Flooring is categorized into different grades by selecting pieces according to specific characteristics, ensuring consistency and uniformity within each grade. While every grade of Aacer flooring is guaranteed for durability, each provides its own unique look for your floor.
Edge Grain
Specially selected for its unique straight grain, this grade appeals to a very discerning buyer. Ideal selection for homes and businesses with radiant heat because it has up to 50% less shrinkage than standard grades, providing greater stability. Edge grain is available in a variety of species in combination with certain grades of Aacer Flooring.
