2023 Top Flooring Products

La Grande Monarch Plank Distributed by Galleher Wins 2023 Top Flooring Products: Hardwood

By Tanja Kern
2023 Top Flooring Products Hardwood winner: La Grande Monarch Plank
November 30, 2023

The Monarch Plank brand of wide-plank hardwood flooring was built upon the success of its flagship Domaine II Collection. Taking luxury hardwood flooring a step further with the La Grande Collection, Monarch Plank La Grande features even wider and longer boards with the same premium construction. 

La Grande offers 10-foot-long boards that are over 11 inches wide, some of the widest in the industry. All La Grande wood planks use premium color treatments, a top-quality ultra-matte urethane finish by Bona of Sweden, and a 6-mm thick wear layer that offers the same longevity as a solid hardwood floor.

The colors developed for La Grande feature some of the most advanced coloring techniques in the industry, including smoking and multiple layers of pre-treatments and reactive stains that provide for very subtle, complex, natural-looking hues. Importantly, the cross-ply layers that give La Grande its exceptional stability are assembled with a formaldehyde-free adhesive, making it a healthier alternative to many engineered floors on the market that are made with formaldehyde glues.
