The 3mm wear layer can also be lightly sanded and recoated during its lifetime, when carried out appropriately by a flooring professional.

What installation methods are available?
14mm Imperial Engineered Oak™ can be installed using:

Floating Floor System
Direct Stick is the preferred method where maximum stability is required or where fixed cabinetry, kitchen islands or heavy joinery will be installed. Floating installation requires an approved floating-floor underlay and continuous PVA adhesive through the tongue and groove joints.
Can kitchen islands and fixed cabinetry be installed over the flooring?
Yes — when the flooring is installed using the Direct Stick full glue-down method. Heavy cabinetry, kitchen islands and fixed joinery may be installed over direct-stick flooring. They must not be installed over a floating-floor installation.

Yes, but there are specific requirements. The flooring is approved for hydronic in-slab underfloor heating only and must be installed using the Direct Stick full glue-down method.
