BOEN Ash White Andante Engineered Flooring, Matt Lacquered, 138x3.5x14 Mm

The BOEN Ash White Andante Engineered Flooring, Matt Lacquered, 138x3x14 Mm is part of our BOEN Ash Prime flooring collection, adding a natural touch to every environment. This 138 mm wide flooring plank comes with 3.5 mm top layer and Click joint system.

Ash Flooring

Ash timber has a similar density and strengths as oak, but is lighter in weight. In fact, it's often used as a replacement for oak and is sometimes called "golden oak." Like oak, cherry and maple timbers, ash is considered a hardwood. Besides its strength, ash wood is almost entirely shock resistant and this makes suitable material for various uses, including ash flooring.

The grain of the white ash is widely spaced and tidy, forming long lines on the flooring planks and black ash has darker rings (medium brown) closer together, which adds a different sort of look and charm to the interior.

Hardwood Wear Layer

BOEN Ash White Andante Engineered Flooring, Matt Lacquered, 138x3x14 Mm has a 3 mm real hardwood top layer, the most popular and cost-effective wear layer for engineered wood flooring. The top layer, or wear layer, is the solid wood surface you walk on. Its thickness decides how many times the floor can be sanded and refinished during its life.

A professional sanding usually removes around 0.5–1 mm of timber, so a 3 mm wear layer can typically be renovated at least once, and often twice. Between sandings, the finish can also be refreshed with a recoat of lacquer or maintenance oil, without sanding back to bare wood.

It's a great choice for bedrooms, living rooms and rental properties, giving you the authentic look and feel of real wood at a more affordable price. Compare other 3 mm top layer floors, or browse our full engineered wood flooring range.

Live Matt Lacquered Finish

This 6 layer Live Matt sealing with a very low gloss level makes the lacquered surface look “as oiled”. A natural look combined with the advantages of a scratch-resistant finish, supplied by the swedish leader in wood floor finishes - Bona.

BOEN places considerable emphasis on protecting the environment during all phases of production. Neither lacquer nor oil emit gases, which are harmful to humans or to the environment. 

Andante - BOEN's Timber Grading Explained

Unlike other manufacturers of flooring, which use 3 grades in the selection of timber for wooden products (Prime, Natural and Rustic), BOEN has a more diverse classification. Andante is a grade used by Boen for wooden floors with longer grain pattern, minor colour variation and small knots. This would be classified as Prime or Select grade by some other manufacturers of flooring.

Installation - BOEN 5G Click

BOEN's 14 mm wood flooring range offers 5G Click system for rapid installtion. They are easy to install, designed for floating installations over concrete or timber subfloors. The 5G Click from BOEN is safest choice for underfloor heating systems (UFH) and although does not require use of any flooring adhesive, it is suitable for gluing to the subfloor as well.

Please note, when click system planks join together they create their own plain and level, which when floated over uneven subfloor may cause bouncing. Therefore some subfloor prep may be required prior to considering a click system plank, if there is any concern with level. Failing to address these may cause as well sqeaky noise, coming from the click system after the installation.

Maintenance

Lacquered wood floors are easy to look after. Vacuum with a hard-floor head or sweep regularly to remove grit, which can scratch the surface. Every so often, clean with a pH-neutral, lacquer-friendly cleaner that leaves no moisture or residue. For everyday cleaning we recommend the Bona Spray Mop with Bona Cleaner refills, available in our cleaning & maintenance range.

Avoid steam cleaners, wet mops, wax or oil-based polishes, which can damage the finish or make it slippery. Wipe up spills promptly, fit felt pads under furniture and use doormats at entrances to keep the floor looking new for longer.

When a busy area starts to look dull or worn, and the lacquer hasn't worn through to bare wood, it can be lightly abraded and given a fresh coat of floor lacquer without a full sanding.
