Grown
in the Alps

Four generations of craft, one honest material: real wood

Read our story
Our story

We grow floors slowly, the way a valley grows a forest: patiently, and with respect for what comes after us.

LARIX Parquet began in 1958 in a single Alpine workshop, pressing herringbone by hand for the chalets and civic halls of the region. Almost seventy years later the presses are larger and the reach is global, but the belief has not moved. A floor should outlive the people who lay it. Everything we make starts in responsibly managed forests and ends as a surface that families walk on for decades.

The four things we will never compromise, whatever the order book says.

01

Sourced responsibly

Every plank is traceable to a managed European forest. We plant more than we take, and we can tell you which valley your floor grew in.

02

Made in the Alps

Cutting, drying and finishing all happen within a day of the forest. Short journeys, tight tolerances, and hands that have done this for years.

03

Built for generations

Solid wear layers can be sanded and re-oiled many times over. A LARIX floor is repaired, not replaced, and it ages into character.

04

Honest materials

Natural oils, real oak and larch, no shortcuts hidden under a coating. What you see on the surface is what runs all the way through.

Precision learned from the mountains

Wood that survives an Alpine winter has to be worked with care. That discipline shaped our house: exact moisture control, calm timelines and joinery measured in fractions of a millimetre. The result is a floor that stays flat, quiet and true for a very long time.

By the numbers
Wood and sustainability

From forest to floor, with less taken along the way

We buy from forests that are managed for the long term, dry with recovered heat, and turn offcuts into energy rather than waste. Sustainability here is not a label on the box, it is the reason the business can still exist in another seventy years.

Assorted parquet wood samples in different tones and grain patterns

Five surfaces we tend by hand, each named for the way the grain is set and pressed.

A short walk through almost seventy years of laying floors.

  1. 1958

    The workshop opens in an Alpine valley, pressing herringbone by hand for local chalets and halls.

  2. 1974

    The first mechanised herringbone line lets us serve towns and cities beyond the valley.

  3. 1996

    Certified sourcing becomes standard: every plank now traceable to a managed forest.

  4. 2011

    The Room Visualizer launches, letting people preview a floor in their own home before ordering.

  5. 2026

    Production moves to fully measured, carbon-accounted manufacturing across every site.
