French Oak

Nothing quite captures the romance of a beautiful hardwood floor, like genuine French Oak

Product Information

From our base in Vermelle, France, our own staff source sawn French Oak boards from boutique French Sawmills, who ethically source raw material through a strict forestry scheme. The sawn French Oak boards are then dried to the rigorous Hurford’s standard before being shipped to our Tauranga location for the final production and quality assurance phase. Hurford’s Genuine French Oak Solid Hardwood Flooring is graded to capture all the character and charm of this extraordinary resource.

End Matched

WOOD ELEMENTS end-match profile has a micro bevel edge designed to encourage water to drain away from the join. End matching the product means the boards can be fixed mid cavity batten, eliminating the need to dock and create volumes of waste that previously would have been thrown away.

Automatic Spacing System

This allows expansion to be placed between the boards, which is automatic and doesn’t require any special tools or spacers to get right. This unique design feature takes out any pressure caused if the boards expand due to absorption of moisture.

Double Dried Technology

WOOD ELEMENTS timber is air dried for up to 12 months to bring the moisture content down to “fibre” saturation. From this point the timber is kiln dried. This produces a finished product with a very narrow moisture variation.

Straight Line Dressed

Hurfords uses a process to straighten boards post drying to ensure the boards are straight and stay straight. This ensures that WOOD ELEMENTS can be easily installed and all shadowlines remain as they have been designed – straight.
