TRAPA
This Austrian range is the creme de la creme of engineered timber flooring, offering products so stable that they will withstand ambient temperatures up to 60°C and may even be fitted in a sauna. Trapa boards are of a triple layered construction, many of them symmetrical with a 4mm wear layer and quarter sawn inner core. Materials are always sourced from the same region to ensure consistency of tannin, colour, etc, and the wood is both air dried and then kiln dried before being cut. This is a costly and time-consuming process, but the result is exceptional. Crystallising natural oils, lye, heat and pressure are used to generate a variety of light-stable colour shades out of each wood species, the planks are sanded with an ultra-fine grit paper, saturated with oil and buffed with the grain instead of using a circular motion. The result is an exceptionally flat, exceptionally stable, exceptionally fine board with PEFC™ certification, suitable for use over underfloor heating and ideal for high footfall areas, available in several interchangeable dimensions right up to gigantic planks measuring 8m long and over 400mm wide. The products shown in the following pages are held in stock. The remainder of the 160-strong range is available to order, only from Havwoods. Please note: Trapa grades do not correspond with Havwoods standard grading and that the warranty is invalid if Trapa glue, trowel and maintenance kits are not used; micro-fibre materials should never be used.
