WHAT WE DO
SUSTAINABLE INITIATIVE
We are strongly focused on the environmental aspects of the timber flooring and products we use, working with suppliers such as Havwoods who source their timber from environmentally responsible mills, the most intensively managed in the world, ensuring responsible eco-conscious processes and resulting in a high quality finished product.
Did you know… and Why we care…
- It is well known that trees are the true legends of our planet, filtering harmful pollutants into the oxygen we breathe. It’s crucial that we look out for them as they do for us, creating environmental sustainability.
- A single tree can absorb as much as 48 pounds of CO2 a year making trees the most effective carbon capture machines we have available. CO2 emissions are the principle cause of climate change.
- Forest’s will reach a climax, At this stage, new trees only grow as others fall, the dead and dying trees emit CO2 from the stored carbon and, since growth is only matched by decay, there is no net increase in carbon storage.
- Harvesting trees as they mature allows the carbon to be stored throughout the life of the wood product, and the market for wood provides an economic incentive to preserve and replant.
- Smarter use of wood products will stimulate the expansion of the forests and so reduce greenhouse gas emissions
- Precious Oak used in your engineered flooring boards is only applied to the top layer 3-6mm to maximise their usability, the substrate of the board utilises fast growing plantation timbers that are all sustainably Harvested.

FAQ
Why use engineered timber flooring?
- Engineered timber supports Environmental Sustainability by producing many more planks, causing less wastage and making better use of slow-growing trees.
- Engineered wood floors create a highly stable core that’s less likely to expand and contract when exposed to moisture and humidity.
- Engineered flooring can be directly fixed to any substrate, including a concrete slab using a trowel glue method.
- Engineered boards are straight and flat and will lay with ease.
- Engineered board can be re-sanded and polished.
Solid hardwood floor boards, on the other hand, tend to have more defects and bows which require more work in the installation process. Engineered floors have a more stable substrate and individual planks can be much wider than solid hardwood floors. Engineered boards also reduce labour and material, making the entire process more efficient and cost-effective.
How should you look after your new floor?
Cleaning your floor regularly is a good place to start. We suggest:
- First vacuum any loose dirt or grit to avoid wear and scratches and use an electrostatic mop which glides over easily.
- Do not under any circumstances use any bleach, ammonia or caustic based cleaners (e.g. regular household cleaners like Domestos and White King) as they can weaken the coating and may cause colour distortion or staining.
- Use felt pads for protection under all furniture. Door mats provide extra protection in high traffic areas.
- Fats such as oils and greasy foods can be extremely penetrating, leaving permanent marks. We strongly recommend avoiding leaving any spills of this nature. Clean up immediately using one of the “spot” cleaners by WOCA. Alternatively, use a mild sink detergent or a 1-part methylated spirits or vinegar to 4 parts water mix as a one-off cleaning method.
