The advantage of Engineered Oak boards over Solid Oak boards is that the boards are much more stable.

They are very resistant to shrinkage, they do not cup or twist in the same way solid boards do. This makes them ideal for use where under floor heating is to be installed; the heating system thermostat should be set at 26 degrees centigrade.

Construction: 6mm solid Oak board bonded to 14mm Birch ply an overall depth of 20mm. Assorted widths and lengths available.
