What Is Engineered Flooring?

Engineered Oak refers to a type of hardwood flooring that is constructed using a layered structure. It is made up of a thin layer or veneer of oak wood, which is the topmost visible layer providing the natural beauty and characteristic grain patterns of oak. This veneer is bonded to multiple layers of plywood underneath, creating a stable and durable flooring product. The layers are usually cross-layered and glued together in a way that enhances the structural integrity and resistance to expansion and contraction due to changes in temperature and humidity. Engineered oak flooring offers the aesthetic appeal of solid oak flooring while providing increased stability and versatility.
