Australian Native
That organic, natural, warm feeling.
The Australian Native pre-finished range features a micro bevel profile and a matte finish to achieve a floor that’s earthy and effortless. Consistent in quality and structural stability, Australian Native is constructed using a low shrinkage, ecofriendly Hevea core and a tough Australian hardwood lamella. The production incorporates a licensed Välinge locking system, which uses a single action installation method, saving time and creating a floor that can be enjoyed instantly.
Utilising the latest in environmentally friendly UV coatings, the Bona UV Lacquer system system delivers a floor finish similar to a stylish oiled floor but with the durability and protection a UV lacquer offers. Australian Native engineered flooring provides a practical yet stylish option suited for day-to-day use in most applications.
In addition, Australian Native range offers Rustic Blackbutt. A full featured floor with prominent gum veins, gum pockets, trails, burls and borer holes. The feature does not interfere with the structural integrity of the floor, but offers a glimpse of the intense life in the Australian Bush; drought, ambrosia attack and fierce wildfires are just some of the elements a tree needs to endure to produce these beautiful and interesting features. An impressive choice, adding value and character to any interior.
