Solid wood floors have some major drawbacks. Humidity fluctuations can cause the wood to warp, uneven subfloors require time-consuming sanding prior to installation, etc. In addition, a large amount of precious hardwood is needed to produce just a few square metres of flooring. Multilayer hardwood floor from HARO easily solves these issues by using a balanced 3-layer construction. Here, the grain of the wood runs in different directons, which reduces the natural swelling and shrinking of the wood by up to 70% And compared to solid wood floors, multilayer hardwood floor is also the better choice in terms of sustainability, eco-friendliness, and price-performance ratio.

Surface finishWhether it’s the hard-wearing PERMADUR natural matt finish, the bioTec oil-wax finish, or naturaLin plus, the “breathing” natural oil finish – we put the same care and attention into all our surface finishes. From the selection of the raw materials to the application of up to 7 coats required for the PERMADUR finish, we take care that they will provide superior durability. Precious wood wear layerThis is the top layer of a multilayer hardwood floor. It consists of carefully selected premium wood that has been well seasoned and dried, and gently processed. Rely on our decades of experience in the production of hardwood flooring and enjoy the good feeling that you made the best choice.

Middle layerThis layer consists of cross-glued solid spruce fingerstrips which ensure the lifelong stability of HARO HARDWOOD FLOORING. Though invisible from the outside, this layer is very labour and time-intensive to manufacture. We use only spruce of the same wood moisture content and the same orientation of annual rings. This is essential to guarantee that your hardwood flooring will remain stable. The task of the middle layer is to balance tensions in the top layer and thus guarantee maximum dimensional stability.

Bottom layerA backing veneer made of softwood further increases the floor’s stability.

InsulationInsulation underlays have a sound-absorbing effect and reduce strain on body joints and spine. We offer underlays in different materials that are either factory-laminated to the back of the board or available in loose rolls.

HARO PARQUET 4000

Made in GermanyWe manufacture all of our quality flooring at a single site in Germany – with the legendary German high precision engineering.

Real WoodHamberger Flooring GmbH & Co. KG leads the way in implementing the Real Wood campaign to ensure real wood floors are correctly identified as such.

Ü markTo assure that constructional quality standards are met, building materials have to be tested and certified with respect to technical, ecological and health properties. The Ü mark at-tests that a national technical approval (“bauaufsichtliche Zu-lassung”) has been granted, which is required for all parquet and wood floors in Germany. For this approval, the materials used and the emissions are evaluated. Hamberger is the first manufacturer that has been granted this national technical ap-proval for two-layer and three-layer parquet by the Deutsche In-stitut für Bautechnik (DIBT). This ensures product safety for manufacturers, dealers and installers. Consumers have the peace of mind of knowing that the product presents no health hazards.
