0 Eucalyptus flooring is always a great choice, but our Malted Ale color is especially warm and inviting. Explore the power of this engineered eucalyptus flooring, from durability to environmental friendliness.
If you’re hoping for durable and gorgeous floors, you’ve found them. Our Malted Ale eucalyptus flooring is a shade darker than our natural Tupelo Honey Eucalyptus Flooring, but still retains the beautiful and unique grain style that defines our strand engineered eucalyptus flooring.
Eucalyptus from well-managed farms can be harvested for flooring in under 5 years. This makes it one of the most environmentally friendly hardwoods available in today's market. Our eucalyptus wood flooring is many times harder than traditional hardwoods, so these floors are extremely durable and completely gorgeous.
With Janka hardness ratings up to 5,300, our eucalyptus wood flooring can handle all types of wear and use, plus you get the industry leading lifetime structural and finish warranty. Get a sample today and check it out for yourself!
As a disclaimer, many fans of malts and ales will be disappointed to find that our Malted Ale flooring is NOT made for human consumption. The great news is that our eucalyptus flooring ranks well above toxic emission standards such as EPA TSCA Title VI & CARB Phase II. We wouldn’t recommend taste testing these floors, but you can rest assured that the air in your home is safe!

FloorScore® Certification means that a flooring product is independently certified by SCS to comply with the volatile organic compound emissions criteria of the California Section 01350 Program. Any product that has met these stringent standards is a product that will contribute to good indoor air quality. The FloorScore® certification means healthier, cleaner air.
This floor is covered by Ambient's Lifetime Structural and Finish Warranty. All of our products are designed to last for a long, long time.
This floor is extremely hard and dent-resistant, and holds up great against dogs and other pets when it comes to long term wear. It will stand up to your kids too!
This floor not only contains practically zero VOC's and is safe for your family, it also stands up to the punishment that your little (and big) ones are going to dish out. If you're looking for a woodfloor that can be sprung on by your offspring, your search has ended.
We are all guilty especially when it comes to dropping clangy pots and pans in the kitchen. This floor will hold up much better than any other woodfloor in a kitchen. It's not completely water-proof (not much is) but if reasonably cared for it is one of the most water-resistant wood floors on the market.
At Ambient we offer customers in the U.S. and Canada a 30-day money back guarantee on all flooring orders and we are dedicated to your complete satisfaction. Please read the complete program details here.
