Craftsman II
Long-plank bamboo flooring

5-1/2" x 75-1/2" solid-strip

Craftsman II long-plank bamboo flooring complements a variety of décor styles from traditional to contemporary. The wider, longer planks are especially pleasing in larger rooms, install more quickly and may be floated below grade. The 7-coat German finish includes a wear layer of abrasion-resistant aluminum oxide plus two scratch-resistant, polyurethane topcoats that protect the bamboo fiber's natural strength and beauty. Craftsman II's finish is water-based and solvent-free, and its manufacturing adhesives emit less formaldehyde than is present in ambient air.
