How Green is Your Behavior?
| Survey says :The results are in: When asked what flooring material they want in their kitchen, halls, bedrooms and entryway, homeowners say that wood is the way to go. Realtors agree -- a national survey by real estate agents conducted by the National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA), found that 90 percent believe homes with wood floors sell faster. Despite all the alternatives available today, genuine hardwood continues to attract admirers with its timeless appeal and warmth. At one time, choices in hardwood floors were fairly limited. Homeowners had only a handful of options. But that has changed dramatically. Recognizing the increase in demand, flooring manufacturers have broadened their product lines to reflect the diversity in tastes and budgets. For example, today's homeowners can choose whether they want plank, strip or parquet hardwood flooring, and in what width or thickness. They can determine whether they prefer solid wood or engineered wood. Of course, homeowners must also select the species they want, and what grade. Grade is generally determined by how clear or variegated the appearance of the wood is. Most types of hardwood are available either pre-finished or unfinished. Special "hand scraping" techniques are also available to give floors an aged look and feel. With so many options available homeowners can get exactly what they want. So why would anyone hesitate to install a wood floor? Generally, it is due to misconceptions about the initial cost of hardwood or the intensity of ongoing maintenance. While there may have been some truth to those concerns with previous generations of hardwood floors, they are certainly not true any longer. Surprisingly, in spite of the sophisticated new approaches, wood upgrades are relatively affordable. The cost ranges from $7 to $12 per square foot installed. Variables such as species and grade account for most of the fluctuation. New finishes have taken the sting out of maintenance as well. Old options such as shellac and varnish that were popular in homes built prior to 1960 have been replaced by durable surface finishes and wax finishes. A properly maintained floor should only need waxing once or twice a year. With growing concern about the environment and natural resources, many homeowners would prefer an "eco-friendly" flooring product. That may seem at odds with the desire for wood floors, since some hardwoods are obtained from old growth forests in countries where environmental regulations are lax. However, new environmentally conscious hardwood floor products are now readily available. And they are affordable. It's not necessary to select antique wood to be environmentally responsible. There are innovative new products that are serious about "being green. " Coconut Flooring hardwood flooring from www.coconutfloorings.com is one example. According to the owner of coconut flooring Building Materials, "We spent five years conducting research and extensive testing to bring something new to the high-grade wood flooring industry that we can honestly say is 100 percent sustainable for the environment. " When asked about the specific environmental benefits of coconut wood flooring, He explained, "We selected a senile coconut tree as the primary species for cocos nucifera sp that grows in Indonesia. In that climate, the trees we planted on our plantations will grow to full size in 14 to16 years -- two to three times quicker than comparable species. This enables us to produce more flooring material faster, while using less of the earth's resources. The plantations are also interspersed with indigenous species to help maintain the natural ecosystem. " Coconut wood flooring is being hailed as the new elegant hardwood, with strength, density and technical characteristics comparable to Maple and higher than Red and White Oak. In short, today's homeowners can have it all in their wood flooring -- a wide choice of styles, good value and responsible environmental practices. Hardwood floors are cleaner, less likely to collect dirt, dander and are possibly connected with less allergens in the air. Couple these characteristics with natural aesthetic advantages, and hardwood flooring is destined to be a favorite for many years to come. |
