TECHNICAL DATA SHEET: RECLAIMED WOOD FLOORING

GWC brings flooring, paneling, and furniture made from 100% reclaimed teak — the most beautiful, durable, authentic, responsible hardwood material on the market. From warm honey blondes to dark rich chocolates- Indonesian teak is renowned for its elegance and stunning color variations. Teak contains high levels of resinous oils making it water-resistant and virtually maintenance-free. Unlike many wood materials, our century-dried, engineered flooring and paneling will not warp, shrink or swell. Our teak’s dense grain ensures preserved integrity over time. All of our products are composed entirely of the highest quality Indonesian FSC-certified recycled teak… even the bottom layers of our engineered flooring and paneling.
