Bjelin has launched versatile new smaller sizes of its state-of-the art hardened wood flooring.
Visually appealing, easy to handle and ideal for both residential and commercial environments, the new sizes, Small and Medium, are packed with ground-breaking technologies.
The new Small panels measure 1170 x 151 x 9.2mm to fit easily into cars and elevators. They also allow for creative designs and are a perfect complement to the larger and wider XXL and XL floor planks.
Due to popular demand, Bjelin's hardened wood range is also now available in a Medium size. The new size M panels are 151 x 2000 mm, and are also easy to handle and transport. For the creatively inclined, the size also makes it possible to create interesting floor patterns.
The company's Scandinavian-designed floors are developed and manufactured in Europe, sourcing premium quality wood from the forests of Croatia.
Ideal for the modern household, these 100% real wood floors use patented Woodura® surface technology from Välinge Innovation – a ground-breaking solution, which makes the floors three times as strong as alternative wood floors. They're also highly water and scratch-resistant.
Through the innovative Woodura process, a thin sheet of wood is fused on to a wood fibre core through a unique powder mix layer. Wood powder technology creates exceptionally durable and long-lasting floors, and the unique formula also makes it possible to vary the wood-based powder mix, creating different surfaces.
By using this technology, 10 times more flooring can be produced from each tree, and this is in line with the company's sustainability focus. All waste is also recycled to create more wood powder that is re-used in the Woodura process.
The patented 5G Dry® floor locking system used for these floors also eliminates the use of glue during installation. No nails or tools are needed since the installer simply clicks the panels together. Adding to this, there are watertight joints incorporated into the 5G Dry locking system. This means zero risk for leakage through the floor panels without needing extra coating or chemicals.
The Bjelin Hardened Wood floors are customised for both the residential and the commercial sectors. The award-winning commercial class 33 range is the latest addition and meets the unique demands of all commercial areas - whether this is in a hotel, restaurant, café or shop.
Bjelin offer a broad range of formats, designs and colours, from Scandinavian-inspired whites and greys to traditional warmer tones, and darker hues offering plenty of character. The products are already available in XXL and XL and now in Small and Medium sizes additionally.
"The new sizes maximise the use of wood and limit waste," says Simon Darbyshire, Managing Director, Välinge Innovation UK Ltd. "And aesthetically, we believe in the ability to adapt and optimise space. These smaller size panels reflect our commitment to efficiency, flexibility and sustainability."
The new sizes are available in Pro Matt Lacquer, which is Bjelin's best lacquer to date. The extremely durable surface makes the floor easy to maintain while protecting it from stains, making it ideal for heavy traffic areas like hotels, restaurants, offices and shops – or the entrance of a home.
