What Is Silvan Flooring Made Of?

Silvan is real hardwood flooring, engineered with the resilience and ease of modern alternatives, without sacrificing the authenticity of natural wood.

Construction at a Glance

  • Wear Layer: 0.6 mm (22 mil) FSC-certified oak
  • Protective Finish: UV-cured acrylic
  • Core: High-density cured wood composite
  • Backing: Birch
  • Total Thickness: 9.2 mm
Plank Options

Silvan is offered in two plank options:

  • Silvan 7": A 7.21” × 78.74” plank / 27.13 sq ft per box

  • Silvan 6": A 5.94” × 46.06” plank / 17.11 sq ft per box
 

The Wear Layer:

At 0.6 mm, Silvan's oak wear layer is precision-thin by design:

  • More dent-resistant. Impregnated with wood powder and backed by a high-density composite core, 3× more dent-resistant than traditional engineered hardwood. 
  • More sustainable. Fewer oak trees per square foot. Every plank is FSC-certified from responsibly managed forests.
  • More affordable. The efficient construction delivers a real hardwood floor well below the market average for comparable products.

Certifications

  • Greenguard Gold: Low chemical emissions, safe for homes with children
  • FSC Certified: Wood from responsibly managed forests
  • CARB Compliant: Meets California formaldehyde emission standards

Refinishing

Silvan isn't designed to be sanded and refinished, it's designed not to need it, backed by a lifetime residential warranty. If a plank is damaged, the click system makes single-plank replacement straightforward without disturbing the rest of the floor or the cost of a full refinish.
