Range of species
The manufacturing process by which Multi Top Floor flooring® is made is very flexible.
Almost any species of wood can be used, as long as suitable raw material supplies are available. If you require a particular species that we do not show in our current range do not hesitate to ask us, if we can get the timber and a production run can be justified we can make your floor.
