About the Brand

Green Touch Engineered Hardwood Flooring

Two engineered hardwood floors can look identical in a photo and still be very different underfoot, because what matters is the real wood wear layer you cannot see online. Green Touch Floors is genuine White Oak, American Oak, Maple, and Hickory engineered hardwood, in both thick 3/4 inch tongue-and-groove boards and easy 1/2 inch click planks, plus a rigid core vinyl line for waterproof rooms. Every board is CARB II and FloorScore certified and carries a 25 year warranty.

Squarefoot Flooring carries the range at both stores, Mississauga (700 Dundas St E, Unit 3-4) and Barrie (112 Saunders Rd, Units 1-4), so you can handle the boards and compare species below before you buy.

Why Green Touch Floors Stands Out

What Green Touch Floors is

Green Touch Floors is an engineered hardwood brand built around real wood wear layers, not printed looks. The range covers White Oak, American Oak, Maple, Hickory, and Red Oak, in smooth, wire-brushed, and hand-scraped surfaces, plus a rigid core vinyl line for rooms where water rules wood out. Every board is CARB II and FloorScore certified and backed by a 25 year warranty. The collection names lean European, with White Oak colours drawn from Italian cities like Lucca, Siena, and Verona and alpine landmarks like Geneva and Como.

In simple terms: engineered hardwood is a real wood surface bonded to a stable plywood-style base, so it behaves better than solid wood over concrete and through humidity swings. Green Touch gives you that in genuine oak, maple, and hickory, in both thick 3/4 inch tongue-and-groove boards and easy 1/2 inch click planks. The rigid core vinyl covers basements and bathrooms where real wood should not go.

The Green Touch collections

White Oak: Elegance and Purity

The flagship. Wide White Oak boards with a 3 mm real-oak veneer on the premium runs and a 2 mm veneer on the standard runs, in warm browns, soft naturals, and greyed tones. This is the go-to for main living areas and open-concept homes.

American Oak: Premium

Long 7 inch boards in a broad colour run, from Natural and Chateau through to Wenge and Metal Gray. The extra board length reads calmer and more high-end across a large floor.

Maple & Hickory: Rustic

Hand-scraped maple and wire-brushed hickory with real texture underfoot. The surface movement hides day-to-day wear, which suits busy family homes and cottages.

Antique click and rigid core vinyl

Red Oak, Maple, and Hickory in a 1/2 inch click board for faster floating installs, plus an 8 mm rigid core vinyl with a 20 mil wear layer for fully waterproof rooms.

Which Green Touch construction to choose

Two Green Touch floors can look almost identical and install completely differently. The real decision is veneer thickness and how the board goes down. Here is the plain-English version.

BuildInstallRefinishingBest forWhite Oak, 3 mm veneer, 3/4 in T&GNail down or glue downCan usually take one light sand and recoatLong-term main floors and resale valueWhite Oak, 2 mm veneer, 3/4 in T&GNail down or glue downScreen and recoat rather than full sandingA real white oak surface with a lighter wear layerRed Oak / Maple / Hickory, 1/2 in clickFloating click over underlayNot designed for sandingCondos, concrete subfloors, faster installsRigid core vinyl, 8 mm, 20 milFloating clickNot applicableBasements, bathrooms, fully waterproof zones

Decision: If this is a forever floor in the main living space, the 3 mm veneer 3/4 inch White Oak is the one to see first. If you are going over concrete in a condo or want a quicker floating install, the 1/2 inch click is the smarter build. Cross-shop it with our hardwood vs vinyl guide before you commit.

Where Green Touch hardwood works

  • Main living, dining, and bedrooms: the 3/4 inch tongue-and-groove boards feel substantial and are the natural fit for the primary floor of a house.
  • Condos and over concrete: the 1/2 inch click boards float over an underlay, which is often the practical choice above grade. See the best flooring for a Toronto condo.
  • Barrie and Simcoe County homes: engineered construction copes with seasonal humidity better than solid wood. Browse hardwood in Barrie.
  • Basements and bathrooms: real wood does not belong in standing-water risk zones, which is where the rigid core vinyl or a waterproof wood-look takes over.

Truth: No engineered hardwood is waterproof, and that is fine. Wood is for the rooms where it can be a wood floor. For laundry rooms, full baths, and below-grade basements, the honest answer is the rigid core vinyl line, not a hardwood board.

Why Green Touch holds up

Certification and construction are what separate a floor that ages well from one that does not, and Green Touch is specified sensibly on both.

CARB II and FloorScore certification means the boards meet strict formaldehyde and indoor air-quality limits, which matters in bedrooms and sealed condos. The real-oak, maple, and hickory wear layers are true wood you can feel, and the 3 mm veneer runs can be refreshed down the road rather than replaced. All of it sits under a 25 year warranty. For fitting, our hardwood installation page walks through how we do it.

Seeing, buying, and installing Green Touch

The full Green Touch range is still being loaded onto the site, so the fastest way to see current species, colours, and grades is to visit a store or call the store. Both Squarefoot locations carry the brand and can order any collection from the current book.

Squarefoot installs what it sells. Hardwood is fitted by our own in-house crews, residential and commercial, not subcontractors, so the team advising you on veneer and grade is the same team accountable for the finished floor. If you have been searching for hardwood flooring near me, both stores welcome walk-ins, and you can compare boards in Mississauga or find hardwood near you in Barrie. Bring your room measurements and we will work out box quantities with you.

Common Questions About Green Touch Floors

Quick answers about Green Touch Floors, materials, and shopping at Squarefoot Flooring.

What is Green Touch Floors engineered hardwood?
Green Touch Floors is an engineered hardwood brand with real wood wear layers in White Oak, American Oak, Maple, Hickory, and Red Oak, in smooth, wire-brushed, and hand-scraped surfaces. It also includes a rigid core vinyl line for waterproof rooms. Every board is CARB II and FloorScore certified and backed by a 25 year warranty.
What is the difference between the 3mm and 2mm White Oak veneer?
Both have a genuine white oak surface. The 3 mm veneer has a thicker real-wood wear layer that can usually take one light sand and recoat later in its life, which suits long-term main floors. The 2 mm veneer is better suited to a screen and recoat rather than a full sanding. Both are 3/4 inch tongue-and-groove boards.
Should I choose tongue-and-groove or click Green Touch flooring?
The 3/4 inch tongue-and-groove boards are nailed or glued down and feel substantial, which makes them the natural pick for the main floors of a house. The 1/2 inch click boards float over an underlay, which is often the more practical choice in condos and over concrete subfloors, and installs faster.
Is Green Touch engineered hardwood waterproof?
No engineered hardwood is waterproof, and Green Touch hardwood is no exception. For basements, full bathrooms, and laundry rooms, the right choice is the Green Touch rigid core vinyl line, which has a waterproof core and a 20 mil wear layer.
Where can I see and buy Green Touch flooring?
Squarefoot Flooring carries Green Touch at both showrooms: Mississauga at 700 Dundas St E, Unit 3-4, and Barrie at 112 Saunders Rd, Units 1-4. Because the full range is still being added to the website, calling the store or visiting in person is the fastest way to see current species, colours, and grades.
Does Squarefoot install Green Touch hardwood?
Yes. Hardwood is fitted by Squarefoot's own in-house crews for both residential and commercial projects, not subcontractors, across Toronto, Mississauga, and Barrie. The same team that advises you on veneer and grade is accountable for the finished floor.
