Resistance To Allergens
Carpets can trap fine particulate matter that aggravates allergies. Pollen, animal dander, and other particles settle in carpets and never leave. It increases the scope of air-borne allergy-related illnesses enormously. Many indoor allergens can be reduced by frequent dusting, vacuuming, and washing, but these activities can also agitate them. Real wood flooring eliminates the scope of these allergens to a greater extent by not letting allergens reside.
Resistance To Dust Mites
Carpets are a popular breeding ground for dust, dust mites, and mould. Engineered wood flooring tends to reduce allergen accumulation because they lack fibres to trap these substances. For instance, if you have infants or small children in the house, there is no way to be certain that the germs and bacteria trapped in the carpet will not harm them. Engineered wood floors help ensure the safety of you and your family.
Easy To Clean
Imagine not having to clean your floors as frequently, while still knowing that they are free of environmental hazards like dust mites. A quick damp-mopping with an approved anti-bacterial cleaner is all that is required to disinfect real wood floors. The fact that engineered wood floors are much more stain-resistant than carpets makes them even easier to maintain.
Bring Nature Indoors
Using real wood flooring in your home creates a biophilic environment. Biophilia is a term that refers to the love of nature that focuses on human’s innate attraction to nature and natural processes. Introducing Biophilic Design into your home provides positive benefits such as stress reduction, improved cognitive function and creativity, and overall well-being, as well as accelerated healing.
Improved Indoor Air Quality
According to Harris Interactive, real wood floors play an important role in improving air quality. Tile and laminate do not have the fibres that carpet does, but they have grout lines and embossing. Dust and other allergens can easily settle in these grout lines and embossing. Furthermore, cleanliness, combined with renewable resources and fewer chemicals, means that real wood flooring can ensure a happier, healthier home and environment for years to come.
