For durable and beautiful flooring with impeccable environmental credentials, check out EcoTimber’s hand-scraped wood planks. Made from Forest Stewardship Council–certified hickory and formaldehyde-free adhesives, the flooring can be installed over radiant floor-heating systems.

Hand-scraped flooring has a rustic look and is easier to maintain than ultra-smooth hardwood floors, EcoTimber marketing director Brad van Unen says. “If you ding it, you’re just adding to its rustic appeal.” Prices are competitive with other quality wood flooring and vary by dealer.
