Engineering timber flooring, also known as engineered wood flooring, is a type of flooring material that is made from engineered timber. It offers the natural beauty and warmth of real wood while providing enhanced stability and durability through the engineering process. Engineering timber flooring consists of multiple layers of wood veneers or planks that are bonded together using adhesives. The top layer, known as the wear layer or lamella, is made from a hardwood species, providing the desired aesthetic appeal and natural characteristics of wood. The lower layers, called the core layers, are typically made from plywood or high-density fiberboard (HDF). The top layer of the engineered timber flooring is usually made up of hardwood species such as oak, walnut, or maple. The engineering process allows for greater dimensional stability compared to traditional solid wood flooring. By layering the wood in a cross-grain construction, the flooring becomes more resistant to expansion, contraction, and warping caused by changes in temperature and humidity. This makes engineered timber flooring a suitable choice for areas where solid wood flooring may be more prone to these issues, such as basements or areas with fluctuating moisture levels.
