Since mid-August, Samuel Vonrüti has taken over group responsibility for marketing at the Bauwerk Group.

Boen is glad to announce that we have achieved FloorScore® certification for all its European produced hardwood flooring products. Boen has a long history of environmental leadership and underscores this with systematic checks by independent third parties, such as the eco-INSTITUT, the Blue Angel certification, and now FloorScore® certification.

As wood being a product of nature our inspiration for our new products will always be connected to the diversity of natural materials. The colours of our new products are a part of the earthy colours that we also see in today’s interior trends. We like it soft and warm, combined with natural elements.

The group-wide sustainability report of the Bauwerk Group was prepared in accordance with the International Reporting Standard (GRI) and shows our aspirations in our group`s major sustainability issues. The following is an excerpt of the most important aspects from the report 2020.

18 prize winners received this honour from publisher SN-Verlagshaus this year, more than ever before in the history of the award.

Nature displays the most incredible colours and materials that give us great inspiration and are becoming more and more important for us. This is what our new floors are based on, the importance and inspiration from nature.

To support and give extra service for the users to decide which parquet floor they would like to buy, we are now launching Split View on Floor Finder.

Patterned floors are again, highly relevant, whether you prefer Herringbone or Chevron. Even though they look pretty similar there are some differences, both historical and design wise. Both patterns create a distinguished look that highlights any room.

We are happy to launch our new AI Tool – myRoom! An inspirational tool made for making it easier for you to get a vision of how the floor would look like in your home.

Here at BOEN we are taking all the recommended precautions, yet our teams around the world are still operational.

Chevron is an inverted V-shaped pattern. The first use of this can be traced back to old pottery design in Knossos, Crete which dates back to the Bronze Age.

As a wood-processing production company, we have long been aware of our environmental and social responsibilities.
