      The latest cross-engineering technology

      The new solid flooring - StayFlat technology

      Lifewood is, in essence, a three-layered floorboard made of premium grade WA timber that is produced wider and longer. By cross-engineering the product, it allows the core and bottom layers to utilise the less attractive parts of the same timber, leaving the best-looking timber for the top.

      This design produces a solution for the timber that is usually unsuitable for premium grade flooring (if it was produced as a solid board) and so minimises waste. So not only is it using our local timbers more responsibly and sustainably, but it also creates a floorboard that is guaranteed to stay premium for a lifetime.

      1. Polish – 7 coats of very low emission European polyurathane that is tough and non-yellowing.
      2. Scientifically tested density – Essential for matching floors to individual lifestyles.
      3. Tight bevel – Minimises shadow lines between boards and provides that authentic timber look. Easier cleaning.
      4. Face grading – Hand-selected face for the highest quality appearance. No ugly boards.
      5. Colour selection – Essential for even batch colour and control of colour variation without staining, so you get what you ordered.
      6. Precise machining – Essential for high quality floor appearance and installation.
      1. Expansion gap – Provides resistance to cupping if the floor gets wet or experiences extreme humidity.
      2. Cross-lamination – Essential to resist cupping and warping. Allows timber to be used more sustainably.
      3. Controlled moisture content and seasoning – Essential for stability and reduce shrinkage.
      4. Exact layer thickness – Ensures stability and increased sanding life.
      5. Glue – Very low emission European glue that is safe and guarantees the boards do not delaminate.
      6. Polished all surfaces – Improves stability and moisture resistance.

      If you're the kind of person that is very particular with what you showcase in your home then the Lifewood range was designed for you...

       

      Designed to please the eyes...

      • The technology behind our Lifewood product means we can consistently select only the best-looking timber for your floor – the ugly bits simply don't make the grade and get used in the unseen (underside) of the boards.
      • By sourcing only local timbers with a quintessential wood character for the range, Lifewood provides that exclusive West Australian look for any home.
      • Because the boards are hand-graded we can achieve maximum uniformity in colours between our showroom and your home – a process traditionally unachievable with existing flooring installations.
      • We've also produced the floorboards long and wide, which has always been considered the premium look around the world, but has not been an achievable option until now. This eliminates the use of thin, narrow, short, highly-varied and mixed grade boards.
      • To complete the picture, installation by Perth's largest team of craftsmen, with a combined 150 years of flooring experience, ensures all the finest details are attended to. After all, how your floor is installed is the difference between a good-looking finish and a great-looking finish.

      Designed for peace of mind...

      • All Lifewood floors give you the choice between pre-finished or sanded & polished boards. A pre-finished floor will mean installation is quick, clean and can be walked on instantly, so you don't need to wait for weeks or seek alternative accommodation.
      • The entire Lifewood selection consists of only durable hardwoods that will withstand the tougher Aussie lifestyle, suitable for kitchens, kids and other hardwearing factors.
      • Utilising this progressive local flooring technology also means your floor remains safer from cupping, warping, lifting, strong colour variation, excessive shrinking and other known issues with solid timber, so that your floor is guaranteed to look as good in years to come as it did the day it was installed.
      • Every floor is backed by a local lifetime warranty, for added peace of mind.
      • We are at the forefront for environmental and low emission solutions with our international alliance with both Dynea, Sika & Bona– leaders in gluing and polish technology.
      • All installers are vetted for family values and accountability, so you will always feel comfortable to have them in your home.

      Designed to please the heart...

      • WA owned & grown – no imported or illegally logged timbers, ever.
      • Sustainable legacy. For every square metre of flooring you purchase, an Australian hardwood tree is planted. Meaning more trees are planted than ever cut down, growing forestry for the benefit of your children.
      • Tackling climate change. Wood is both natural and renewable, and when sourced sustainably it actually helps reduce the amount of carbon dioxide contributed to our environment.
      • Lifewood is setting a new standard for responsible forestry practices. In partnership with the local government's Forest Products Commission and Australian Craftswood & Timbers, we source only renewable timbers and then maximise their use by reducing wastage.
      • Supporting local industry. The timber industry sustains the south west of our state, so when purchasing a Lifewood floor you are also investing back into the WA economy.
      • As a local family business we believe in a fair go for everyone, so you and your home will be treated with the same respect as our own.
      • Putting Western Australia on the international map. With Lifewood now exported internationally, we have built this brand as something that all West Australians can be proud of.

      Designed to please the value conscious...

      • You can literally save thousands when purchasing a pre-finished floor, as less labour is incurred when installing.
      • From $159/m2 we can guarantee you a more uniform look with a premium grade that is wider, longer, thicker, safer and installed in days not weeks.
      • Because the floor lasts longer by remaining stable, so too does the value of your investment, plus you avoid costly repairs later down the track.
