Unique Manufacturing Process
One of the things that set Appalachian Flooring apart from the competition is their unique manufacturing process.
To ensure the upmost quality and that their production adheres to their strict environmental policy, they only work with sawmills and reputable forestry operators who follow responsible forestry regulations and environmental guidelines. In addition, they purchase only the best quality planks and logs for production in their state of the art manufacturing facility, which has the highest quality control standards in the industry.
The milled planks are then finished in their prefinishing factory, ensuring that each and every piece meets their high standards. They are committed to a practice of continuous improvement and strive for perfection, which means that they are constantly streamlining their production in order to develop hardwood flooring of the highest quality.
The Evershine™ Difference
After each plank passes quality control, it is then treated with Evershine™, Appalachian’s patented finish that has revolutionized hardwood flooring by providing a finish that is both beautiful and incredibly durable.
Comprised of a high concentration of aluminum oxide nanoparticles, which are suspended in a UV-cured polyurethane finish, Evershine™ is praised for its ability to provide a resilient finish that protects your floors from every day wear and tear. Because the abrasion-resistant aluminum oxide particles are on the top layer of the Evershine™ finish, the wood’s original appearance is preserved for years to come and is backed with a 35-year warranty.
As a result, Appalachian hardwood is ideal for high traffic areas of the home as well as busy commercial spaces. In addition, this finish is UV stabilized which means that there is a reduction in colour change over time and it includes an ultra-fresh anti-microbial additive, which provides consumers with added peace of mind. On top of its practical qualities, Evershine™ also provides a gorgeous finish to your floors and the retention of its gloss maintains the original beauty for years to come.
