It is the long-board option in the Empress family, meant to read like wide oak flooring from room to room, while the smaller 4x16 and the 24x24 parquet panel handle more decorative layouts. High (V3) shade variation makes plank-to-plank color shifts pronounced, which helps the oak visual avoid obvious repeats across a big floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, hallways, basements and covered patios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eColors\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNaturale 00200:\u003c\/strong\u003e a natural honey oak with a classic, sunlit warmth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAntico 00270:\u003c\/strong\u003e an aged, warm oak with an Old World, lived-in character.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose Empress 8x48\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong 8x48 planks for a wide-board oak floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh (V3) variation so planks look individually milled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpervious porcelain that will not cup or swell like wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWet DCOF of 0.42 or higher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrost resistant for porches and patios\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.374\" thick, made in Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere to Install\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEmpress 8x48 is rated for floors and works on walls as well. Use it anywhere you want an oak floor but need water resistance: kitchens, baths, basements and mudrooms. It is frost resistant, so the planks can carry out to a porch or patio. Set the long planks with a random or one-third offset, never a 50% offset, and use a leveling system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the best offset for Empress 8x48 planks?\u003c\/strong\u003e Lay Shaw Empress 8x48 planks with a random or one-third offset (no more than 33%).
