American Oak 6 Collection

If colour choice matters most, start here: this American White Oak line comes in 13 shades, including Toffee Crunch, Smoke Grey, Silver Stone, Coffee and Black Brown. The boards are 6 inches (152 mm) or 6-⅓ inches (161 mm) wide and ¾ inch (18 mm) thick, topped by 2 mm of dry sawn oak.

A plank around 6 inches is a classic width that fits bedrooms, hallways and whole main floors without looking crowded. The engineered multi-layer core keeps boards steady as the house dries out in winter, and it can go over hydronic radiant heat. Vidar wire brushes each board and seals it under an ultra matte BONA UV coat with micro bevelled joints, so pet scratches and scuffs are less obvious. Random lengths give a natural stagger, and grades span Character, Select and Select and Better. Each box covers 19.96 or 21.32 sq ft.
