Your floors have a major impact on the character of your home. A beautiful floor draws the eye and can be used as a focal point of the space. One of the most popular flooring options that has stood the test of time is hardwood flooring.

Shaw Epic Plus Hardwood

Shaw is one of the leading manufacturers of flooring in the entire world and their Epic Plus Hardwood line is manufactured here in the United States in Georgia and in Tennessee. The Epic line is hand scraped by local prisoners giving them job skills and a wage while imprisoned but also supports their victims’ funds as well. The Epic line also uses 50% less newly harvested wood than their competitor products by using recycled wood materials in their patented core structure. Shaw is also dedicated to sustainability and they are certified Cradle to Cradle which means that their products are certified to be safe for consumers and can be reused or recycled after use. They are currently running at 65% Cradle to Cradle products but have pledged to become 100% by 2030.

They are known for their Amish hand scraped finish collections created by their local Amish communities.
