Product Portfolio
IMaGES product portfolio
comprises Red Oak, Maple, Birch, Ash, White Oak,
Brazilian Cherry and Paraju. Red Oak is
available in Natural plus eleven (11) colors. Maple is
available in Natural plus two (2) colors and Ash is
available in natural and 4 colors.
The IMaGES color selection is unique. The colors in
Red Oak are meant to enhance both the gold and honey tones of
Red Oak in the lighter stains and to maintain the natural wood
look in the mid and darker tones. The Ash colors have been
formulated to bring out the best in the natural graining of the
product. The colors in Maple are meant to enhance the natural
white look of the product.
The Company has been particular about staying away from a
painted look. All our stains have been developed to enhance the
grain and maintain the "wood" look of the soft grain. This is
particularly evident in the Red Oak. The water-base technology
results in a whiter and clearer look to the wood than other
product.
We refer to our finish as a "furniture look" with a 55% -
65% gloss level and a definitive highlighting of the soft
grain. There is no mistaking our product for anything other
than a high quality solid wood product.
For the oak product, the Company uses only Appalachian Red
Oak to maintain consistency of the graining and color
throughout the wood. No Southern Oak is used in the
manufacturing process. For Maple, only Northern Hard Maple is
used.
Our process comprises a state-of-the-art prefinishing
processing line we installed in 1995 that provides a full seven
(7) coat urethane finish – 1 base / stain coat (including a
clear coat on natural for improved adhesion qualities and to
protect against UV penetration and resultant traditional
"yellowing" of the wood), 4 coats of sealer and 2 top coats.
The company’s "Optimized" process maximizes the finish clarity,
look and endurance of the 7 Coat system.
- The finishing process uses a new,
sophisticated water based technology. There are no
solvents in the finished product ensuring a totally
allergy free product.
- Our precision milling allows us to have one
of the smallest, if not the smallest V-groove in the
industry.
- Images product is V-grooved both on the
sides and the ends.
- The IMaGES product is produced in 3/4"
thickness in widths of both 2 1/4" and 3 ¼" and is available in different
grades varying from Prime to a Country
"look".
The IMaGES product comes with a lifetime
warranty against defects in material and workmanship for
as long as the homeowner owns the home. Additionally, the
Jancoat ™ finish is guaranteed not to wear through under
normal residential traffic conditions for as long as you
own the floor.
