Kahrs Hardwood Flooring Information
Construction
The Kahrs three layered board construction is guaranteed to prevent seperation and minimise movement. Each layer is bonded with special adhesive and placed under extreme heat and pressure to produce an unparalled product within the hardwood flooring industry. Kahrs invented and patented this process over 50 years ago.

1). The finish. The multi-layer UV Cured Acrylic Urethane finish is factory applied. It is ready to be walked on as soon as the floor is installed. The finish is very easy to maintain and resists most common staining elements in testing done over 24 hrs. Kahrs standard finish is Satin lacquer, some floors are available with a UV cured oil, a natural oil finish and matt lacquer finish.

2).
The top layer of Kahrs flooring is available in many different species. This wear-layer can be renovated and sanded several times and will last for decades. Kahrs offer a 30 year warranty on the durability of the wear layer on their floors. The wear layer is approximately 3.6mm thick.

3). The middle core of quarter-sawn Pine fingers guarantees a lifetime of stability and shape retention.

4). A backing layer of Spruce contributes to the floor's stability. The cross-directional fibers minimize the movements arising from seasonal change.
Kahrs flooring is renewable for a lifetime of beauty
The Kahrs 3.6mm wear layer is comparable in thickness to a 20mm solid strip floor - since sanding is only possible down to the tongue and groove of either board.
Designed to withstand the heaviest furniture without splintering or breaking, Kahrs solid tongue is the hallmark of quality construction. Each board is milled with precise diamond tooling to ensure a tight fit.
Kahrs smooth, tight fitting seams and true square boards are precision milled to exacting standards. There is no overwood with Kahrs flooring - so there's no need for beveling, and no dirt in the seams.
Hard and dimensionally stable
The raw material for Kahrs floors comes from nature, and these materials are processed into beautiful, functional floors which are suitable for most living environments. With Kahrs you have a natural floor which will survive trends and changes of fashion.

The high, consistent quality of Kahrs flooring is obvious. You can see this from the dimensional stability and fit of each board, which makes installation easier and produces a successful result even if you are doing it for the first time. The result is a beautiful floor which is just waiting for you and your furniture.

Makes the floor virtually stain-proof. These finishes require no maintenance and protect the natural beauty of the wood and makes cleaning up spills quick and easy. Even after testing over 24 hours, household products couldn't stain the flooring.
