New, American-made line offers quick delivery, lower price point with standardized specifications

STODDARD, N.H., May 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Carlisle Wide Plank Floors, the leader in artisan-crafted wide plank hardwood flooring for residential and commercial spaces, has introduced the Essentials Collection, a line of eight popular colors on White Oak that currently ship in eight weeks. With names such as Cashmere, Leather, Merino, Pearl, Pewter, Suede, Tweed and Velvet, the wide plank floors in the Essentials Collection are inspired by time-honored fabrics and materials that pair with everything. Color tones in the collection range from subtle whites and gray washes to deeply pigmented browns and blacks, offering a foundation for a range of architectural and interior design styles.

Pearl lights up spaces with a natural radiance that is both weathered and elegant. A smooth, creamy hue washes over a sand-colored base, delicately revealing the flow of the wood grain. Equally at home in beach houses or urban lofts, Pearl casts a natural glow that never goes out of style.

The velvety nap of suede leather deepens when rubbed against the grain. We have captured this color variation in the subtly shifting tones in Suede. A clear finish enhances the natural gradations of the white oak, highlighting the beautiful patterns of the wood grain. Suede magnifies the innate beauty of oak, bringing elegant simplicity to interiors.

Cashmere offers all the versatility and elegance of a cashmere sweater. It can be formal or casual and look stunning on its own or dressed up with the finest furnishings. The soft brown finish has a hint of grey that comes to the forefront in the subtle grainlines, crafting a neutral backdrop to showcase any architectural style and interior décor.

The American-made line combines the handcrafted quality of Carlisle floors with a set menu of selections that enable the company to hold inventory to expedite shipping and reduce costs. Floors in the Essentials Collection are priced below the company's comparable custom floors and the minimum order is just 400 square feet – half the minimum of other Carlisle collections.

"We wanted to buck the trend toward much longer lead times and higher costs caused by the global disruption in the supply chain. With the Essentials Collection, we provide an option that offers the Carlisle quality with shorter lead times and an enticing price point," explains Chris Sy, company President.

The Essentials Collection uses American-sourced White Oak. The heirloom-grade engineered planks in the collection are offered in two- to ten-foot lengths. Each plank is six inches wide and 5/8 inch thick, with a smooth texture and an extra matte sheen. While customization is available, eight-week turnaround and lower pricing is only available for orders using standard specifications.

The collection can be ordered through Carlisle showrooms or by contacting Carlisle directly.
