What to know before you order
Where it can go
Yes: living areas, bedrooms, hallways, domestic kitchens and laundries. In a kitchen or laundry it must be laid to the Vienna Woods wet-area detail — a flexible perimeter sealant and sealed joints within 1.5 m of any sanitary fixture. Ask us for the detail before you install. No: bathrooms with a shower or bath, saunas, garages, commercial kitchens, or outdoors.
Underfloor heating
Suitable over underfloor heating, subject to a maximum surface temperature of 27 °C.
Availability
Made to order in Europe — allow approximately 4–5 months from order, an estimate that can vary.
Looking after it
Use Vienna Woods-approved cleaning and maintenance products for an oiled floor. Refresh it with a maintenance oil from time to time — a lacquer product must not be used on it. Keep indoor humidity between 40–60% where practical; improper maintenance may affect durability.

As a natural timber product, some variation in grain, tone and knots between boards is normal, and that is part of the character of real oak.

Order a sample to see the colour in your own light before you commit.

Oak Metz is an engineered European oak floor defined by its refined smoked tone, subtle colour variation, and lightly textured surface. Soft grey undertones balance the natural warmth of the oak, for a calm, versatile floor.

The surface is gently hand-finished to create a smooth, tactile feel underfoot while maintaining a natural timber appearance. This treatment enhances the grain structure without introducing heavy surface relief, making the floor well suited to contemporary residential interiors.

Oak Metz is finished with a natural oil that penetrates the timber and supports long-term maintenance and repairability. The oil finish preserves the timber’s open-grain character while providing durable surface protection.

The engineered construction provides enhanced dimensional stability and is suitable for New Zealand conditions. When correctly specified, this floor is compatible with underfloor heating.

Oak Metz is made to order and available in a range of engineered formats, including standard plank, wide plank, herringbone, and chevron. Board width, thickness, knot grade, and bevel detail can be specified to suit individual project requirements.

If you’re a builder, architect, or interior designer, contact us for specification support and sampling options.
