Parquet made at the edge of Europeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finest oak forest. Our production plant is based in the middle of France, right in the middle of the TronĂ§ais forest, famous for its ancient oaks. Several generations of forest and timber knowledge, combined with the very latest manufacturing techniques, result in a refined product offer. Its timber is appreciated for its unusually fine-textured and unblemished quality. It is used to make casks and barrels for the finest cognacs and the greatest Bordeaux wines, and is much sought after by wine producers from Italy, Spain, Australia and even the United States. So considering all this, how can we do anything other than ensure you receive the very finest engineered wood? Our success is based on generations of forest and timber knowledge, combined with the very latest manufacturing techniques.

Respectfull Because our forests deserve it. A BerryAlloc parquet is much more than the answer to your longing for exclusive surroundings, evoking the natural world. It is also a responsible choice. It comes from a company that loves its product, and cares for the environment as well as for your lifestyle.

Sustainable and responsible forestry The wood selected both in France and abroad comes from controlled sources managed in accordance with the criteria of the forestry stewardship certification, requiring strictlycontrolled traceability and monitoring at every step of the manufacturing and sales processes (PEFC tm1 or FSC® 2 certification ). The mark of responsible forestry

1. PEFC tm: Promoting sustainable forestry management (www.pefc.org). BerryAlloc has been PEFC tm certified since 2007 for its HDF boards, as well as for oak, walnut and sapele, which represent over 90% of our production. 2. FSC®: Forest Stewardship Council A.C. Responsible Forest Management.

Watch as your floor ages beautifully, developing a patina of memories, only improving over time. 5

A natural material with added excellence. Our engineered wood are certified “Parquets de France”, a label guaranteeing you the choice of a quality product made with French know-how, a true added value. Invest in a long-term choice, guaranteed by the radical choice of raw materials and manufacturing in line with very demanding criteria.

A sustainable quality of life • • • •

No volatile solvents in the varnishes and glues used. Reduced dust emissions. Formaldehyde emissions are kept down to almost naturally-occurring levels. Engineered wood is laid on top of a base of HDF (High Density Fiberboard), an E1 certified natural product or birch plywood.

Forests, playing their part in the battle against global warming Your choice of a BerryAlloc engineered wood is making an active contribution to reducing the greenhouse effect. As it grows, every tree captures much of its CO2 from the air we breathe, binding it in the form of carbon. Furthermore, parquet is 100% renewable.

Preserving natural resources Whilst offering you an identical look as solid wood (and even a superior technical performance), engineered wood reduces the required amount of real hardwood up to 4 times! Hence, only the top layer is made of hardwood. Our commitment to the environment has its effects in our Manufacturing process: • The cardboard box used for packaging is made of 95% recycled fibres. • Our water consumption was reduced by more than 85% over 5 years (saving the volume of 4 Olympic swimming pools every year). • Saw dust from production is reused as boiler fuel in the plant's heating system, and to generate hot water. • We participate in the French program for recycling packaging materials.

Why BerryAlloc parquet? An offer adapted to the residential as well as the commercial market. A range of exclusive and attractive parquets The BerryAlloc engineered wood collection offers you a choice of: • a wide range of sizes : from narrow 1-strips to extra-wide planks, and 3 strips, • a range of colours and finishes that suits current styles (brushed, limed,...). • an offer adapted to the usage as well residential as commerical with moderate or intensive use. Explore our extensive collection of engineered woods and create the ambiance that best suits you. Whatever you choose, BerryAlloc parquets will give your interior its very own unique, natural character.

Strong varnish or traditional oil? We have the protection adapted to your needs Against wear and scratches, BerryAlloc developed high-tech varnishes with molecular nano-technology formula providing a parquet floor highly tolerant to wear, easy to maintain and that preserves the natural appearance for years. The latest generation of lacquer, Ultimtec Soft touch offers you in addition to its exceptional strength the pleasant, authentic soft feel of oiled parquet. If you are looking for a traditional, authentic parquet to preserve the real natur of the wood, then our oiled or waxed finishes are the perfect option.

A finish and a very precise machining: • • •

eliberately controlled imperfections create a world of character. D Elegant, regular bevel on the long sides of the single plank collections. Homogene surface, without bevel for the 3 strip collections.

An excellent product

Solidwood facing Central core Backlayer

Because wood continues to live even after it has been cut, the question is sometimes asked : how will the floor act once it is installed? No need to worry: the structure of BerryAlloc parquet is designed to stand the test of time. The central HDF core (High Density Fiberboard) was a technically inspired choice. It offers several advantages compared to spruce: • an extremely stable floor, • greater impact resistance, • more efficient floor heating, • perfect joints thanks to more accurate machining.

So much simpler to install BerryAlloc introduces Best Loc® X-Treme, an easier, quicker and longer-lasting installation method. No tools or glue needed; simply click the boards together. Your parquet is easy and quick to install, no matter what length or floor area is to be covered. An offer adapted to as well the residential as the commercial market.

