The engineered wood floor

In 1941 Kährs was awarded a patent for the multilayer floor, the construction of today's engineered hardwood floor, which the company says remains the global standard in parquet flooring. In 1958 it produced the first factory-lacquered floors, and in 1999 it introduced the first parquet floor with the glueless Woodloc® joint, followed by Woodloc® 5S in 2009.
