Engineered hardwood flooring is a product made up of a core of hardwood, plywood or HDF and a top layer of hardwood veneer that is glued on the top surface of the core and is available to supply in almost any exotic wooden species. The product has the natural characteristics of the selected wood species as opposed to a photographic layer. The “engineered” product has been designed to provide greater stability, particularly where moisture or heat pose problems for exotic solid hardwood floors.

The instability of solid hardwood is usually moisture or heat related. Under adverse conditions, solid hardwood floors can warp, cup, swell or split apart. Engineered hardwood flooring overcomes these problems by constructing a multiple-ply plank from the supplier which counteracts twisting and remains flat and intact on your floor. This makes engineered hard wooden flooring a better choice for installation over radiant heat sources, over concrete whether it’s below grade or above, and in rainy climates.

In addition to the top hardwood veneer, engineered wood flooring typically has three or more core layers. Of course, there is greater stability with more layers. The core layers may be plywood, high-density fibreboard, or hardwood.

The hardwood veneer, or top layer of hardwood, can typically be 0.6mm to 4.5mm or more in thickness. A quality hardwood veneer will provide many years of wear.

Most engineered wood floors are floating and each plank is simply glued together via a tongue and grooved system therefore it is not fastened to the sub-floor, making the product very easy and cheap to install.
