Bellawood premium hardwoods are selected from the finest woods. Domestic species are chosen from northern US and Appalachian forests with colder climates. These trees grow more slowly, creating a denser, stronger wood, which then becomes a more visually appealing floor. Bellawood exotic species are specifically chosen for their unique, distinct looks and durability. Bellawood floors use our most durable finish and are backed by an industry-leading transferrable, 100-year warranty for generations of beauty.
