Apex Wood Floors announces the debut of “Revival”
In recent months, more of our customers have asked us about eco-friendly hardwood flooring. At the very heart of sustainability is the re-use of materials already in existence. No other flooring product on earth is greener or has the character, history and stability as a “Revival” floor from Apex. We are thrilled to offer this product to you.

“Revival” is a striking antique collection of reclaimed wide-plank hardwood flooring. “Revival” is comprised exclusively of enduring, old wood rescued from abandoned structures across the United States. The smart and sustainable “Revival” collection is pre-finished and available in three wood species – American chestnut, oak and long-leaf yellow pine – with each of the species featuring a rich pallet that includes more than a dozen colors.

This spectacular, head-turning collection is ideal for remodels. You will enjoy a stunning, storied antique floor that will warm any area of your interior.

Quick facts:

• The dramatic planks in the “Revival” collection were rescued and repurposed – brought back to life only from the most enduring vintage hardwoods. Otherwise, they would have been candidates for teardowns headed for demolition and eventually landfills.
• Most of the buildings from which the hardwood planks originated were abandoned structures – churches, houses, schools and barns to name a few.
• No plank is the same; each has its own distinctive properties.
• Each age-hardened plank is extremely stable (the natural process of the wood expanding and contracting hundreds of times over the changing seasons yields wood with remarkable strength).
• Every original nail was removed by hand.
• Each plank is kiln-dried before milling to ensure the antique floor in the new owners’ home will remain stable, trouble-free and beautiful for generations.
• Retail cost is affordable, starting at $23 per square foot installed.
• Each “Revival” floor includes an engraved plank that commemorates the origin and circa date of the floor, a perfect conversation-starter when visitors set foot in your home.
We’re happy to send a sample to you or show you “Revival” in person at any time. Call or e-mail us to find out more about “Revival”, as well as our custom hardwood flooring.

Merry Christmas!
