Start with the tones and lighting within your space.

Light tones tend to brighten rooms and conceal dust more effectively than dark tones. Dark tones, on the other hand, create contrast and depth, depending on the surrounding design elements. Neutral mid-tones offer versatility across a variety of aesthetics.

Plank & Co offers samples, allowing you to see how each colour looks firsthand. Note: Due to the natural beauty of real wood, product photos and samples may not capture the full range of colour, grain, and character variation. To ensure this product is the perfect match for your project, please consult a Plank & Co representative.

There are more similarities than differences between North American White Oak and European Oak. Both woods are durable and will perform equally well in residential and commercial environments. However, there are some subtle differences between these two wood species.

The most notable difference in Plank & Co products lies in tone and grain. European Oak tends to have a slightly more pronounced grain and produces warmer-toned colours due to its higher concentration of tannins. In contrast, White Oak has a tighter grain pattern and a more neutral base.

Plank & Co products are made with consistent engineered construction standards within each wood type. All North American White Oak products feature a ⅝” (16mm) thickness with a 4mm top wear layer, while all European Oak products have a 15mm thickness with a 3mm top wear layer. All planks are 7” wide, range from 3’ to 8’ in length, and come with a hardwax oil finish in character grade.

Nine of the ten products have a sanded surface, while one features a brushed surface. These specifications are listed on each product page. The primary differences across the Plank & Co collection are in tone and grain.
