Whats the difference between engineered and solid wood?
Engineered products, available in planks and strips, are manufactured of hardwood using a cross-directional laminated construction (3 to 5 layers), with a top layer of premium hardwood. This construction counteracts the natural tendency of wood to expand and contract with seasonal changes in temperature and humidity, making engineered products inherently dimensionally stable. Solid products, available in planks, strips or parquet, are manufactured from a solid piece of wood.
