Twelve Oaks Brand Review: A Canadian Heritage of Quality and Innovation
When we select a brand to feature at GC Flooring, it must align perfectly with our core mission: to provide superior quality floor coverings that add lasting value to Canadian family homes and businesses.
For over 30 years, since opening our doors in Ottawa in 1995, we have committed to only selling products we can stand behind. This rigorous standard is why we are proud to offer the innovative, high-value flooring collections from Twelve Oaks.
Timeless Design Rooted in Canadian Values
Twelve Oaks is a recognized North American leader in the flooring industry, and like GC Flooring, they are a family-owned and operated company focused on providing customers with quality, aesthetics, durability, and value.
This shared commitment to Canadian excellence and long-term customer satisfaction makes them a vital partner in our national commitment to supplying all 10 provinces.
Twelve Oaks’ Philosophy:
Twelve Oaks’ philosophy revolves around three pillars: Design, Quality, and Value. Their approach to product development is intensely customer-driven—they listen to what homeowners and contractors need, resulting in flooring solutions that are both current and timeless.
- Design and Aesthetics: Twelve Oaks excels at translating natural inspiration into stunning floor coverings. Their collections, particularly their engineered hardwood and high-end luxury vinyl, feature beautiful, rich finishes, authentic textures, and popular dimensions like wide planks that cater directly to current Canadian design trends.
- Family and Corporate Values: Inspired by the enduring 12 Oak trees from Gone With the Wind, the company name symbolizes tenacity and strength. This philosophy extends into their business practices, emphasizing responsible sourcing, community support, and creating products durable enough to become a lasting foundation for families.
The Commitment to Health and Safety
For a discerning customer base concerned with the health and safety of their family, Twelve Oaks meets and exceeds the industry’s highest standards—a non-negotiable factor for GC Flooring.
- FloorScore® Certification: All Twelve Oaks luxury vinyl and many other products are FloorScore® certified. This is the most recognized indoor air quality (IAQ) certification standard, confirming that the products meet stringent low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) emission criteria. For homeowners, this means cleaner air inside the home.
- CARB Phase II & EPA Compliance: Their engineered products are also certified to comply with strict standards regarding formaldehyde emissions, ensuring their floors are safe for children, pets, and sensitive individuals.
This rigorous product safety testing is fundamental. It assures GC Flooring that every box we ship from our Ottawa base to any of the 10 provinces is a product we can genuinely stand behind without reservation.
Innovation and Durability: High-Value Performance
Twelve Oaks understands that a truly high-value floor must offer longevity and low maintenance.
| Twelve Oaks Feature | Benefit for the Canadian Homeowner |
| Armor Care™ Technology | Featured on select LVP, this coating enhances ease of cleaning and maintenance, perfect for busy family life. |
| Nano-Silver Technology | Included in some collections, offering antimicrobial properties for a healthier home environment. |
| Wide Product Range | Offering Engineered Hardwood, Luxury Vinyl (LVP/SPC), and Laminate, allowing the consumer to find the ideal material for any room or budget. |
The superior construction, like the rigid SPC core in their vinyl lines, ensures the dimensional stability required to handle Canada’s diverse climate, from the humidity of the Atlantic to the dryness of the Prairies.
This focus on long-term performance directly supports GC Flooring’s promise to provide products that add lasting value.
