OAK FLOORBOARD
OAK FLOORBOARD
Particularly noble: Deluxe floorboards made of Oak
Highlighting your individuality, also in your style of living
Oak is a truly multi-faceted and interesting timber. It may be processed in many ways, with each technique generating its own, fascinating appearance of the wood. We also make use of this fact in our prestige product Château by adler.
Our staff will, with top precision and craftsmanship, create customised Deluxe floorboards featuring a variety of exquisite surfaces. We also create special surfaces to suit your particular needs.
We will to the best of our ability strive to meet the wishes of our customers whilst remaining within natures boundaries of the natural raw material of Oak.
We produce tailored Oak floorboards to match your room dimensions or in different lengths and in fixed or varying widths. We also offer you different grades – ranging from particularly uniform with fewer knots to wild and rustic.
Whether shaped by machine or by hand, every top quality floorboard will be given its individual character.
Our sawn-cut or hand-scraped surfaces carry the “Made by hand by Adler in Dirlewang” seal of quality.
And, by the way, we also primarily use Oak originating from PEFC or FSC certified and sustainably managed forests in Southern Germany for our noble Deluxe floorboards.

INFORMATIONS
RANGE OF DIMENSIONS
The Oak floorboards are 19 millimetres thick. The top layer is made of 4.5 millimetre thick sawcut Oak veneer. Floorboard widths and lengths are available with various options: in widths of 180 to 350 millimetres and, on request, also in fixed widths, i.e. a single width. Floorboard lengths measure from 1.8 to 5.0 metres. We can also produce lengths up to 10.8 metres for you, to suit the length of your room.
GRADING
You will normally receive “Château by adler” Oak floorboards graded “Standard”. We can also on request offer you a selection with fewer knots. Please contact us in this respect. The timber for the long and wide Deluxe floorboards may exhibit slight cracks as a result of shrinkage and wind stress. The large dimensions and natural shrinkage may also encourage minor surface cracks due to stress and drying.
SURFACE TREATMENT & COLOUR VARIATIONS
Most surfaces have a machine brush-finished wood texture which we will refine using the NATURA+ oxidative surface treatment. Some floorboards will moreover be finished with a scrub plane by hand. These scrubbed surfaces have a particularly individual character. Wood is a natural product. Colour deviations should therefore be expected, especially on stained surfaces. Colour pigments may produce varying hues, depending on the substances contained in the wood and the grain of the specific wood. These colour variations may occur between different batches but also in a single batch. Smoking of the Oak, be it only lightly or to the core, may also produce light to dark colour variations as a result of natural Oak tannins. These individual colours are distinctive and certify the authenticity of the natural timber product wood.
LAYING & UNDERFLOOR HEATING
The Deluxe floorboard comprises 3 layers with 19 millimetres overall thickness. The large widths and lengths will require full spread gluing. The thermal resistance of the multi-layered Deluxe floorboards is ca. 0.16 m²k / W (as per EN14342), thus rendering it suitable for laying on hot water underfloor heating. Maximum surface temperatures of 26°C should not be exceeded. Please refer to our laying instructions under Downloads and information provided under “All about Parquets” for comprehensive guidelines on laying on underfloor heating.
CARE & AMBIENT CONDITIONS
Your high grade and customised Oak floorboards will demand special care if you wish to enjoy your floor for years to come. [link to All about Parquets / Proper care with NATURA+] Always ensure that your ambient room conditions remain healthy to ensure both your own health and that of your parquet floor. Relative humidity of ca. 50 – 60% and room temperatures between 19 and 22°C would be ideal. Your wooden floor may be damaged unless these guideline values are maintained. The danger of drying out exists especially during heating periods, potentially causing shrinkage cracks in the worst case. Normally such cracks will, however, largely close up again as the room climate improves. The glued layers may also experience shrinkage stress in the event of sudden moisture change.
CERTIFICATION OPTIONS
As an option, we can also offer you our Oak Deluxe floorboards as a 100% PEFC certified parquet. Depending on the wood sources we also might be able to offer a FSC® certified product. Please contact us in this respect.
