Lauzon Exclusive Hard Maple Kenya is a Canadian-made solid hardwood flooring with a rich, deep earth-tone brown stain — a bold, grounding colour that brings warmth and sophistication to any GTA home or renovation project. The Exclusive grade delivers a mostly even-looking surface with only slight natural colour variation, allowing the Kenya stain's depth and richness to read consistently across the entire floor without dramatic plank-to-plank contrast.
Lauzon has been manufacturing premium Canadian hardwood flooring since 1985. The Exclusive Collection features Lauzon's Polynium+ Titanium finish — a harder, more durable surface coating than standard aluminum oxide, with antimicrobial PermaClean technology and zero harsh chemicals. Hard Maple is one of the hardest domestic wood species available in Canada at 1,450 lbf on the Janka scale, and its tight, closed grain makes it the ideal canvas for a deep, saturated stain like Kenya — absorbing colour evenly and smoothly without the blotchiness that can occur on more open-grained species like Red Oak.

Why Choose Lauzon Exclusive Hard Maple Kenya?
Dark hardwood floors have a timeless appeal — and Kenya delivers that rich, deep brown tone that anchors a room and makes every other finish in the space feel intentional. It works beautifully with light walls and cabinetry, where the contrast creates drama and visual depth, as well as with warm walnut and leather furniture tones where the floor reads as a natural extension of the palette. It's a particularly strong choice for formal living rooms, dining rooms, home offices, and master bedrooms across the GTA where a premium, serious aesthetic is the goal.
What makes Kenya on Hard Maple stand apart from dark-stained oak or walnut alternatives is consistency. Maple's tight, closed grain accepts a deep stain with exceptional evenness — no blotchy patches, no uneven uptake between planks. The Exclusive grade further controls variation, giving you a floor where every box opens to the same rich, uniform tone. This is the kind of result that renovation contractors in North York, Thornhill, and Markham rely on when the client wants a dark floor that looks custom-specified and premium rather than variable and unpredictable. Solid ¾" construction means it can also be sanded and refinished multiple times over its lifetime — a long-term investment that outlasts any renovation trend.
Installation Notes
This is a solid ¾" hardwood and must be nailed or stapled to a plywood subfloor. It is not suitable for installation over concrete or below-grade (basement) applications. We recommend acclimating the product for a minimum of 3–5 days in the installation area before beginning work. Professional installation is available across the GTA — ask us about our hardwood installation service.
