Our grades

The look of your floor depends on the grade you select. For example, it determines the plank length, colour variations and the presence of knots. Choose from our three grades to find the one that best suits the style of decor you dream of.

Antique

An artistically aged hardwood floor, that is what the Mitis Antique grade will give you. This grade also offers beautifully undulating long length boards with a touch of rustic character. The Antique grade will bring texture to your decor.

It is available in 16 varieties.

Antique floors

Character

Derived from the marriage between different grades, Character flooring adds a completely unique element to your decor. With warm variations of hue accentuated with rustic features, this grade recalls the floors of yesteryear.

Character floors

Harmony

Harmony offers a grade of wood with less variations – an option that’s sure to please. The knots are the only natural aspect preserved in this grade, leaving you the leeway to create beautiful harmony between your floor and your more contemporary decor.

Our colours

We’ve developed a multitude of shades to offer you the floor colour of your dreams. Discover our range of colours and choose the one that best suits your decor.

The hardness of our species

In order to offer you a superior quality product, all our species are given the Janka test to determine the hardness of the wood and assess its resistance to penetration.

The Janka test measures the weight, in pounds, needed to drive a 0.44” steel ball into the wood.

Our textures

Our floors are produced with a brushed or smooth texture.

Brushed

The brushed texture reveals more contrast and hides the wear marks on your floor. It’s created using a wire brush that opens the grain of the wood. The use of this brush leaves delicate marks on the upper layer of the board to give it a beautiful, natural effect.

Smooth

Treat yourself to the elegance of wood in its pure state. For smooth flooring, no texture is added to the finished product. This is quite simply natural wood. Smooth textured floor is harmonious, sophisticated and classic.

Undulated

The undulated texture is inspired by the old wooden floors. It is only available on our Antique grade floors. This is a machining process that creates a wavy effect on the wood as if it had been worked by hand.

Our Mouldings

Bring the last touch to your floor with our beautiful hardwood MITIS mouldings. MITIS moldings are made with care and meticulousness to blend perfectly with the rest of your floor, whether for our hardwood or engineered floors.

Nosing

Our nosings are perfect for finishing your floor on an open edge. Available in two finishes, round or square, you will easily find the model that suits your floor!
