Each piece is pre-finished with UV cured polyurethane varnish or oil. Materials contain no substances that will evaporate, and all products are safe. Our products’ stability and tolerance to changes in relative humidity make them suitable in places that are recommended for solid hardwood flooring; such as basements, kitchens, power rooms, and utility rooms. The only requirement is a standard room temperature [68-76 F / 18 22 C and relative humidity of 40-60%]. Pianeta Legno Floors can be even installed above radiant-heated floors.
Engineered hardwood floors are more stable and durable with the extra advantage of being easily installed. It can be glued, stapled or nailed to any subfloor; concrete, tile, or even over existing hardwood floors. Thick solid top layer (up to 1 /4” -6.3mm) allows sanding and re-finishing to be done up to five times. Multiple layers and the unique engineering process guarantees lifetime stability and shape retention.
There is much less time involved in installation of Pianeta Legno hardwood flooring. Factory finish eliminates the need for sanding and finishing after the installation. Engineered hardwood floors are hygienic, long-lasting, and easy to clean and maintain. You can dust mop, vacuum, and wipe with a damp mop or cloth as needed. Use floor cleaners with no residue or abrasives. You don’t need to polish, wax or buff.

1 – Top Layer: We only use carefully selected premium quality solid wood for this layer. The sufficient thickness of the layer (up to 1 /4” -6.3mm) allows re-sanding to be done up to 5 times as needed. Unless stated otherwise, our products are micro-beveled edge. The finish on our products consists of multi coats of Ultraviolet cured, “6% or less glossy” Polyurethane or it may be an oiled finish. Pianeta Legno Engineered Hardwood Flooring is not prone to damages like dents and scratches under normal wear and tear.
2 – Bottom Layer: Pianeta Legno uses the best man-made plantation wood for the core. Multiple layers of wood (5 to 11 layers, depending on the width of the wood species) are assembled in a cross-grained structure for superior dimensional stability. To assemble these multiple layers, we use a special adhesive that is moisture resistant. Therefore, all of our products counteract the natural tendency of wood, which contracts and expands during fluctuations in humidity and temperature. The bottom layer is the back of the flooring that will be directly glued down to the floor. Pianeta Legno Hardwood Flooring can be installed to almost any subfloor, including concrete, glass, tile, linoleum, or even existing hardwood floors. We always recommended using our state of the art Italian made elastic single or two components “Hypoallergenic” glues.
