Barlinek engineered wood flooring requires no additional finishing work. You can enjoy its full beauty immediately after installation.
The lacquering technology for the Barlinek floorboard uses a multi-layered coating of acrylic lacquer hardened by UV rays. The floor is coated with up to 7 layers of a lacquer system by leading producers in the industry.
Resistance to intensive use – abrasion
When selecting a lacquer for rooms in public facilities where greater foot traffic can be expected, choose a floor finished with professional semi-matte or matte lacquer. Any mechanical damage on such surfaces will be less visible than on highly polished lacquers. On a brushed surface finished with matte lacquer, any minor scratches which may appear will be far less visible than on a floor without a brushed surface.
Floors finished with high-gloss lacquer are not recommended for intensively used places. On this lacquer, light reflecting from the floor surface gives the impression that every scratch is much more visible. Lacquers with high gloss are more recommended for living rooms, for example, where there is not so much movement passing through.
Microclimatic conditions
The wood is appropriately hard, healthy, and above all natural. This is why it also slightly expands/shrinks under the influence of a room’s microclimatic conditions. For this reason Barlinek uses flexible lacquers which harmonise perfectly with the wooden floor.
Laminate and lacquer
What would happen if something hard, like a mug or pan, fell on the floor and the lacquer did not have sufficient flexibility? Wood will naturally yield to the force, but when the lacquer does not yield along with it, this results in the lacquer cracking. So lacquer on wood cannot be compared with laminates.
The lacquer test is mainly concerned with its resistance to abrasion and elasticity. These two parameters are of the utmost importance for users of wooden floors.
Key test
It often happens that a customer does a key test on laminates and on wooden floors, claiming indigantly that the floor is scratching. This is true, but would lacquer on a car pass this test? Of course not, there is no chance of any lacquer standing up to this type of action.
Professional lacquer
Super-resistant lacquer works excellently even in heavily used rooms. Lacquer resistant to food stains. Winner of a Swedish abrasion resistance test.
An excellent solution for impressive elegant interiors.
Semi-matt lacquer
Emphasises the natural character of the wood floor and the depth of its design.
Matt lacquer
Intensifies the impression of consiness and warmth.
The oil penetrates the structure of the wood, emphasizing its natural qualities and beauty.
UV oil finished floors
UV oil forms a protective coating on the surface of the wood, increases its resistance to dirt, impregnates it and protects it against damp, as well as highlighting the natural traits of the wood. It is hardened very quickly using UV light during the production process. Some of the oil penetrates into the structure of the wood, with the rest forming a delicate layer on its surface. The floor should be oiled periodically while it is in use. The frequency of the oiling will lessen significantly with time. More information in the floor care section.
Floors finished using natural oil, known as oxidation oil (oxy)
The natural oil penetrates into the structure of the wood, impregnates it and protects it against damp, in a more visible way than UV oil. The oil slowly enters the wood structure, then hardens over about 7 days after application. It is recommended to apply Wax Care Plus (natural oil) to the surface of the floor immediately after laying it. More information in the floor care section.
Lacquered floors
Oiled floors
Among the different floor finishes there are three treatments that are the most characteristic.
Brushing is a modern method of highlighting the natural beauty of wood grain and enhancement of its structure. Invoice brushed the floor is palpable to the touch.
Phasing is a small cutting, edge boards, emphasizes the outline of individual boards, which visually increases the size of the room.
Staining – Barlinek produces stained floors in lacquered and natural oiled finishings. Barlinek floorboards may be stained one colour, or with two thanks to the latest technology.
