As global environmental issues become increasingly significant, a "low-carbon revolution" has emerged worldwide. Against this backdrop, how to develop and innovate to break through bottlenecks has become the biggest challenge facing the flooring industry. Greenseason Timber was the first to propose a new concept: shifting from merely focusing on whether the wood panels are environmentally friendly or contain formaldehyde, to paying more attention to whether every step of the floor's production and distribution truly achieves environmental protection and low carbon emissions, striving to be a pioneer in green flooring. Last year, Greenseason's green low-carbon underfloor heating floor came into being.

"What we mean by green underfloor heating is combining our super wear-resistant multi-layer solid wood flooring with Korea's far-infrared radiation carbon fiber conductive membrane to create a set of underfloor heating systems, namely dual low-carbon underfloor heating," explained Sun Hegeng, chairman of Greenseason Timber Co., Ltd. Three years ago, he learned that a Korean company had developed an advanced pure resistive heating element but struggled to find a matching underfloor heating floor. This news was like finding a treasure for Sun Hegeng. "Greenseason possesses several hard resources and technical advantages, enjoying the new national standard for heat-resistant and fire-retardant steel-reinforced surface layer underfloor heating floor, which is a national torch project and a double invention patent product. Why not collaborate with them to conquer the world market for underfloor heating floors?" He immediately led his technical personnel to contact the Korean company, and both sides agreed instantly.

After several years of cooperation and research, Greenseason's green low-carbon underfloor heating floor was born. It is understood that this set of underfloor heating systems mainly heats up through connecting the power source of the underfloor heating membrane, emitting heat energy evenly in the form of planar radiation, and then the hot air gradually rises, allowing people to enjoy warmth from below. Compared to traditional heating, green low-carbon underfloor heating reduces costs by over 30%. With this ace up its sleeve, Greenseason successfully entered the underfloor heating floor market, and its identity also quietly changed, shifting from selling floors to selling solutions.

Currently, traditional radiator-style and air conditioning heating methods are gradually being replaced by underfloor heating, and industry insiders are optimistic about this market. As one of the four major national standard setters in China's flooring industry, Greenseason’s status as a leader in super wear-resistant multi-layer solid wood (underfloor heating) floors catches the eye, and its products have caused a strong reaction in the market since their launch.

Renovation is a task filled with countless "dilemmas," often making it difficult to choose between many products and leaving many regrets. A typical example is the "two difficult" problem caused by the increasing prevalence of underfloor heating products.

Generally speaking, using underfloor heating means you can no longer use solid wood floors, a widely known "theorem." Designers and renovation workers will tell you that solid wood floors deform when they encounter underfloor heating. Therefore, people have to reluctantly give up the comfortable foot feel of solid wood floors and opt for tiles or laminate floors due to stability considerations, settling for second best.

In Scandinavia, where underfloor heating was first used, this issue also troubled them for decades. Taking Iceland as an example, a country where over 90% of energy comes from geothermal sources, they were among the earliest and most in-depth developers of underfloor heating extension products. The Nordic people have always valued quality of life and never abandoned research on this issue. After decades of continuous experimentation, the creators of Nokia and Volvo finally discovered a method that could completely alter the physical properties of solid wood materials. Solid wood floors treated with this method significantly reduce the likelihood of deformation when exposed to high temperatures. This is called "FDT" - Fiber Durable Tech (wood fiber curing technology).

Simply put, the FDT treatment process involves using ultra-high temperatures to cure the "active fibers" in wood under high-pressure semi-vacuum conditions, reducing the wood's moisture absorption and minimizing the possibility of expansion and contraction.

The emergence of FDT technology solved the long-standing "big problem" in the wood application industry that had persisted for hundreds of years. Various industries such as furniture, wooden structures, and construction have all adopted it. Due to its high technical content and processing difficulty, this technology has been reserved for some high-end wood product ranges. And the first company to apply this technology to flooring products was Sweden's Kronospan, Europe's largest flooring manufacturer.

In 1999, Swedish wood scientist Sundqvist found after treating various types of wood with FDT that there were also noticeable differences in appearance characteristics before and after treatment. The most significant change was the deepening of color, a phenomenon seen in flooring products where some light-colored species could exhibit natural dark colors. For example, Europeans prefer oak, and people usually refer to FDT-treated oak as "OakinBlack" (Night Oak).

Dexiong Kronospan introduced this new product from Northern Europe, preserving the original Nordic charm while making some adjustments based on domestic apartment layouts and lighting conditions, making it more suitable for domestic consumers. The first phase of Dexiong Kronospan's "FDT" underfloor heating products includes five varieties: Icelandic oak, Greenland oak, Oran oak, Faroe oak, and Oslo oak, all mainstream products popular in the European market. The colors range from light to dark in three gradients, allowing consumers to choose the most suitable style based on their different decoration styles and preferences.

The launch of Dexiong Kronospan's FDT underfloor heating floor has been welcomed by many high-end customers, especially in northern China, where underfloor heating systems are relatively widespread. For them, they no longer need to sacrifice the comfort of their living space due to quality concerns, nor endure the hardness of tiles because of the dilemma between "fish and bear's paw."

Home is the warmest place in the world, and Dexiong Kronospan's FDT series adds softness to this warmth.

From now on, there's no need to "worry" because of underfloor heating. The dream of dual tranquility has become a reality, and this is Dexiong Kronospan's solution.
