The Mill City Collection is made by balancing a thick top layer of solid sawn French Oak over a stable ply of substrate wood. By implementing a combination of wire brushing, saw marks, and various color distressing techniques the planks look visually reclaimed. This process creates a highly authentic distressed style which is highly sought after in today’s home design market. With over 70% of the planks at full length, this line is guaranteed to impress both interior designers and hardwood engineers.This state-of-the-art coloring process is finished using WOCA Natural Oil, lightly washed, and smoked allowing it to displays the same color throughout the entire top layer. This process of color treatment enhances the wear-ability of the wood by camouflaging any deep scratches which may occur from use.The Lakefront color offers a soothing neutral tone which enhances and draws focus to surrounding wood work. Filled with a white washed earthy tint, Mill City Lakefront brings the cutting edge tech of the hardwood industry in though historic inspirations.
Mill City Lakefront has quickly become one of my favorite floors for its reclaimed look. The bonus is this reclaimed texture helps to hide scratches and the oil finish will keep the floor looking better with age.
