Universal Floors is the only distributor for Hakwood

in the Washington, D.C. area.

Hakwood specializes in the manufacture of
wide-width, long-length flooring. Utilizing
sustainable resources in Europe, the US
and from around the world, Hakwood
produces state of the art solid & engineered flooring.

Hakwood wide-width engineered flooring is
a stable, beautiful, versatile, and environmentally responsible

choice for your hardwood floors.


Hakwood is a proud member of the Hak group of companies, a world-wide

operating family business of which the foundation dates back to 1903.

Hakwood was founded in 1979 and became a major industrial producer

of wood products.

Hakwood’s product range has expanded to a large program of both

solid and engineered flooring products for the professional market.

Over the last decade Hakwood has developed a great experience in the

production of engineered flooring products.

Hakwood engineered flooring is the solution for wide stable wood flooring.

In the past the fear of swelling, twisting, warping and shrinking have

prevented distributors from supplying wide boards with confidence.

However these concerns can be put aside as Hakwood engineered

flooring provides the solution.

The reason for the stability and durability of Hakwood Engineered Flooring

is its unique structure. A 14 mm water resistant plywood back layer

together with a 6 mm solid Hardwood top layer ensures a stable durable

product. Hakwood flooring gives the appearance and properties of a

solid board, together with all the advantages of engineered flooring.

Hakwood pays great attention to the selection of wood and wood suppliers.

The purchase department travels all over the world to ensure that top

quality products are delivered by reliable suppliers.

At different stages of production Hakwood’s wood flooring is sorted

and inspected to insure that each grade meets its requirements. Before finished

products are dispatched, each production is thoroughly inspected in the laboratory.
These engineered flooring products are produced by a “State of Art”

process, ensuring excellent quality control. Hakwood always concentrates

on industrial research and development in order to continuously improve

its state of the art production process and maintain its leading position.

Hakwood’s facilities are located half an hour away from one

of the world’s major ports - Rotterdam. This allows access

for international transportation to every conceivable destination.

Our distribution service takes pride in successfully catering the

needs of the most demanding customers. Our production and

storage facilities (approx.16 acres) are equipped with state

of the art wood processing equipment, climate controlled

factory areas for improved products, and all that is necessary

for efficient loading and unloading. Both the raw material and the

finished products in stock allow for flexiblity in meeting customer demands.
