{"product_id":"black-knight-distressed-hardwax-oiled-oak-engineered-wood-flooring","title":"Black Knight Distressed Oak 220mm Engineered Plank","description":"\u003cp\u003eBlack Knight Distressed Oak is a very dark, near-black, distressed engineered plank that makes a clear statement. Wide 220mm boards in 2200mm lengths give the colour room to breathe, and a hardwax oil finish keeps the surface natural to the touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLook and character\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe colour is a deep charcoal black, with the oak grain and distressed marks showing as subtle texture and slightly lighter streaks. Distressing gives the face an aged, worked surface, so it looks less like a painted floor and more like old timber that has darkened with time. The hardwax oil gives a low sheen that avoids the flat, dead look some dark floors have. Black floors are bold: they suit large, bright rooms, industrial and contemporary schemes, and white or pale grey walls that throw the boards into contrast. Expect light dust and footprints to show more than on a mid-tone floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and specification\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach plank is 15mm deep, with a 4mm real oak top layer bonded to the core. The core is multi-ply, with layers running in opposite directions so the board stays flat through the seasons. Boards are 2200mm long and 220mm wide, with 2.904 m² in every pack. All four edges carry a 4V bevel, which gives each plank a crisp outline across the room. Hardwax oil soaks into the wood and hardens near the surface, combining a natural feel with good resistance to everyday wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLiving and dining rooms, bedrooms, hallways, kitchens and conservatories are all good places for it. It can go up the stairs as well, finished with matching \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stair-nosing\"\u003estair nosing\u003c\/a\u003e on each tread.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and underfloor heating\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis floor is suitable for underfloor heating, and you can compare it with the rest of our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/underfloor-heating-flooring\"\u003eunderfloor heating flooring\u003c\/a\u003e.
