The Milano Engineered Natural Oak Brushed and Lacquered flooring combines classic natural oak tones with a textured brushed surface and protective lacquered finish. The result is a floor that showcases the beauty of real oak while offering practical everyday durability and easy maintenance.
Each board measures 190mm wide, making it a wide plank flooring option that helps create a more open and spacious feel throughout the room. The wider boards reduce the number of visible joins across the floor, allowing the natural oak grain to become a more prominent feature within the overall design.
The surface is finished using a combination of brushing and lacquering. The brushing process removes some of the softer grain from the oak, helping to highlight the natural grain patterns and texture of the wood. A protective lacquer is then applied, sealing the surface and helping protect against everyday wear while making the flooring easier to clean and maintain.
This is mixed grade oak, meaning natural knots, grain variation, and colour differences are all part of the floor's appearance. These natural characteristics help create an authentic hardwood look and ensure every installation has its own unique character.
The floor is manufactured using an engineered multi-layer construction, designed to provide greater stability than solid wood flooring. This helps reduce movement caused by fluctuations in temperature and humidity, making the flooring suitable for most rooms throughout the home, including conservatories. It is also suitable for use with water-based underfloor heating systems, although bathrooms and areas exposed to standing moisture should be avoided.
With a 14mm overall thickness and a 3mm solid oak wear layer, the flooring offers a reassuringly durable feel underfoot. The wear layer allows the floor to be sanded and refinished up to two times during its lifespan. In most domestic environments, refinishing is unlikely to be required for many years, but it provides useful long-term flexibility if needed.
Installation uses a tongue and groove fitting system, with boards designed to be glued together and typically installed as a floating floor. A 3mm underlay is generally fitted beneath the flooring to help improve sound insulation, heat retention, and protection against minor subfloor moisture. For installations over water-based underfloor heating, a 4mm compressed rubber underlay is recommended.
Boards are supplied in mixed lengths, helping to create a more natural and varied floor layout throughout the installation.
The combination of natural oak colouring, textured grain, and protective lacquered finish makes this flooring an excellent choice for homeowners looking for a balance of traditional wood character and practical everyday performance.
When ordering, allow approximately 10% extra for cuts and wastage, plus an additional 5% for natural grading variation.
The Milano Natural Oak Brushed and Lacquered flooring offers the timeless appeal of real oak with added texture and practicality. The brushed finish brings the grain to life, while the lacquered surface helps protect the floor from everyday wear, making it a great choice for busy family homes.
