MORE and Listone Giordano /

Wood is a natural material, appreciated by many for the warmth it brings to interiors, but it is also a living material: it adapts and transforms according to climatic changes, just like human beings. To preserve the features of a wooden floor over time, it is essential to maintain a controlled indoor climate, avoiding strong fluctuations in humidity and temperature. The combination of MORE’s climate control efficiency and the high quality of Listone Giordano parquet makes it possible today to fully enhance an investment in wellbeing, safety, and quality of life.

Yes, it can! But it is necessary to ensure that the climate of the space is controlled, avoiding large fluctuations in humidity and temperature. The efficiency of MORE solutions makes it possible to preserve the features of a wooden floor over time, maximising an investment in wellbeing, safety and quality of life. Wood is a natural material, but it is also a living material: it adapts and transforms based on climatic variations, just like human beings. MORE solutions control temperature, humidity and air quality through systems inspired by a simple principle: the imitation of nature.

To ensure maximum well-being for humans and wood within an environment, an important factor to consider is humidity. The ideal climate for humans coincides exactly with the most comfortable conditions for parquet. MORE is the key to the design and creation of architectural spaces that are environmentally friendly, energy efficient and ensure a better quality of life.

The air temperature should not fall below 15 °C, but, most importantly, the relative humidity should always remain in the range of 35% to 65%. The most critical condition occurs in winter in rooms heated to very high temperatures. Too dry a climate can make humans more vulnerable to attacks by pathogens. Dry air can in fact facilitate the spread of viruses, bacteria and fungi, resulting in the development of viral infections. And what about parquet? Shrinkage can occur in parquet. Parquet is made of natural wood, a porous material that is subject to changes in humidity. When the environment becomes very dry, the moisture in the wood can evaporate, causing the parquet boards to shrink. On the other hand, too-high humidity facilitates the onset of discomfort and fatigue in humans. Instead, wood would tend to swell. When the humidity in the environment is high, wood absorbs moisture from the air. Moisture absorption can lead to the boards lifting, cracks appearing, or the finish deteriorating.

Preserving the right climate is essential to ensure long life and health for ourselves and our floor. MORE is the ideal choice.

We need to change our lifestyles to safeguard our future. This does not mean settling for lower levels of well-being and comfort. Today, it is possible to optimise energy consumption with MORE’s high-efficiency systems, while maintaining maximum control over well-being indicators and without renouncing the “warmth” of a top-quality Listone Giordano wooden floor.
