MAGNEWOOD GREEN FLOORING

Magnewood is the latest innovation in engineered green flooring. It is a uniquely designed wood flooring for high humidity areas, engineered to be installed virtually anywhere. In kitchens, basements, or attics, places where
ordinary solid wood floors can’t survive.

ensure that the bond between veneer and base is very strong. The moisture of the base should equal the moisture of the veneer and the fibers of the traditional base must run perpendicular to the direction of the grain in the veneer
otherwise facial checking failures will surely result.
