Finishing 

The finishing of the boards is based on a lye-process, also called "bleeding" of the natural acid of the wood.Afterwards the board can be impregnated to achieve the required colour. Then the floor is brushed and polished several times. Within 3 to 6 months after installation the colour will become approximately thirty percent lighter.

Gluing in tongue and groove - not possible.
Floating - possible up to a maximum width of 180 mm.
