Douglas Fir or Engineered White Ash Flooring ?

We highly recommend our Engineered White Ash flooring  - Scandi, as a contemporary,  durable hardwood alternative to Douglas Fir flooring - Lye and Soap finish. Douglas Fir flooring is unquestionably beautiful, but many clients are unaware that Douglas Fir is a softwood (the only softwood / engineered pine flooring that we produce) and as such moderately durable.

If you are seeking a Scandi Style Douglas Fir floor, but want a low maintenance, hard-wearing alternative we strongly suggest our Engineered White Ash Scandi flooring.

Engineered Ash produces a stunningly similar, white wooden floor with the benefit of natural durability. American White Ash is a beautiful, pale hardwood, enhanced by our Lye & Soap effect stain allowing natural variations in colour, grain and figuring  to show through. 

American White Ash as with all our timbers is a natural material. As such,each floorboard and floor are inherently unique. Method of  Installation i.e. choosing to place tonally similar boards together or apart , lighting and choice of wall colour will all have differing polarising qualities and aesthetics.

Historically Ash was used for spears and arrows due to it's optimum weight to strength ratio, making it the timber of choice for baseball bats too. Notably,  Ash is still used by  British car manufacturer Morgan to form the framework of their sportscars . Moreover Morgan Motor Cars manage their own Ash woods for this purpose.
