major advance over the industry norm
Lauzon’s exclusive Titanium Finish is made without solvents or any VoCs. Its unique polymerized technology maintains a crystal clear surface to highlight the natural warmth of the wood, even in low lustre gloss levels, while providing unsurpassed abrasion resistance. No technology can trump Titanium when it comes to bringing out the authentic beauty of wood while protecting it.
dynamic Flex Lauzon’s Titanium Finish offers superior flexibility to the finish permitting it to bend under the impact of hard and heavy objects and providing exceptional resistance to chipping and peeling.
Clarity Lauzon's unique Titanium Finish technology provides an unparalleled transparency that reveals and enhances the warmth and natural wood grain.
Lustre Retention Over time foot traffic will dull the finish and create traffic patterns on most hardwood flooring. By adding Titanium to our finish, we can guarantee that our floors will preserve their lustre year over year.
Sun Protection bright light and sun can cause wood to yellow. Lauzon’s SunshieldTm is applied to both the wood and the finish, providing superior protection from sun damage.
