Medium Plank Wood Flooring
Medium plank wood flooring features boards typically between 160mm and 190mm in width, which are widely considered the standard format for modern British homes. Offering a perfect mid-width balance, these standard planks provide more surface area to showcase natural grain than narrow planks, without the dominant, ultra-wide look of oversized wide plank boards.
Medium plank wood flooring is an adaptable and enduring choice that provides a harmonious look throughout the home. These standard wood planks are an excellent solution for various living spaces, such as a living room or a dining room, as the mid-width format helps to create a sense of grounded stability without overpowering the room's architectural features. Whether you prefer a contemporary 190mm engineered oak floor or a more traditional 180mm width board, this style brings a balanced texture to your interior that works in synergy with your décor.
Our range includes medium engineered wood flooring available in a wide array of finishes, from muted grey tones to warm natural oak. In a standard hallway or a bedroom, these mid-width boards are often used to create a sophisticated, tailored aesthetic that feels intentional and well-proportioned. For those looking to achieve a cohesive design across multiple rooms, including stairs or a home office, the medium plank serves as the ultimate all-rounder, offering the structural benefits of modern manufacturing while maintaining a classic profile. (Natural collection) is also perfect for versatility and achieving continuity across different spaces.
For homeowners looking to blend styles, these standard-format boards are a frequent choice for conservatories and kitchens due to their impressive dimensional stability. While they offer more visual space than narrow planks, they remain easier to handle and install in smaller spaces than their wider counterparts.

Is medium plank flooring suitable for use with underfloor heating?
Yes, our 180mm and 190mm engineered boards are specifically designed for stability. This standard format allows heat to transfer efficiently, making it an ideal partner for underfloor heating in areas like kitchens or living rooms.
What is the difference between mid-width and wide planks?
While wide planks (often 191mm+) are used to create a minimalist, expansive feel in large areas, mid-width or medium planks (180mm-190mm) are designed for versatility. They provide a more traditional look to the floor that suits standard UK room scales.
Why is 180mm - 190mm considered the standard wood plank width?
This range is the industry standard because it mirrors the proportions of traditional floorboards while providing a clean, modern look. It is wide enough to showcase the wood's natural character but narrow enough to remain proportional in almost any room size.
