Petite Château Engineered European Oak Flooring
Description

Supplied for interior flooring, Petit Château is a pre-finished engineered oak flooring with a multi-ply core and a hardwood wear layer, with tongue-and-groove profile. Petite Château is 15mm thick overall, with a 4mm European oak wear layer bonded to an 11mm plywood (eucalyptus/birch) core — providing a genuine oak surface on a base that holds its shape. 

Available in 3 wide plank formats (Standard, Grand, Noble), along with Herringbone and Chevron parquetry blocks to allow variations in style from hallways to living areas, while maintaining one colour and one floor throughout. 

Petit Château is Vienna Woods' flagship European-oak collection featuring a tailored look with clean grain and even colour. Available in seven colours ranging from pale, near-white to deep smokey tones. 

Engineered oak is more dimensionally stable than solid timber, so it copes better with changes in humidity, from a damp Auckland winter, then a dry, heated room. The surface is a hard-wearing UV lacquer in an extra-matt finish, laid glue-down. Standard planks and matching stair nosings are held in stock; the wider and parquet formats are milled to order.
