Special features of larch floorboards

Larch wood is one of the heaviest and hardest softwoods in Europe. The wood is rich in resin, weather-resistant, and therefore perfect for outdoor use, as well as suitable for interior applications.

Origin of the larch logs

Our trained team of forestry experts exclusively selects European larch tree trunks (Latin: Larix decidua) from the mountainous regions of German forests. Almost all selected logs are PEFC and/or FSC certified. The selection of tree trunks is done according to our high-quality standards- The production of wide and long planks requires exceptionally straight and low-knot tree trunks with a large diameter. We manufacture solid wood planks and engineered planks from larch wood that can be up to 10 meters long and 30 centimeters wide.

Room- Length Planks

Room-length planks are generous in size, extending the entire length of the room where they are installed. Long, uniform planks create a sense of spaciousness and visual tranquility. We manufacture these planks in 50 cm intervals. The installation with visible or shadow gaps ensures a clean line and distinct visual appeal of our plank floors.

Random Lengths

Random lengths offer an ideal wood yield while providing very long planks. The planks are manufactured in various lengths within a specific length range. With minimal wood waste, random lengths are both economically and ecologically attractive. They create a seamless and expansive look, allowing for the seamless connection of large, open spaces.

Floor Gradings

The appearance of the planks is defined by the natural characteristics of the wood, such as color, knots, and other features. To ensure high-quality plank flooring, each tree and plank is assessed and sorted according to our quality criteria. Knots and other imperfections are fixed and filled, resulting in a uniformly beautiful plank surface. The images below are indicative.
