White Pine

White Pine has the pale gray of pine board that has been washed rather than stained, on a smooth satin face with five random faces per design. Planks are 8 x 48 inches in glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm, 5 per carton for 12.91 sq ft and 25 kg. Gray washed pine belongs in coastal and cottage rooms, alongside white paneling, navy, linen and pale furniture. Compared with Pine Wood in the same grain, the gray reads cooler and calmer. The smooth glaze cleans in one pass, and a long pale plank makes a low ceilinged room feel taller.

• How is White Pine sold?

  White Pine comes in 8 x 48 inch planks, 5 to a box. One box covers 12.91 sq ft and weighs about 55 lb.

• How many boxes of White Pine do I need for a 10 x 12 ft bedroom?

  A 10 x 12 ft room is 120 sq ft. With 10 percent added for cuts and breakage that is 132 sq ft, or 11 boxes at 12.91 sq ft each.

• Can White Pine go over radiant floor heating?

  Yes. It is a glazed ceramic plank 9 to 9.5 mm thick, so it does not gap, cup or split as the floor warms, and it has no 80°F (27°C) surface limit the way engineered wood does.

• What grout joint does White Pine need?

  White Pine is a curve-edge plank, not rectified, so plan on a joint of 3 to 5 mm, about 1/8 to 3/16 inch. The wider joint gives each board its own line, the way real planks sit.
