Veneer Grade Vertical Grain Flooring of the Highest QualityVertical Grain defines perfectly quarter-sawn boards.
For any given product, someone has to be the best. Our company was created to produce the finest White Oak, Cherry, Hard Maple, Walnut and Red Oak hardwood flooring to be purchased at any price, from any supplier. To do this we developed a "radial sawmill", modeled after the 1800's "clap-board" mills of New England. With this unique Perfect Quarter-Sawing Technology we are able to highlight the ray-flecks in American Black Cherry, Hard Maple and the Oaks. In all species, this process produces a stunningly iridescent floor with a luxurious warmth that is apparent to anyone that sees it. This complicated sawing technology has other benefits as well. Vertical grain floor boards are about 10% harder than "other sawn" boards. Also, due to our industry-leading 12-ply lamination process, our engineered construction is specified as "best" for radiant heat, oceanfront homes, cement slabs and other difficult climate installations. It's only fitting that we use only Veneer Grade logs in our production. Barely 1 in 500 trees meet Veneer Grade log criteria. Use of these logs allows us to deliver long-length floorboards of perfectly straight, consistant grain. Check out our hardwood flooring products and get more details about how we achieve this quality.

 Kent MacPherson owner of Quarter-Sawn Flooring: "My job is to answer any questions you might have." Or email me directly at kent@quarter-sawnflooring.com. I have been a woodworker since I was 10 years old (46 years experience), and I often struggled to find the exact board that a job required. In the early 1990s, I purchased my first sawmill so that I could source that perfect piece of wood that my designs required. My work moved from furniture to flooring in the early 2000s, and in 2005, my work won the National Wood Flooring Association’s “Floor of the Year” award (the top national award for a wood floor). It was during this period that Quarter-Sawn Flooring was started with its mission to provide the most beautiful and stable wood flooring possible. Read more.

Veneer grade quarter-sawing (also known as radial sawing or perfect quarter-sawing) keeps the grain of floorboards as close to 90 degrees as possible. This gives you a tighter, more lustrous grain. Read more. | |||||
