The wooden flooring segment has evolved significantly over the years and new-age technology and technique are making sure that the industry continues to thrive.
ADVANTAGE WOOD
Wooden flooring is gradually becoming popular due to various reasons. Firstly, it has exceptional durability and higher shelf life. Second, it is a practical choice, ideal for both homes and corporate setups and now manufacturers have started offering new quality depending on the heavy footing requirements.
AC3 is being used in homes, while AC4 and AC5 are being adopted in commercial spaces. “Additionally, new wood flooring comes with simplified installation and consequently requires reduced time and labour requirements. It is also cost-sensitive and may be purchased at various price points without compromising on quality. Finally, it goes without saying that wooden flooring comes with an aesthetically pleasing appearance where you have the option of opting for flooring among different shades of wood. The architecture and interiors of any room can be enhanced and given a timeless charm by its natural beauty, warmth, and adaptability. Its strength, sturdiness, ease of installation, competitive pricing, high quality, and aesthetic appeal make wood flooring superior to other kinds of flooring,” says Arvind Joshi, Senior VP, Marketing, at Greenpanel Industries Ltd. It has excellent insulation properties, providing better temperature regulation and reducing energy consumption. It is also known for its hypoallergenic qualities, making it a healthy choice for those with allergies or respiratory sensitivities.
