Natural Wood Flooring by trapa

Our natural wood floors are dimensionally extremely stable. This is ensured on the one hand by the central layer consisting of standing annual rings, on the other hand by the dry cut of the top and back layers, whereby the sawed surfaces are so precise that they neither have to be planed nor sanded and enable optimal bonding. The result is natural wood floors of enormous stability.

Our natural wood floors are free of varnish and wax and not sealed. This way they remain diffusion-opened or “breathable” and regulate the room climate by absorbing moisture from the air and releasing it again. In doing so, they also preserve the most valuable properties of the wood: Liveliness, warmth and comfort.

Long-lasting* colour stability is also guaranteed by the traditional lye treatment, which in some of our natural wood floors allows certain wood ingredients such as resins and tannic acids to react with a special alkali in a natural and ecologically sustainable way. This process inside the wood creates deep, permanently colour-stable wood shades that neither yellow nor wear.

Some of our natural wood floors are deliberately kept knotty or wild, even if this requires significantly more manual work. Because in order to prevent the knots from cracking, each knot is freed from loose fibres in laborious manual work and pressed with high pressure. So every single branch remains permanently beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

For a perfectly even floor surface after installation, our natural wood floors are provided with extremely precisely milled tongue and groove in the middle layer. In order to guarantee high stability on the front sides, special duplex connections made of glued wooden layers are used.

The extremely high resilience and abrasion resistance of our natural wood floors is the result of intensive deep treatment with crystal natural oil. This high-quality oil penetrates the interior of the wood structure, crystallises in the wood pores, hardens there and thus protects the floors from wear and tear. In addition, it gives them a pleasantly velvety feel, makes them non-slip and impervious to water and dirt.

Our natural wood floors are professionally laid with a specially developed, solvent-free adhesive. This enables clean and seam-precise connections up to 0 mm to other materials and an improvement in footfall sound of 14 decibels - without any additional insulation materials.

Unlike the widespread ammonia smoke, our natural wood floors Bog-Look Oak and Terra Oak are treated with a carefully coordinated interplay of heat and pressure until the sugar in the cells of the wood is caramelised. In this way, the wood develops its typical earth, coffee and cocoa shades from the inside out in a very natural way, with a colouring deep in the wood structure itself.
