Distressed Tobaccowood Reclaimed Flooring
This reclaimed wood flooring is manufactured from wood that comes from heat cured tobacco barns and
has been FSC certified. The barns are carefully dismantled to salvage this beautiful antique lumber
from these types of structures. LEED credit is available for this reclaimed wood flooring product.
For a significant era in our country's history, the economy thrived on tobacco. Farmers across the
southeast constructed large open barns to hang and heat cure their tobacco. Now these buildings are
no more than a reminder of days gone by. These barns, and others like them, yield a mix of pines and
softwoods with a beautiful tobacco colored patina. Expect to see colorful heartwood, large knots,
and occasional nail holes.
When milling this floor, Cochrans takes the utmost care to preserve the weathered patina and
characteristics left in the original face of the tobacco barn siding or structural material. Expect
to see colorful heartwood, large knots, nail holes, dents and dings, and of
course the rich tobacco patina in our Tobaccowood flooring. This distressed grade features
nail holes, rough saw kerf, dents and dings, and a wonderful palette of reds and browns give this
floor a look unlike any other. This floor is a great way to add an authentic touch to any home.

non-tinted finish applied to the product, increasing the gloss and accenting the
patina. If you would like a sample we can ship it to you for a nominal fee of

flooring product!
