Muller Graff - Italia Classics Herringbone - Trieste MGICHB1201
Trieste from Muller Graff's Italia Classics Herringbone series delivers a classic parquet look with the benefits of modern engineering. Crafted from French oak, each plank is 3.54 inches wide and 23.62 inches long and features a wire-brushed texture that accentuates the grain. The 15 mm total thickness includes a durable 4 mm wear layer. A UV coating seals the surface against everyday wear and fading, while micro-beveled edges ensure crisp definition in the herringbone pattern. The engineered construction resists expansion and contraction, promoting dimensional stability.
Trieste is intended for glue-down installation on or above grade. Its smaller boards simplify layout of the herringbone pattern and allow installation in hallways or compact rooms where wide planks might be impractical. Each carton covers approximately 9.29 square feet and contains 16 pieces; installers should include about 10 percent extra material for cutting and pattern alignment. The water-resistant core makes the floor suitable for kitchens and entryways where occasional moisture is expected, though standing water should be avoided. A residential warranty assures long-term performance.
