Gradings
HØRNING Castleplank comes in several gradings, which vary according to type of wood and dimension. Castleplank is made of fresh wood tailored to the dimensions of the plank floors. On the whole, large dimensions will include the most variations, knots, fillings etc.
Wood is a wonderful natural material, so variation vis-à-vis descriptions and photos will always occur. Any samples show only dimension and texture and cannot show the grading. Variations will certainly occur between small samples and actual deliveries.
Exquisit
General uniform color and structure. Variations due to growth conditions will exist. Very small, healthy knots may be found. Whirls, small scratches, cross grains and brownheart may be found to a small extent. Also, this grade involves that the wider and longer the planks are, the more and bigger variations, knots etc. will be found.
Living
A more characteristic look with natural colors and wood structure (natural growth rings allowed). Small healthy knots allowed. Scratches in the surface are rare. Open knots and bigger cracks are filled. Mirror, whirls, minor open scratches, insignificant sapwood or brown heart, cross grains and silicon stains may be found depending of the wood specie. In principle, no dead knots, sapwood, ingrown bark, pith etc.
Country
A very vibrant appearance with all the natural colour variations and wood textures. All types of knots, chips, brown core, filling of knots and cracks occur. Open knots, cracks and fillings may occur.
