Kahrs Oak Nouveau Rich is a warm, bronze oak floor, lightly peppered with knots and cracks for a lively yet subtle character. It’s a 1-strip floor, meaning the full width of each plank is made from a single strip of oak, and each board measures 2420 x 187 x 15mm.
The surface layer of this Oak Nouveau Rich flooring is brushed, accentuating and embracing the natural texture of the wood, whilst the matt lacquer finish provides protection against wear and tear and eliminates glare. 4-sided bevelling creates that full plank look and feel when laid.
The Kahrs Oak Nouveau Rich has a click-joint for quick and easy installation. The Woodloc® 5S is Kahrs’ newest and most innovative locking joint, allowing each board to click and lock snugly into place beside its neighbour, for a rigid, strong and gap-free floor, with no adhesive needed. It can be installed as a floating floor, with underlay to provide acoustic and thermal insulation as well as a built-in damp proof membrane. Nouveau Rich flooring can also be glued-down in situations where this is a preferable installation method.
The innovative multi-layer floor construction, invented by Kahrs back in 1941, creates a real oak floor, that is far more durable, flexible and sustainable than if hardwood was used throughout the board construction from top to bottom. Faster growing softwoods like spruce and pine are used in the lower, unseen layers of the floor. These softwoods are not as reactive to moisture and temperature as hardwoods like Oak and Walnut, but are also more flexible, which means the Kahrs Oak Rich can expand and contract naturally through the changing of the seasons without it undermining the strength of the planks. It also makes the floor suitable for use with underfloor heating, and makes more efficient and environmentally friendly use of the slower growing, more valuable hardwood trees like Oak.
With a 3.5mm wear-layer, the floor can be re-sanded 2 – 3 times in its lifetime and it comes with a 30 year manufacturers guarantee. This is a premium quality oak floor that will stand the test of time and give a stunning natural beauty to your home.
