HARDWOOD AND LAMINATESKahrs - Fine Swedish Wood FlooringAt Kahrs we make wood floors. Nothing but wood floors. Many of the things around us are made to be consumed quickly and replaced according the the whims of taste and trends. But with our wood floors it's exactly the opposite. It takes several generations for the raw material to grow. We need to know and love the environment to turn a tree into a beautiful wood floor that can be appreciated for generations. We know, because we at Kahrs have worked with wood since 1857 without a glance at other materials. Welcome to a brief trip around our world of unique top-class floors. Not only do you get a floor that's beautiful to look at and walk on, you also get a piece of authenticity created by nature itself. A piece of natural history. If you examine a floor from Kahrs closely, you will see that every board has a story to tell. About warm, beautiful summers and freezing cold winters. How a small seed that germinated hundreds of years age, in a beech or oak forest, has grown sky-high and matured, ready for felling. If you would like to read more about how we, as manufacturers, for all we can to allow you to live in harmony with nature, just read on. If you would like an introduction to our wide range of floors for all tastes and lifestyles, below we have all you could wish for. Because, as wheels turn faster and the world shrinks, the need for roots becomes even more important. The need to know the origin of things, that they are genuine and made by people who care and take responsibility.  Wood is a raw material as natural as air and water. Trees existed long before people and have been part of the natural ecological cycle for many millions of years. They have grown, fallen and decayed, nourishing new generations of trees. A totally renewable raw material, which people have been putting to good use in their everyday lives for generations. A new tree for every one felled. The majority of the timber we process into beautiful wood floors comes from sustainable Swedish forests. All trees are felled selectively, which is a traditional, prudent and ecological method. For each tree used, new trees are planted, guaranteeing that there will be new forests for future generations to fell. It is startling to think that the acorn that fell to the ground early in the 18th century, and sprouted, is now a fully-grown oak tree, ready for felling. Or that the beech tree, which has taken a century to grow over 20 metres high, seen wild boar rooting about. And that these natural ploughs have made it easier for new beech seedlings to struggle through the forest canopy towards light.  Natures Design & Shape. Instead of altering the raw material according to our own ideas, we let nature take responsibility for shape and design. This means that every individual stock is assessed, and its natural shape and pattern is exploited. 1, 2 and 3 Strip Floors. Quite simply, we extract the maximum beauty of the wood piece by piece, creating one, two and three - strip floors, all with their own characteristics and individuality, This makes every board unique. Style and Life Collections. Trained eyes inspect every wear layer strip, and deft fingers sort them according to appearance. This allows us to offer wood in different styles - lively, with knots in our Life Collection, or tranquil and harmonious as in our Style Collection. Every Board Tells a Story
