There are 15 apartments at 910 Union Street in Park Slope Brooklyn, New York that have Vermont Plank Flooring’s “Roasted” Red Oak Flooring. The developer, Perry Finkelman, CEO of American Development Group, sourced his flooring carefully and was impressed with our Forest Stewardship Council certification for responsible forestry.
The “Roasting” of our Red Oak Plank Flooring means the wood is thermally treated in kilns upwards of 500 degrees without oxygen. This caramelizes the wood and turns the wood dark all the way through. This is good because if you ever had to sand the floor you don’t need to stain it dark. Also, by treating the wood this way it makes the fibers inert. Therefore, this floor won’t move and is great over radiant heat.
The floor was finished with a zero VOC finish called Rubio Monocoat. For this project they finished the floors with the Rubio 5% White Oil one coat finish.
