Kährs Wooden Floors


Over the past 150 years, Kährs has nurtured a love affair with wood. Recognising nature as its inspiration and provider, Kährs is not only interested in processing raw materials, but in making the most of wood's intrinsic beauty and expressiveness.

Each individual log of wood is assessed in order to exploit its natural shape and pattern so as to create a unique wooden floor with character. Because we've been working with wood since 1857, you can be sure of getting everything you have a right to expect from a genuine, quality wooden floor.

THE WORLD'S FIRST ENGINEERED PARQUET

A major milestone in our history, and in the history of wood, was passed in 1941 when Gustaf Kähr was granted a patent for multi-layer parquet boards. The world’s first engineered parquet came to light.

This construction made floors more stable, and utilized the raw material in a new way that gave greater consideration to resources. Today it still forms the basis of the technique we use to manufacture our floors.
