2023 Hardwood Flooring Trends

A Hardwood Flooring Manufacturer-Songlinfloor’s Flooring Trends Idea

Wood floors are the best option of all floor covering materials because of their natural look and long-lasting property. Sonlinfloor has been engaged in the production of wood flooring for 27 years, the products are mainly exported to European countries, North America other developed countries, and as a hardwood flooring factory, we have more opportunities to obtain a more objective trend.

How do we develop a new flooring style?

Every year we are constantly developing new wood floors for the leading flooring companies all over the world, and these new products are innovated on the basis of continuously popular products or introduce advanced technologies to make up for the shortcomings of past products. So trend-setting flooring is basically a continuation and improvement of products that have been recognized in the market before.

The raw materials supply will also become another factor for the market to develop products. The flooring product development can not succeed without enough raw material supply. After all, hardwood flooring factory production products are required to maintain a basic capacity, rather than purely handmade wood flooring products which rely on labor.

What will be the trend in 2023 in the flooring industry? Songlinfloor will introduce you to the trends of 2023 in terms of color, texture, structure, style, and laying methods.

1. Natural Color hardwood flooring

The Natural color oak hardwood floors always rank in the top sale.

Songlinfloor produces mainly oak flooring in the past 10 years, 90% of the products are made of oak as raw material, we use the local Chinese honey oak, and we use European oak, we also use a lot of American oak in recent years.

Oak natural color is always popular, Oak hardwood flooring with natural oil or lacquer coating always rank the top sale in the past. No matter what product collection we develop, oak natural color will always be there.

The selected grade engineered flooring will increase significantly in 2023 when the market slows down, low-end products are difficult for wholesaler customers to obtain good profits, the selected wood flooring market competition is not fierce, high profits will get the attention of high-end wood flooring wholesalers, distributors.

Tannin in oak with some chemical coating always makes the wood floor color looks mature, the content of tannin in each piece of oak floors is not the same, even if not balanced on 1 piece of hardwood floors, after the process of chemical reactive stain, oak flooring color will produce rich color tone, the flooring will be stained with time and age, which simply stain the floors hard to achieve the effect.

In chemical staining, the smoked color is the most used color. The fuming process is a reaction between the wood floor and ammonia in a closed space, and the time of the process determines the shade of the chemical stain, which can be as dark or as light as the design requires. Please don't forget the smoked color in the new collections you develop.
