The team at Hurfords were delighted to be chosen to bring their Australian Native Engineered Timber flooring to the Massey University project in 2022. Great care and attention to detail was taken to ensure the finished product perfectly matched the vision for this prestigious university building and its public space.
The installation executed by The Wooden Floor Company is of the highest workmanship. This was paired with a floor that is consistent in quality and structural stability. Australian Native is constructed using a low shrinkage, ecofriendly Hevea core and a tough Australian hardwood lamella - in this case Blackbutt is the specie. The production incorporates a licensed Välinge locking system, which uses a single action installation method, saving time and creating a floor that can be enjoyed instantly.
Utilising the latest in environmentally friendly UV coatings, the 6 coat system delivers a floor finish similar to an oiled floor but with the durability and protection a UV lacquer offers. Australian Native engineered flooring provides a practical yet stylish option suited for day-to-day use and to create a space that is sure to impress with its sophisticated aesthetic.
The Hurfords team are experts at crafting beautiful timber flooring and their product on the project for Massey University stands as a testament to this with the end result a timeless space.
