What is a Low Profile Option Floor?

When spaces are designed and it is known ahead of time that a wood floor will be installed, a depression is made in the sub-floor to accommodate the new wood flooring. So, for new builds, the floor must be specified so the design can take the thickness of the floor into consideration. For renovation, it is much easier to specify a floor that fits into the existing sub-floor depression.

Low profile flooring is designed to provide all or most of the performance of a standard system but do so in minimal slab depressions. In other words, the floor is not “tall”.
