Välinge Innovation, the inventor of click-flooring and most known for the innovative 5G and Threespine click technologies is now launching its first flooring product. Besides having the 5G fold down locking system with the waterproof joint 5G Dry, the floor is manufactured with the Woodura surface technology. This patented technology is based on fusing a thin sheet of real wood with a wood fiber core through a powder mix layer. The powder mix perfectly fills natural openings of the wood and enhances the wood appearance and in the same operation makes the wood surface extremely durable and strong.
Woodura provides an opportunity to enhance the unique character of natural wood by combining different wood assortments with powder mixes in different colors.
If you want a real wood floor, with the aesthetics and feel of real wood but wish to avoid the weakness of traditional hardwood floors, the Woodura technology creates a floor that is three to five times stronger than other hardwood floors resulting in improved indent resistance – no more worrying about pets running, children dropping toys. In addition, 5G Dry makes the floor waterproof for topical water – the perfect floor for both an active family home and most commercial environments.
As the trend in flooring continues to go towards wide planks, Välinge Flooring’s products really hit the mark. The technology allows for production of extra wide planks, up to 11 inches wide and 8 feet long – at an affordable price. Whether you want to give your room a contemporary, vintage or industrial character, the 11 colorways in ash, walnut and oak will offer you the design that you want.
The new flooring featuring Välinge’s Woodura surface technology is not only a beautiful real wood floor but also a sustainable choice. The Woodura technology results in 30 times more flooring being produced from the same amount of lumber compared to traditional solid wood flooring.
The floor is produced in a state-of-the-art flooring factory in Viken, Sweden with 50 million-sq-ft. yearly capacity. The raw material for the wood face layer comes from Välinge’s sister company Bjelin in Croatia. Välinge Flooring will primarily be sold via distributors and e-commerce in USA.
