Summary:
The Marchand Luxury Oak timber flooring collection is now available at Floorboards showrooms in Hamilton and Tauranga. This New Zealand brand of timber flooring offers long-term performance and natural beauty that makes a statement in high-end interior spaces.
A refined timber flooring option for thoughtfully designed new homes
Choosing flooring for a new build is rarely just about colour. It is about finding a product that looks right, feels right underfoot, and will still hold its own years down the track. That is where Marchand Luxury Oak stands out.
Available through Floorboards, this engineered European oak range is well-suited to homeowners, builders, and interior designers looking for a timber floor with presence, warmth, and an exceptional finish. The wide boards give it a calm, generous look, while the construction behind the surface adds confidence for everyday living.
What is Marchand Luxury Oak?
Marchand Luxury Oak is a premium engineered timber flooring collection made from European oak. Each board features a 6mm oak wear layer on a 20mm board, giving it more depth than many standard engineered flooring options.
Why Marchand Luxury Oak suits new builds
New builds often call for finishes that can balance aesthetics with practicality. Marchand Luxury Oak does that particularly well. It has the visual softness and natural character people want from timber, but it is also engineered for stability in New Zealand homes. Our expert installers at Floorboards can supply and professionally install your chosen Marchand Luxury Oak timber flooring.
Built with long-term performance in mind
One of the key features of Marchand Luxury Oak is its 6mm wear layer. That added thickness means the floor can be refinished multiple times over its lifetime, which is a major advantage for clients wanting a floor with genuine longevity.
The boards are also finished with nine layers of water-based UV lacquer, helping protect the surface while keeping the look of real oak front and centre. It is this balance of durability and finish that makes the range appealing for high-end residential projects.
Wide boards and finish options create a sense of luxury
Marchand Luxury Oak flooring is available in planks 2200mm long by 240mm wide. Once installed, these wide planks give the floor a broad, elegant feel that works especially well in open-plan spaces. The board's width allows the grain, texture, and oak's variation to show clearly, which adds to the overall sense of quality.
The collection currently includes 12 timber finishes, along with a choice of textures and edge details. Some clients will prefer a cleaner, more refined look, while others will want something with a little more texture and character. Having those options makes it easier to line the floor up with the rest of the interior palette.
Talk with our team at Floorboards about the texture and finish details available on your chosen colour in the collection:
Texture options
Knotted: gives a cleaner overall look, with lighter knot density and a smoother, more refined finish.
Rugged: has more visible character, with a denser appearance and a more textured, time-worn feel.
Finish details
Micro bevelled edge: suits interiors that lean more contemporary and understated.
Handmade bevelled edge: brings a more crafted feel and works well in both modern and traditional homes.
Aged: introduces subtle variation inspired by weathered timber.
Bandsawn: adds stronger surface texture and a more distinctive visual finish.
