French Grey Engineered Timber Flooring 2mm Veneer ABCD Grade

French Grey is a soft, warm-leaning grey engineered European oak floor, available in 2mm or 3mm veneer over a 14mm engineered core. It suits modern, pared-back interiors that want a contemporary alternative to traditional honey or brown oak tones.

French Grey engineered oak flooring is a genuine European oak veneer (choose 2mm or 3mm) over a 14mm engineered core, supplied in 1900mm boards. European oak has a Janka hardness rating of approximately 6.0 kN, softer than the Australian native species in our range but a well-established, proven flooring timber across Europe for centuries.

Note: if you're searching for "French Oak" flooring specifically - that's a different product to French Grey. French Oak refers to European oak sourced from French forests as a species/origin descriptor; French Grey is a colour applied to our European oak veneer. If you want French-origin oak specifically, ask our team to confirm sourcing before ordering.

What does French Grey look like in a room?

A soft, warm-leaning grey - contemporary enough to suit a monochrome or black-fixture interior, warm enough to avoid feeling cold or clinical. It works well against black or brushed nickel hardware and dark joinery.

Should I choose 2mm or 3mm veneer?

Choose 3mm if you expect to sand and refinish the floor over its lifetime - the thicker face layer allows for more resurfacing cycles. Choose 2mm if budget is the main driver and you're not planning to refinish.
