                                       BioLinea is the Friulparchet “Bio”
                                       Collection distinguished by natural
                                       finishing applied by hand and
                                       available in different colors. The
                                       different types of working, stain,
                                       and finish make BioLinea unique.
                                       Specific working techniques have
                                       been expressly chosen to bring out
                                       all the wood’s grain clearly and help
                                       give it the characteristic warmth,
                                       in this way making parquet the
                                       inimitable flooring material it is.
                                       In step with today’s demand for
                                       green architecture, the BioLinea
                                       wood floor gives home the
                                       ambience of other eras and the
                                       elegance of traditional style but with
                                       all the comfort and convenience of a
                                       modern pre-finished floor. With all the value of traditional craftsmanship, every
                                       lot produced is "as an end in itself" and therefore unlike any other. The BioLinea
                                       Collection is available in different types of working: pre-polished, brushed,
                                       hand-planing, sawn and woodworm effect, all exclusively in European Oak.

                                                                      sawn, antique effect

                                                                                              new parquet solutions and so has widened its
                                                                                              range to include other, less well-known timbers of
                                                                                              great charm. African Wengè, with its
                                                                                              characteristically black colour, is proposed in an
                                                                                              unusual version with traces of woodworm and
                                                                                              insects, plus obvious saw marks. This is then
                                                                                              “packaged” with an antique finish that highlights
                                                                                              and accentuates the black/brown grain of this
                                                                                              warm welcoming African timber. The resulting
                                      parquet fits in perfectly with pale shades and streaks of gray and hazelnut. African Wengè
                                      Planks are found in the Noble Planks Collection, which includes elegant floorboards created
                                      using fine timbers from around the world: Burmese Teak, Hard Maple, African Wengè and
                                      Doussiè, European Pear, Acacia (European Rubinia), European and American Walnut are just
                                      some of the more exclusive timbers that Cadorin selects for this line. The surface machining
                                      and finishes are carefully studied to reveal the beauty of the wood, not to disguise or alter it,
                                      while the use of natural oils and waxes or wax-effect varnishes ensure contact with the
                                      wood, guaranteeing maximum practicality and easy upkeep. www.cadoringroup.it
