HIGH COMFORT & FEELING

THE CONSTRUCTION OF AWARE IS UNIQUE
1. WEARLAYER
This innovative wear-resistant protective- & surface layer provides excellent scratch resistance and seals the surface against stains, chemicals and dirt, enabling the use of Aware in environments requiring Class 33. The wearlayer has an ultra-matt surface with wood texture embossing for a realistic look.
2. DECORATIVE LAYER
To give the most natural design possible, we print the wood design, including knots and grain directly onto the board. There are 15 uniquely patterned boards in each color design to ensure a natural feel and low pattern repeatability.
3. COMFORT LAYERS
This unique comfort layer has elastic properties that make the floor comfortable to walk on and a warm, wood-like feel. It significantly reduces the sound of steps and drums in the rooms and contributes to the excellent acoustic properties of the product.
The elasticity in the comfort layer comes from a bio-based material consisting of natural and recycled fibers from the textile industry that have been compressed under high pressure into a hard and thin layer. It is on this thin layer that the decorative layer is then printed, to give as authentic a wooden design and feel as possible.
4. HDF CORE
A high-quality HDF, partly made from recycled wood, gives the floor stability and joints strength. It also makes the floor climate stable so you can place Aware around fireplaces, by large windows and on underfloor heating.
5. Cork Backing
The cork backing eliminates the need for extra foam underlays, and gives Aware good sound reducing properties as it dampens vibrations and also increases the walking comfort.
