French Carriage Oak

These engineered boards are made from reclaimed timber rescued from disused railway carriages in France and Belgium. The Resolute collection uses the outside face of the wood, the side exposed to the elements in decades in service, so the boards keep the texture, weathering and marks of their working life. It's flooring that celebrates the longevity of these timber treasures and their industrial heritage, and it suits rustic authentic interiors with an industrial aesthetic that’s particularly well-suited to commercial, hospitality settings. The reclaimed wood forms the top layer of each board, over a base of sustainable birch plywood, which gives the board long-term stability and makes it suitable for underfloor heating. Slicing the timber this way makes the resource go further: more flooring from the same reclaimed material, a second life for historic timber, and less demand for newly harvested wood.
