100 percent natural, elegant appearance and lifelong durability.
Anyone who appreciates these attributes swears by parquet.
Parquet flooring makes a room really cozy and no other floor covering can hold a candle to parquet when it comes to feeling barefoot. We have summarized some reasons that speak for parquet for you:
The elegant look
Improvements are not necessary, nature has done a good job. The irregular, more or less finely grained surface of parquet looks beautiful, lively and elegant. Wood oil provides a natural finish.
Healthy living floor
Parquet is largely free of harmful substances. It also regulates the indoor climate: thanks to its open-pored structure, excess moisture is absorbed from the air and released again.
Parquet flooring is sustainable
Parquet, whether solid or multilayer, is made of 100 percent wood – and it grows back. If you want to be on the safe side when it comes to your ecological footprint, choose local species such as beech, ash or oak. Look out for the PEFC seal for wood from sustainable forestry.
Wood lasts forever
The harder the wood (oak), the more resistant the surface. Stilettos, chair legs or claws leave hardly any marks. And if they do, after 15 years: Fine sanding and re-oiling or varnishing. With good care, parquet lasts a lifetime.
Parquet is easy to clean
Vacuum and wipe occasionally with a slightly damp, soft floor cloth – done! A few drops of Admonter Clean and Care in water are enough for cleaning.
Saugen und gelegentlich mit einem leicht feuchten, weichen Bodentuch wischen – fertig! Zur Reinigung genügen ein paar Tropfen Admonter Clean and Care in Wasser.
If you choose hard wood (oak, ash), it will also withstand the usual scratching attacks of your beloved four-legged friend. And if something goes wrong while eating, it can simply be wiped up.
Parquet doesn’t stop at underfloor heating either
Admonter parquet floors are ideally suited for use on underfloor heating systems (designed in accordance with DIN EN 1264 series). Due to the improved heat transfer and low joint formation, full-surface bonding with Admonter Elastic parquet adhesive has proven to be the ideal installation system. In principle, warm water low-temperature underfloor heating systems are recommended, whereby 29°C must not be exceeded as the limit value for the surface temperature in accordance with DIN EN 1264 (series) and ÖNORM B 2242, even in the edge zones. Installation on underfloor cooling systems is also possible.
Parquet is healthy
The essential oils in wood are mainly responsible for any health-promoting effect. Over the course of several years, they are constantly released into the air where we breathe them in. Among other things, essential oils can have pain-relieving and mood-enhancing effects, which is one of the main reasons why a parquet floor gives a room a homely, “cozy” feeling. We unconsciously perceive the scent and effects of these oils and therefore always feel comfortable in a room with a wooden floor.