Warranty Our engineered wood have up to 50 year warranty guarantee in normal, domestic use*. • Parquet with 6mm top layer is garanteed for 50 years (Millenium), • Parquet with 3,3 woodlayer is guaranteed for 30 years (Factory, Saga, Noble, Noble XL, Heritage and Ecoforest), • Parquet with 2,5mm woodlayer is guaranteed for 15 years (Palace and Majestic).

Surface treatment In order to preserve the natural beauty of our parquets and to improve their strength, we apply various protective finishes at the end of the manufacturing process, making your parquet ready for immediate installation without further treatment.

High-tech surface varnishes Our surface varnishes, which are very rich in aluminium oxide, make our parquet floors highly tolerant to wear, easy to maintain and preserve their natural appearance for years.

Ultimtec® Soft Touch: an exceptional sensation. SOFT TOUCH

New generation varnish from our R&D department : As well as the unparalleled performance of the Ultimtec® varnish, it is very silky to the touch, with an exceptional surface quality. There are 3 finishes : satin, patinated or matt (available on the ranges Millenium, Saga & Noble).

Ultimtec®: Without doubt, the best varnish on the market* Ultimtec® varnish sets new standards for durability and strength. Its nanotechnology formula provides dramatically improved resistance to scratches and wear (over 10,000 Taber cycles). There are 3 finishes : satin, patinated or matt (available on the ranges Heritage, Ecoforest).

Masterresist® Applied in 6 coats, the protective varnish is thick enough to protect your floor and make it easy to maintain. It has a beautiful satin, patinated or matt finish (available on the ranges Palace, Majestic).

Oiled finish: centuries-old wood treatment The parquet is deeply impregnated with a high-quality oil, to nourish and protect the wood. Oiled parquet requires regular maintenance, depending on the usage, in order to preserve its original appearance and the true nature of the materials long term (cf our maintenance products) (available on the ranges Noble, Millenium).

Oiled and Waxed finish A impregnation with high quality wax oil to nourish the wood and improve protection. The different oils and waxes create a harmonious blend of shades and materials. (Available on the range Factory)

Aged effect Deliberately controlled imperfections create a world of character. A harmonious blend of shades and materials for all interiors type. (Available on the range Factory)

Brushed finishes The wood is brushed mechanically to highlight its grain structure and to visually reinforce its robustness. Five individually adjustable mechanical brushes are used to impart the desired brushing to the wood. * We compared Ultimtec® with 11 products selected from its competitors, represented in the European market. Result : Ultimtec® showed its superiority in both resistance to wear and the scratch resistance test.

Installation methods Best Loc® X-Treme: Flat installation Installation is even easier, simpler and faster (up to 30% faster compared to Best Loc®). The planks are installed one after another, by simply folding them into place. No tools or glue needed.

Best Loc®: Angle-angle installation method The quality of its profile and the angular locking (length/width) makes it easy to lay without tools, glue or mallet. Experience shows this is certainly one of the best locking systems in the world.

In conclusion: Our installation systems are remarkably strong, and so durable that Best Loc® and Best Loc® X-Treme come with a lifetime guarantee.

Installation instructions for complete satisfaction Follow the instructions in our manual when laying the flooring Some basic rules • Before laying, let the parquet lie flat in the room for 24 to 48 hours. • Make sure the supporting surface is clean, even, firm and dry. • It is essential to leave a gap of 8-10mm around the edge of the room, so that the parquet can move freely. • Mix the planks from several packs in one production batch, so that the overall appearance of the floor is balanced. • Our parquets may be laid on a floating or glued-down base. • Our parquet is suitable for laying over a low-temperature, heated floor (max 28°C except for beech, maple and jatoba). “Glued-down” laying ensures that the under-floor heating is efficient. • Laying over a cooled floor is not recommended, and is not covered by our warranty. • Do not lay BerryAlloc parquet in damp rooms! water is the N°1 enemy of parquet.

Long and beautiful life The durability of your investment is optimized by taking the necessary minimum care and attention. Let us give you some advice for keeping your parquet beautiful.

Always a clean floor Dust, fluff, stains and everyday dirt... You just need to sweep or vacuum, dust or wipe with a cloth. But, be careful! If you are using a floor cloth, make sure it's not too wet : water and wood do not get along...

A scratch? The solution! We come and go, live our lives in our house, apartment, workshop or office. Don't worry. Little scratches can be easily hidden by applying a felt marker matched to the colour of your wood. BerryAlloc provides 12 different shades for you to repair your floor, no matter what species of wood it is.

Gleaming, year in, year out. If your BerryAlloc parquet should start to show signs of fatigue and lose its vividness, simply rejuvenate it! Clean it very carefully, then apply a grease-remover. Finally, apply a renovating coat. This will restore its splendour, enhanced by the patina of the years.
