FEP Parquet Refinishable Program
FEP Parquet Refinishable Program is a voluntary certification program designed to identify parquet products with wear/top layers thick enough to be refinished, and produce a list of certified refinishable parquet products to aid manufacturers, distributors, specifiers, and end users in their decision making processes.
The aim is to promote parquet which is at least twice resandable thanks to its minimum 2.5 mm real wood top layer. By this initiative, FEP wants to put forward this inherent advantage of parquet compared to other floorings. Parquet is a long-life wood product whose durability can be extended through refinishing. Refinishing also allows renovation to update color & style. We would like to bring the consumers' attention on this possibility.
This Program has been developed in cooperation with our North American colleagues from NWFA - National Wood Floors Association - who have launched their NWFA Engineered Wood Flooring Refinishable Program. In order to encourage an international norm, both Programs are aligned.
The Program is also now open to support from FEP Associate Members - Suppliers with relevant products/services.
