Kahrs Lumen Engineered Oak Flooring

Kahrs Lumen takes its cues from the changing quality of natural light, with named tones like Dawn, Dusk, Twilight and Eclipse spanning a tonal journey from pale and luminous through to deep and shadowy. Built on a 3.5mm oak top layer over a 15mm engineered core, with wide 200mm boards in both 2-strip and 3-strip formats, the range keeps a single consistent ultra matt lacquered finish throughout, letting the tonal story carry the range's character.

A Tonal Journey

Lumen's named lines move through a light-inspired colour story: Dawn, Vapor and Mist sit at the paler end, offering a soft, luminous look well suited to brightening a room. Twilight and Rime move into a cooler middle ground, while Dusk, Eclipse and Glow bring deeper, smoked tones for a more dramatic finish. Every line shares the same brushed, ultra matt lacquered surface, so the decision comes down to which point in that tonal range best suits the room.

Where Lumen Works Best

• Rooms wanting a specific mood through colour — the light-inspired tonal range offers precise control over warmth and depth
• Larger, open-plan spaces — the wide 200mm boards suit bigger floor areas
• Contemporary interiors — the consistently low-sheen finish keeps the surface calm and understated
• Rooms with underfloor heating — the engineered core is built to handle the gradual temperature shifts UFH produces

FAQ

How many tones does Kahrs Lumen come in?
The range spans a light-inspired tonal journey, from pale tones like Dawn and Mist through to deeper, smoked tones like Dusk and Eclipse.

Is Kahrs Lumen suitable for underfloor heating?
Yes. The engineered construction is designed to handle the gradual temperature changes underfloor heating produces.

Why does Lumen only come in an ultra matt lacquered finish?
Keeping a single low-sheen finish across every tone lets the range's tonal variation stand out clearly, without differences in surface shine affecting how each colour reads.

Can Kahrs Lumen be sanded and refinished?
Yes. The 3.5mm top layer allows the floor to be sanded back and refinished to restore its surface as it wears.

What's the difference between the 2-strip and 3-strip formats?
Both divide each board into narrower strips for a layered look, with 3-strip creating a slightly finer, more traditional pattern than 2-strip.
