Water Resistant Wide Plank Hardwood Flooring from Kahrs, Life

Water Resistant Wide Plank Hardwood Flooring from Kahrs, Life
Introducing Kahrs Life: a new collection of sustainable, affordable hardwood flooring that meets the aesthetic and performance requirements of both residential and commercial buildings. Like all Kahrs products, it is eco-friendly and meets and exceeds the US and European environmental safety standards (FloorScore certified) for indoor air quality.
Kahrs Life offers a new line of wood flooring with exceptional durability and authentic modern design with properties better than luxury vinyl tile (LVT). It features a highly select grade of oak and walnut that comes in 10 shades. A real wood veneer is applied over a next generation HDF core that is highly impact resistant and can handle just about any punishing foot traffic. Kahrs Life is very stable and will handle fluctuations in temperature and humidity and is suited for radiant heated subfloors.
The surface of each plank is treated with an innovative UV-cured acrylic matt lacquer that protects the floor, making it dirt resistant, easy to clean while maintaining the natural and beautiful wood feeling. It also provides outstanding scratch resistance and water resistant properties, so there are fewer worries about everyday traffic and spills.
NOTE: This floor should NOT be Steam Mopped. Steam Mopping may damage this floor.
Kahrs Life products are tough enough to satisfy the specifications for a class 31 use, which in Europe means, a medium commercial use for hotel rooms, conference areas, offices, villas, apartments, as well as high traffic residences that involve large families with kids and pets.
Like all Kahrs hardwood engineered floors, they are fast and easy to install with a 5G Drop and Lock joint system. These DIY floors are ideal for renovations as they can be installed directly over most existing subfloors and even over vinyl, laminate or ceramic tile. (refer to installation guidelines for complete instructions).
Water Resistant
This flooring will withstand water spills on the surface. This means you do not have to worry if you spill water or leave a wet towel on the floor for up to 24 hours. It does not mean you can install it at the bottom of your pool, or expect it to hold up during a flood - only porcelain tile can do that - but for typical spills you clean up after, it should be fine. Read this informational article to learn more about water resistance vs. waterproof.
Dimensions: 5-7/8” wide x 71-1/4” long x 1/4" (7mm) thick, 35.069 sf/box
100% Wood Construction
1st layer - Real Hardwood veneer with improved finish that is water resistant, highly scratch resistant, impact resistant, and non-yellowing
2nd layer - Densified HDF Wood Core - more durable then your typical HDF, with 5G Click Lock joint
The wide-plank select-grade oak or walnut appearance together with the extra durability and moisture resistance makes this collection as good or better than any of their higher-end products. In fact, this is Kahrs only collection that carries a water resistance guarantee (see warranty for more details.) That makes it ideal for medium commercial applications or busy homes where budget and durability are big concerns. While the thin real wood veneer cannot be sanded, Kahrs has made the surface so tough it will likely never need sanding.
