Hard Surface Construction
Hallmark Floors uses TSCA TITLE VI compliant glues for the center-ply in our engineered floors’ hardwood construction. The center veneers are cold pressed, then hot pressed with tremendous pressure. This process makes the center core Eco-friendly, harder and more proportionally stable.
- Higher Stability
- Higher Density
- Higher Strength
- Higher Indoor Air Quality

Sawn-Cut Style
Experts in the industry agree that sawn-cut provides the best quality, stability & visuals for solid & engineered floors. Sawn-cut engineered floors allow for the thickest veneer (4mm) with the highest degree of stability. Engineered sawn-cut wear layers are the ONLY engineered floors that are equal to solid wood floors.
Sawn-cut is made by cutting the log into thick blanks and then set on edge and sent through a multi blade saw, so that the slices are more perpendicular to the growth rings. This process creates a beautiful wood grain and higher quality product, which is unique to sawn-cut face floors.
Hallmark Floors’ engineered hardwood floors is constructed with an ultra thick wear layer has the same usable surface as 3/4” solid hardwood flooring, this allows 3 guaranteed sandings.
Sawn-Cut Engineered Floors
Superior Wear Layer
Hallmark Floors’ hybrid sawn cut engineered wood floors feature the same wear layer as solid.
Slice-Cut Style
Slice-cut features the same beautiful look as sawn cut veneers and is the second most common way to create a wood veneer, it’s just in thinner layers (2mm or less). This creates stunning visuals while still providing stability for engineered wood floors.
How the wood is cut makes a difference in sliced engineered floors. According to experts, in order to produce a better slice-cut veneer, the log should be vertically cut from the top down. As a result, this creates less stress on the veneer during the slicing process and makes the veneer stronger and provides max stability for a variety of environments. For this reason, Hallmark Floors only vertically slice-cuts the wood used for our floors.
Hallmark Floors engineered hardwood floors feature a 2mm slice cut face layer. This thick wear layer makes it possible to perform 2 guaranteed sandings.
TrueSlice is a new progressive process developed for the sole purpose of greatly increasing one “Stability”. With a highly stable & thicker face cut TrueSlice greatly reduces the opportunity for checking in dry environments when compared to traditional processing methods.
