Lacquered parquet

easy-care and abrasion resistant

A parquet floor with a lacquered surface comes in different gloss levels from ultra matt to high gloss. Parquet lacquers offer enormous resistance to abrasion. The lacquer finish serves to protect the wear layer and guarantees the longevity of the wood floor. In addition, lacquered parquet surfaces are very easy to maintain.

Lacquered parquet: surface-treated real wood flooring

Many people still opt for real wood parquet when it comes to high-quality and durable floor coverings. There are numerous wood types and styles to choose from. An additional surface treatment can enrich both the appearance and the functionality of the floor.

What exactly is lacquered parquet?

Lacquered parquet is often also sold under the name "sealed parquet". This is because several layers of lacquer are applied to the surface of the real wood floor. Up to seven layers are possible. In this way, an almost complete sealing of the wood is achieved. UV radiation is often used to cure the lacquer as quickly as possible. Even though the lacquer reduces the natural look of the wood floor, it replaces it with an elegant and stylish new look.

What are the advantages of parquet with a lacquered surface?

Probably the biggest advantage of lacquered parquet is the fact that the sealant prevents moisture from penetrating the wood. If moisture gets on the parquet floor – for example, from rainwater on your shoes or from spilled drinks – you have enough time to wipe it up before it can get into the wood and affect it permanently. Laying lacquered parquet on underfloor heating is also no problem. Parquet with a lacquered surface is the ideal choice for dry living areas such as living rooms or bedrooms as well as for commercial areas with moderate to normal use such as hotel rooms.

Easy-care parquet with a lacquered surface reduces the need for maintenance

Another positive product feature of lacquered parquet floors that many users appreciate is the easy-care nature of the surfaces. You can save yourself time-consuming maintenance or cleaning if you choose a lacquer finish. The evenly applied layers create a homogeneous overall impression and an even surface that is easy to clean. In contrast to oiled parquet, cleaning is easier and less complicated.

The 5 most frequently asked questions about Parquet Flooring

Parquet is not suitable for installation in damp rooms. To adapt to the climatic conditions of the room, parquet planks should be stored for about 48 hours to acclimatise. As wood is a living natural material, leave an expansion gap of 10 mm between the floor and the wall when installing. You can cover this later with skirting boards or cover strips.

The colour of the parquet floor has a great influence on the overall effect of the room. Parquet in paler colours immediately brings light into the room and makes it appear larger. Dark parquet floors look noble and opulent, while exuding warmth and cosiness. Grey wooden floors create a calm, elegant ambience. Natural-coloured floors are cosy and neutral and can fit any room, be it lively or calm, rustic or elegant.

Parquet with a lacquered surface reflects more light and is easier to clean. Oiled parquet brings out the fine grain of the wood and its natural colour. It’s important that a parquet floor with a lacquered surface is maintained and, if necessary, re-oiled over time.

The general rule is that the planks should be laid lengthwise towards the light. This emphasises the shape of the room. For long and narrow rooms, it is recommended to lay parquet lengthwise.

As a natural floor covering, parquet is protected from dirt and moisture by a sealant. For initial care, it is sufficient to clean the parquet floor dry with a broom, mop or vacuum cleaner. A naturally oiled parquet floor must also be treated with a suitable agent. Clean the parquet surface either dry or with a slightly damp cloth or mop.
