If you desire the charm of genuine hardwood but its maintenance is too much, MSI’s W Luxury Genuine Hardwood Planks is an outstanding option. These planks offer the sturdiness and stability of plywood with the allure of authentic wood.

The flooring is luxurious and safe thanks to MSI’s proprietary ZeroSlip Technology, which dramatically reduces the risk of slips and falls.

ZeroSlip Technology: The Pinnacle of Safety

W Engineered Hardwood Flooring has our proprietary ZeroSlip technology, formulated for safety and security underfoot. This technology offers exceptional slip resistance far exceeding the industry’s standard, significantly reducing the risk of slips on wet and dry floors.

This makes the flooring ideal for diverse applications, from the high-moisture bathroom to the spill-prone kitchen.   

The Authenticity of Real Wood

Every product in our W collection features a layer of 100% real wood, giving you authentic wood bolstered by the additional perks of multiple plywood layers. The engineered core provides each plank’s durability for a well-rounded and beautiful option.

The plywood layers are hidden by a sheet of authentic hardwood, so you’ll get the aesthetic and practical advantages of genuine wood. For example, real wood offers timeless beauty and impressive versatility with numerous color palettes and aesthetics.

It’s easy to clean and maintain, requiring no more than regular sweeping, vacuuming, and mopping to preserve its good looks, so it’s a practical choice, especially in busy homes.

What Is Engineered Hardwood?

Engineered hardwood features a blend of genuine wood and plywood layers. The combination meshes their high points, drawing from the plywood’s stability and durability while boasting the timeless aesthetics of genuine hardwood.

Unlike traditional hardwood planks, which feature a solid timber slab, engineered hardwood has multiple layers of plywood and wood veneers nestled beneath a thin layer of authentic wood. The lower layers are made of cross-grained plywood, while the upper layer, called the pinnacle or wear layer, is genuine hardwood. The finished product is highly durable and resilient to warping and expansion, making it an excellent, versatile alternative to solid hardwood.

Environmental Stewardship and Sustainability
