A wood floor in your home is beautiful and warm and evokes a pleasant feel-good climate. The same holds true outdoors. It is there that one rarely-noticed advantage of wood comes to the fore: it doesn’t warm up as much in the summer as other materials (such as stone or metal) and or cool off as much in the winter.
Because of its long life, hardwood of durability class 1 or 2 (as defined by the DIN EN 350-2 standard) is becoming a popular material for outdoor applications.
