Quick-Step trend for 2012: The reclaimed Look!
Posted on 21st June 2012

The recycled, vintage look is the current trend in the furniture and flooring industry. Weathered wooden floors from the mansion houses of olden times are back in again. They are wooden floors with cracks, wormholes and nail marks - in short, floors with a history that have withstood the ravages of time.

This oiled Quick-Step floor radiates a natural warm feeling and an extra matt look that highlight the authenticity of the floor. With the look and feel of an attractively aged wooden floor, these planks are the perfect answer to the current trend of weathered wood. This effect with its little dents and aged edges on the long side of the planks gives extra character and depth to the room. The dips and the notches are not repetitive which means every plank is unique.

The aged designs in the new Eligna/Perspective Wide laminate range are real eye-catchers too, from rough floors with large knots and cracks to soft floors with saw-cuts.

Saw cuts are very trendy at the moment in the furniture as well as the flooring industries. For this reason, Quick-Step has developed an innovative technology that realistically emulates the natural variations in the shape and depth of saw cuts. In addition, the tactile cross cuts also match the design on the planks perfectly. By making the saw cuts along the bottom sharper and rounded-off on top, this floor is very pleasant for walking on.

Oak planks with saw cuts and a natural finish also look great. The unique saw cut technology developed by Quick-Step has made it possible to equal the effect of a manually tooled floor to perfection. The floor has a very natural appearance and is ideal for classic as well as modern interiors.

Chestnut used to be a very popular wood variety and is fast making a comeback. The typical colour gives the floor an exceptionally warm appearance and brings that cosy look and feel into any interior. These new floors in weathered chestnut excel thanks to their timeworn appearance.

The new Quick-Step floors in weathered chestnut excel thanks to their timeworn appearance. The cracks, woodworm and nail holes give the planks a highly authentic look while the various levels of gloss suggest added depth and relief, fully highlighting the wonderful structure and welcoming warmth of chestnut wood. The planks perfectly reflect the feel and mood of old varnished floors, whose varnish has worn off over the many years of use, revealing traces of the original floor with its cracks, woodwormand nail holes. These are splendid floors suited for both country homes as well as industrial interiors.

Treatex in The Telegraph!
Posted on 19th April 2012

This is an article from the telegraph, to see the full story click the logo below:

To parquet, to parquet; hassles doing up a detached cottage; inheriting a listed property; and the pitfalls of an interest-only mortgage.

Under our kitchen lino we’ve discovered an old parquet floor, mostly a mahogany colour with patches worn to beech. We’d love to have the whole floor pale but power-sanding and household bleach have had little effect. Is there any way to lighten the darker parquet?

David Snell writes: I think perhaps it’s the dark wood that reflects the original colour and the lighter areas are those that have been damaged by water, heat or the dropping of things like hot fat. You’ll obviously beg to differ but I’ve never been convinced that timber flooring of any type is really suitable for kitchens and bathrooms, and the previous occupants obviously agreed when they covered it up with the linoleum.

Be that as it may, let’s take it from here. I don’t think you’ll ever get the whole floor to lighten without replicating the original damage; you’ve already sanded it down and it is still patchy. The other choice is to try to darken the light areas to match the rest of the floor.

I suggest you get some trial pots of various woodstains and then, in a discreet corner or underneath a kitchen unit, try out small patches to see which one works the best. Once you have your colour you’ll need to seal it.

The product that I’ve found to be the best is Treatex Hardwax Oil Traditional, which you paint onto the floor. It’s not cheap but it does the job. Thereafter a cleaning additive by the same company, Treatex (01844 260416; www.treatex.co.uk), which is added to water and applied with a damp mop, will maintain the sheen.
