Wide board flooring........

Through our slow seasoning process and expert kiln drying, we’re able to produce super wide plank flooring at exceptional dimensions. 
So just how wide can you have your wide board flooring? We include widths up to 300mm in our standard mixed width parcels. If your project is extra special, you can even request that we produce boards up to 350mm. We reserve these rare boards for a few projects a year, so always ask and we’ll see what we can do. 
Our wide plank flooring is more than just a flooring choice – it’s a design statement. At Coppice & Crown, we invite you to explore how these elegant planks can transform your space. 

Below we’ve expanded on a few of the key benefits to wide board flooring so read on for some 300mm+ inspiration. 

The tradition of wide board flooring is steeped in history, echoing the days when craftsmen would select large trees and hand craft them into floor boards. The earliest floor boards were often not square edged and would simply be ‘slices’ of the tree. This created what we know as a traditional mixed width pattern across the floor- much like our mixed width parcels we produce today. 
As a show of opulence and status, the super wealthy may have employed a craftsman for long periods to design intricate flooring designs, and to cut narrower smaller widths for their flooring- simply saying ‘look how wealthy I am’.
At Coppice & Crown, we continue this tradition, merging historical elegance with modern sustainability. Our wide plank flooring, with widths of up to 300mm, is a nod to this rich heritage of Britains past offering not just a product, but a piece of history to walk upon.

The sustainability benefits.........

Reap the benifits of added sustainability. At Coppice & Crown, our commitment to sustainability is unwavering. Our wide plank flooring is sourced from sustainable forests, ensuring that we minimise our environmental footprint. The larger planks mean fewer cuts and less waste, making wide board flooring a more eco-friendly option. By choosing our wide plank flooring, you’re not only making a style statement but also a statement of your commitment to the environment- what’s not to love.

One of the most compelling aspects of wide plank flooring is its rarity and the exclusive appeal it brings to any space. In a world where mass-produced and generic designs are commonplace, wide board flooring stands out as a distinctive choice.

The wider planks are not as commonly found in the market due to the larger and older trees required to produce them, which are less abundant and more challenging to source sustainably. This rarity adds an exclusivity to your space, ensuring that your flooring is not just a surface to walk on, but a statement piece that reflects a choice for uniqueness and quality. At Coppice & Crown, we specialise in sourcing and crafting these rare, wide planks, offering our clients a touch of luxury and distinction that is hard to find elsewhere.

Unparalleled floor design........

Wide plank flooring is not just a flooring option; it’s a centerpiece that commands attention the moment one enters the room. The impressive width of each plank, which can reach up to 300mm, creates a bold and expansive look that is both striking and elegant. These wide planks reduce the number of seams on the floor, resulting in a cleaner, more continuous look that accentuates the natural beauty of the wood.

The grains, knots, and unique characteristics of each plank are showcased on a grand scale, turning your floor into a work of art. The visual impact of wide board flooring is unparalleled, offering a sense of luxury and spaciousness that enhances the overall aesthetic of any interior space. At Coppice & Crown, our wide board flooring is designed to not only meet but exceed expectations, providing a visually stunning foundation that elevates the elegance of your home or business.

Whether it’s the expansive beauty, the nod to a rich heritage, the exclusivity, or the sheer visual splendor, traditional wide plank flooring is more than just a functional element of your space; it’s a statement of style, a mark of luxury, and a commitment to quality. At Coppice & Crown, we are proud to continue the legacy of traditional wide board flooring, offering our clients the opportunity to infuse their spaces with a piece of history and an undeniable charm that will endure for generations to come.
