Surface texture

Surface texture, finish, sorting & formats

EXTREMELY ATTRACTIVE: THE surface texture DEFINES THE EFFECT. THAT'S FOR SURE!

One of our many design secrets: any unusual features should be emphasised. That's why we are more than happy to let even unplaned types of wood keep their intrinsic character. If you lean more towards planed varieties of wood, worry not: we offer an equally wide choice of planed woods too: distressed, brushed lengthwise and crossways, or alpin. At times the grains of our finishes are incredibly natural and full of life. This reveals the sensuousness of the wood to the eye and to the other senses

+ brushed
+ brushed

The soft parts of the wood are brushed out of the floorboard. This creates a beautiful texture with a surface that is more durable.

Finish

It is the Finish that determines the room environment and maintenance overhead.
So it's a good job that there is such a wide choice.

Since wood is a natural, living material it is also breathable. It offers the major benefit of absorbing and releasing moisture. It thus provides a balancing effect on the room environment. The choice of finish influences this characteristic. Each type of wood requires different care and can also cope with different challenges, and this is why we offer a wide range of different woods for FLOORs:

+ SOAPED SURFACE

Advantages - natural, smooth, mat finish with more natural wood character. open pores. Regular treatment with floor soap is required.

Sorting

A floor's eventual appearance also depends on the way in which it is sorted.

A tree's growth characteristics and number of branches are, of course, still apparent in its reworked form. In order to achieve a coherent appearance we sort and classify the natural wood boards accordingly. 

+ noblesse

  • Soft, structural appearance
  • In principle knotless (occasional knot points possible)
  • No sapwood
  • Straight and wavy grain (Oak rift in the "Specials range": straight and semi wavy grain)

General notes

These grading examples basically show the grading criteria of Admonter Natural Floors. Admonter Natural Floor as the name implies, is a naturally grown product so that slight deviations in structure and colour are possible. Current dimensions and grading descriptions are shown in our brochures and catalogues and on our website www.admonter.en/downloads. Attention: Please note that samples can change their colour after a certain time with exposure to light. This is a completely natural phenomenon. Prior to installation, it is absolutely necessary to spread out the floorboards and pre-sort them! Due to the reproduction in print colour variations can occur.

Format

Format is essential in every instance. It represents the key for total design freedom.

This is why Admonter supplies floorboards in the widest possible range of lengths from 590 mm to 5000 mm for FLOORs. These can be subdivided into three format groups:

+ classic
+ classic

This is literally the classic floorboard from Admonter in lengths from 1850 to 2400 mm.
