KELAT FLOORING

Kelat is strong and can handle a heavy traffic. Due to it’s multi color appearance in red, brown and some yellow tones it is a floor that gives you a typical Asian expression but one that not to be kept very smooth and neat. It is great for commercial uses as well since the appearance and hardness will not ask for much care.

Kelat can be colored to get more balance in the wood if one wishes. The grades are AB or ABC mix, BC is not available.

Kelat is nice when treated with PU lacquer, oxidative natural oil or modified with a little color in it and can be sealed with our special polymer top coat, so it is protect against dirt and water.

We advise to coat Kelat with a soft red coating to camouflage the difference in colors to give it a better balance. Still one will see the darker and lighter colors but it is more narrowed.

Kelat wood is used a lot in construction, ship construction and outside decking. For outside use Kelat is a moderate kind of timber but not easy to nail due to it’s strength.

As flooring it can be used with floor heating but the advise is to not use a top layer that is more thick than 2,5mm. So Arrow Wood can produce a 2,5+15mm kelat engineered hardwood flooring to realize this.
