Château Café Au Lait
Soft, milky-blonde oak with a warm, creamy cast.
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 Café Au Lait is an engineered European oak floor characterised by its soft, warm mid-tone and understated, versatile character. Sitting comfortably between light and medium oak, the colour introduces warmth without overpowering a space, making it suitable for a wide range of interior styles.
The engineered construction provides dimensional stability suited to New Zealand conditions, while retaining the natural variation and grain detail of European oak. The wide plank format enhances spatial flow and allows the timber’s texture to read clearly across larger floor areas.
Finished with a durable UV lacquer, the surface protects the oak while maintaining a low-sheen, natural appearance. Oak Café Au Lait is a refined, practical timber floor designed for residential and light commercial environments.
