PSB® Parquet.

Key PSB® Parquet Information

  • High- performance Flooring: PSB® Parquet Flooring is manufactured using Palm Strand Board (PSB®), an engineered wooden board made from pruned palm fronds. It combines structural strength, dimensional stability, and sustainability, making it suitable for high-quality parquet applications.
  • Operational Maintenance: PSB® Parquet flooring should be cleaned regularly using dry sweeping or vacuuming with a soft brush attachment to remove dust and grit. Avoid excessive water and use only recommended wood floor cleaners. Maintain stable indoor temperature (18–26 °C) and humidity levels (40–60%), and protect the surface with felt pads under furniture to prevent scratches. Good ventilation, use of exhaust fans, and controlling moisture from cooking or bathing further help preserve the floor.
  • Sustainably Engineered: Over 90% of PSB® Parquet Flooring is manufactured using upcycled palm fronds. These palm fronds are locally sourced, and the parquet flooring is locally manufactured in the UAE, supporting sustainability, circular economy practices, and a reduced carbon footprint.
  • Customizable Finishes: PSB® Parquet Flooring is offered in straight-cut planks in three sizes, as well as timeless chevron and herringbone patterns. It features a sophisticated palette of finishes—Chestnut, Coffee, Vanilla, Toffee, Blonde, Hazel, Red Oak, and Cherry—allowing for versatile design options that complement any interior style.
  • Tongue-and-groove installation: PSB® Parquet Flooring uses a tongue-and-groove installation system. No specialized tools are required when installed by an experienced parquet flooring professional.
  • Enhanced Fire Performance: PSB® Parquet Flooring is fire-rated to BS F1, offering superior fire performance and enhanced safety. For context, BS F1 is a British Standard classification indicating a high level of fire resistance for flooring materials. Most comparable parquet manufacturers are only certified to DS F1, which represents a lower fire-resistance rating, making PSB® a safer choice in terms of fire performance.

Best Practices.

Maintain a stable indoor temperature between 18°C and 26°C and keep humidity levels between 40% and 60%. Consistent environmental conditions help prevent expansion, contraction, and surface damage.

Ensure good ventilation at all times. Air-conditioning systems help remove excess moisture, while fans or dehumidifiers may be used where necessary. Always use exhaust fans during cooking and bathing to limit moisture buildup.

Minimize the amount of water introduced into the space by: · Cooking with covered pots · Taking shorter, cooler showers · Avoiding water spillage or excessive wet cleaning · Ensure all plant pots have trays and empty them regularly to prevent overflow.

Routinely inspect pipes, taps, walls, roofs, and plumbing fixtures. Fix any leaks immediately to prevent moisture penetration and long-term flooring damage.

Microfiber cleaning pads or a dust mop can be used daily to get rid of dust, loose dirt and pet hair. A vacuum with a soft floor attachment can be used weekly to deal with dirt that could potentially scratch your floor. Only use the appropriate products for your surface.

Use felt protectors under furniture and appliances, and ensure heavy items have non-staining gliders or casters. When moving furniture, slide it carefully over a protective surface. Use door mats and area rugs in high-traffic areas.

Expect natural color and grain variations, as PSB® parquet reflects wood-inspired aesthetics. Keep pets’ nails trimmed to reduce the risk of surface scratches.
