Affordable, designer, wide-plank, sustainable hardwood

The original floating hardwood floor made in Sweden by Kahrs has a 150-year track record of quality, beauty and environmental stewardship. The Kährs Spirit Unity Collection offers a range of beautiful designer floating floors in oak, maple, walnut and hickory with a various surface and edge details. All of these eco-friendly floors come with a finish that will keep its brilliance, beauty and durability for many years at an affordable price. The easy, DIY, patented Woodloc interlocking system makes installation a snap, saving you time and money.

These floors are constructed using the Kährs patented parquet multi-layer technology, with an 1/16" hardwood wear layer, an eco-core middle layer made with formaldehyde-free high density fiberboard ( 75% recycled HDF) and a wooden bottom layer. The total thickness is 3/8” (10 mm).

The Kährs Spirit Unity Collection is made to the highest standards of health which exceed both California CARB2 and European standards for toxic emissions in adhesives and finishes. All of Kährs hardwood products use materials from sustainable sources certified either by FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) or EMAS (European Eco-Management Audit Scheme) in Europe. They are all US Lacey Act compliant, and 88% of their raw materials are sourced within 200 km of the Kährs factory.

Why we like it

Kahrs is our favorite hardwood floor for all the right reasons. Since 1857 this company has earned its stripes by inventing the engineered floor and has continually raised the bar on environmental standards, quality, design and performance. Once you install a Kahrs floor, you'll agree that Kahrs' products are perfectly engineered, beautiful, stable and environmentally pure.

Kahrs is also our first choice for use over radiant heat because it was designed specifically for that purpose in Sweden. It doesn't gap, buckle or warp. Just to give you an idea of its stability, two of our customers with Kährs flooring had flooded homes and, after two weeks time and lots of ventilation, the flooring returned to its original form. These difficult experiences tell you a lot about how a floor is made and why we would not settle for anything less.
