PurParket uses an old world approach when it comes to manufacturing, which ensures superior quality control and results in superbly crafted flooring that lasts for generations. Each piece of lumber is meticulously selected to meet the scrupulous standards of their craftspeople. It is dried until it achieves the ideal moisture content and dry sawn to substantial thickness, a unique characteristic of PurParket’s flooring. This technique ensures that each board is unique, as it does not create repetitive patterns. To provide superior strength and stability, each four-millimeter wear layer is fused with an engineered Baltic birch core. The planks are then hand treated with a number of surface treatments. While most manufacturers rely heavily on mechanization during production, PurParket’s craftspeople complete the vast majority of their production by hand, which enables for more points of inspection and a higher quality product. Finally, they finish each plank with a smooth, brushed, or distressed surface treatment and protect it with a gorgeous oil finish that utilizes oils naturally found in our environment. As a result, the floor’s finish is as safe as it is beautiful. In addition to their own strict quality control standards, PurParket products adhere to the industry standards established by the National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA). Although they specialize in wide plank engineered hardwood made from European white oak, when shopping for PurParket Flooring in Toronto, you will be amazed by the diversity of their beautiful selection. Their collections, which utilize brushed, distressed, and smooth surface treatments, perfectly complement the organic beauty of the oak planks, demonstrating an exceptional attention to detail.
