American Oak
American Oak is a popular species for flooring due to its interesting and pronounced grain pattern. American Oak is also a species that takes stain extremely well, meaning that a multitude of colours can be achieved with little fuss. Hurfords import raw American Oak feed stock, and we then then the timber is re-dried, treated, machined and graded.
American Oak is grown predominantly on the East Coast of the United States. All the White Oak raw material that Hurfords source is from reputable sawmills that practice sustainable forestry.
