzo ® DUO-x
|
Conventional multi-layer wood flooring
|
|
- Extra-strong top layer of up to 6mm thickness
|
|
|
- Dimensionally stable back layer made of 11 layers of birch plywood
|
- Back layer made of soft, less stable, pinewood
|
|
- DUO-x wood originates exclusively from sustainable forestry operations and is FSC certified. Further information under www.fsc.org
|
- Mostly cheap, bottom range products. Often Asian production from illegal forestry operations and exotic wood species
|
|
- Total thickness of 20mm suitable to be fitted by either screwing/nailing onto joists, by gluing down or floating.
|
- Nearly impossible to lay directly onto joists and therefore requiring an expensive subfloor
|
|
- Formaldehyde-free (E1), cold bonding results in more dimensional stability and an emission- free floor
|
- Mostly heat-bond with cheap urea glue. The heat is responsible for tensions in the wood and this can eventually result in distortion
|
|
- Traditional tongue and groove connection proven for centuries
|
- New “Click”- profile making creaking noises more likely
|
|
- 7 mm tongue increases the strength and thus the bonding between individual planks for maximum stability
|
|
|
- Dozens of high quality factory surfaces
|
- Mostly only available in lacquered and oiled sanded surface
