With the wide selection of wood species, don’t settle for common, production narrow strip-width oak flooring. Imagine your rooms finished in your favorite wood in long, wide distinctive plank floors once found only in historic period homes. The wider plank flooring, in longer lengths portend quality that stands out as a cut above the rest. There is no crisper, cleaner, longer wearing, more attractive floor available.

Common strip-width flooring generally measures 1-1/2 or 2-1/4” wide; the 1-1/2” as is often found in late Victorian and turn of the century homes. Plank-width flooring describes flooring measuring 3” wide, running commonly up to 8”. Depending on wood species, some woods are available even up to 12-14” wide. Be aware that the wider the boards, the more care should be taken to ensure proper environmental conditions to minimize cupping and separation between boards. Seek an experienced plank-flooring specialist to be sure your plank floors are installed properly.

Discover how the use of aluminum in CSP support systems is revolutionizing the solar power industry; making solar power a more efficient and affordable energy source.

Solar power is rapidly emerging as a popular source of sustainable energy. There have been major advances in the solar power industry that, when coupled with increasing fossil fuel costs and concern about climate change, combine to make a powerful argument for the use of solar power as a viable energy source.

One of the biggest technological advances is the recent use of aluminum as an alternative to steel in concentrated solar power (CSP) support systems. The benefits of aluminum range from higher optical efficiency to reduced ecosystem disruption.
