Composition and manufacture

Junckers’s pre-finished solid-hardwood strip flooring is produced in beech, ash, oak, SylvaKet, SylvaRed, maple, jarrah, merbau and jatoba, all in a range of grades and finishes. Junckers’s drying methods stabilise the wood fibres to produce exceptionally hardwearing materials. These are then finished with hardwearing polyurethane lacquer or rich penetrative oils. A new range of surface-stained coloured boards is also available.

Size and weight

Floors are available in 14 and 22mm thicknesses; 20.5mm thick board is also available in oak, merbau, ash, jarrah and jatoba. 3,700 x 129 x 22mm; weight 16kg/m². 1,830 x 129 x 14mm; weight 9kg/m².

Appearance

Junckers flooring is available in a range of natural colours and grades. The factory-applied oil penetrates the wood fibres, making it even more hardwearing. Junckers ultra-matt lacquer offers the strength of lacquer and the appearance of oil.

Sitework

The technical department offers a total backup service to specifiers, providing expert advice on the application, installation and performance of Junckers’s products. Junckers also manufactures and supplies oil treatments and floor lacquers.

Cleaning and maintenance

Daily maintenance is limited to sweeping or vacuuming to remove surface dust or grit. Longer term, areas of obvious wear can be sanded and resealed. Junckers Friction Plus is recommended for areas where wet slip resistance is important.

Environment

The hardwood timber used by Junckers is grown in managed forests with PEFC accreditation. Merbau and jatoba are grown in managed forestry, under a strict replanting system.
