Unfinished Plank (ABC) – DZPGDBML Hand Sample

Description

Our Canvas range of unfinished wood flooring is ideal for homeowners who want to create a distinctive and personalised style. Unlike our Kaleido range of prefinished wood coverings, which can be stained, brush-finished, or coated with lacquer, unfinished flooring allows greater customisation and flexibility to match the end user’s expectations and unique design needs. It also allows the customers to see the natural grain pattern and grading of the wood before the sanding and finishing process of the veneer.

Photos for our Canvas range of products are not available by intent, since we believe the pictures don’t always accurately represent the general characteristics of the wood due to the limitation of cameras, changes in natural/artificial lighting and the relative inconsistencies of various displays on mobile devices or computer monitors. We strive to make our colours as accurate as possible, but images are always intended as a reference only and should not be regarded as the actual product. Unlike our Kaleido range of prefinished products, unfinished flooring is intended to be professionally coated and finished at a further stage, therefore photos of the unfinished boards cannot predict nor represent the final product.

We provide grading information for all our boards from our experienced veneer grader to ensure the product’s undertone and characteristic matches our customers’ expectations. For our unfinished G12 Canvas range of flooring, grading is an important element and should be checked upon before the finishing work. Generally speaking, for a higher-grade board, you can expect a cleaner veneer with fewer to no knots and fillers, and vice versa. It should be noted that grading information serves not as a quality reference but only as a character reference. The structure and finishing quality remain consistent throughout our products, and in most scenarios, a lower grading board will not affect the undertone of the flooring as a whole.

ABC grade allows more natural wood knots to appear on the board and contains a slightly higher amount of sap. This makes it ideal for someone who prefers a truer-to-nature type of veneer presence and a bit more character than its AB and prime counterparts. A floor laid using ABC grade wood also will be showing more colour variations, making the overall presentation liver and richer in patterns but still giving an overall smooth look and consistent feel between all the planks.

Why are we not offering hand samples for our canvas range of products? We noticed that a small 12mm long sample piece does not accurately represent the laid and completed flooring in a house, and it may misstate and lead to a false expectation of our products as grading characteristics on the board vary in areas. On a single board, certain corners may show clear colour variations and knots while the remaining areas of the same board may appear as clean and consistent in patterns. However, if you wish to acquire a structure reference of our boards by looking at our samples, we are more than happy to help you with this. Please refer to this piece for the plank and this piece for the herringbone sample arrangement.
