The special properties of ash were noticed long time ago. The species is inseparably related to humans who learned how to use not only its hard and flexible wood, but also its bark and leaves to produce medicines. Occurs all around Europe, in the Crimea, the Caucasus and in Asia. It is a fast growing tree, reaches up to 25-35 m.  

Ash wood creates an incredible color palette, starting from yellow-like and finishing at white-red. Sunlight in a natural way changes the shades of wood, thus white becomes yellow and the elements which are brown at the beginning become lighter after some time. The whole gains noble tone and the contrast between the colors decreases.  

The wood pattern is very decorative – often striped, with clearly marked grains thanks to cells with good light scattered among the layer of early wood. Ash wood is hard, quite heavy, hardly fissile and flexible. It is also characterized by medium shrinkage or inclination to warping and cracking.

FertigParkiet

FertigParkiet – it is a finished, lacquered or covered with oil-wax parquet with two-layer construction. It consists of an noble top layer, 3,6 mm or 6 mm thick, made of oak or ash wood.

The bottom layer, called the stabilizing layer, is made out of hardwood. The application of this layer simplifies the installation and ensures that the floor is resistant

to deformation. In order to preserve the wood and to underline its natural aesthetic value the parquet is covered with eight layers of lacquer or three layers of oilwax. Owing to such construction technology FertigParkiet is recommended for underfloor heating.
