Log floor refers to the wooden floor where the wooden parts of the product must be processed with solid wood. Solid wood floor refers to the wooden floor with the main components made of wood and glued materials. That is to say, as long as the main structure of the floor uses solid wood, even if the door and side panels do not use solid wood, it can also be called solid wood flooring.

2. It is a natural, healthy, and chemical-free natural product, so it fits the needs of modern urban people for a healthy home.

3. Because it is a wood product, it also has the characteristic of being easily deformed.

Features of solid wood flooring:

1. Sound insulation and heat insulation: The solid wood floor material is a dense wood fiber structure, so the thermal conductivity is low, and the effect of blocking sound and heat is very good.

2. Humidity adjustment: The wood of solid wood flooring has a very peculiar characteristic. That is to say, when the climate is dry, the moisture inside the wood is released, and when the climate is humid, the wood will absorb moisture in the air.

3. Wood flooring can automatically adjust indoor temperature and humidity by absorbing and releasing moisture, thereby it can reduce the incidence of rheumatic diseases in the family. Moreover, the thermal conductivity of solid wood flooring is relatively small, so it has the effect of warming in winter and cooling in summer.
