Goodwin Heart Pine: Beauty Underfoot...
Designers and builders worldwide consider Goodwin’s River-Recovered™ and Legacy Heart Pine™ the timber of choice in hardwood flooring and paneling.  This is no empty claim:  Goodwin’s River-Recovered™ floors have been featured in U.S. News & World Report, Architectural Digest, Water’s Edge, Southern Living Magazine, Fine Homebuilding's Houses, Country Home and This Old House magazine.

Goodwin rescues sunken Heart Pine and Heart Cypress logs from riverbeds and mills them into fine flooring and paneling - the most frequent use of Heart Pine and Heart Cypress today.

Goodwin’s full range of products can meet any design specifications. Goodwin offers a full line of quality products, including lower-cost alternatives.

For over 120 years River-Recovered Heart Pine™ was preserved in the cool river waters of the southeast. River-Recovered Heart Pine™ is the only reclaimed wood available that comes from the virgin timbers. Goodwin mills the flooring for 100 percent heart face; River-Recovered Heart Pine™ is available in six grades. Revered by the most discerning clients, Goodwin now makes this beautiful resource available to enhance the true beauty of your space.

LEGACY HEART PINE™
History reclaimed from salvage
Goodwin offers Legacy Heart Pine™, a reclaimed salvage wood with occasional nail holes.  Legacy Heart Pine™ comes in 100 percent heart face. Goodwin follows strict turn-of-the-century grading rules.  Our Legacy Pine is available in Select or Vertical grain.

RIVER-RECOVERED HEART CYPRESS™
A most primitive wood
Like our Heart Pine from river-reclaimed logs, Goodwin is the original company to offer River-Recovered Heart Cypress™.  The feathery grain and honey hue of Heart Cypress paneling makes it the perfect companion for Heart Pine floors.

WILD BLACK CHERRY
Quality native woods are our specialty
Our Wild Black Cherry is the best quality native cherry that has recently become available. It is an excellent choice for flooring and furniture.

WHICH GRAIN PATTERN IS BEST?
The variety of grain patterns in Heart Pine and Heart Cypress is part of the natural beauty of the wood.  Like fingerprints, no two patterns are alike.

These prized woods come in two distinct grain patterns for use in flooring:  Select and Vertical.

Select Grain is a blend of Vertical and plainsawn (or leaf) grain, characterized by cathedral arches and fingerprint swirls. Select grain has no face knots over 1-1/4", no machine defects, and no face checks, cracks or pitch pockets over 1/8" wide. Customers can order Select Clear grade (no knots) or specific lengths for a premium Available widths: Standard (2-1/2", 3-1/4" or 5-1/4", and River-Recovered™ in 7" and 9" face) or custom widths.

Vertical Grain, a pinstriped pattern the length of each board and produced from the quarter-sawing process, has growth rings no more than 45 degrees perpendicular to the face. This wood is almost completely clear of knots and is very consistent in appearance. Goodwin offers 100 percent Vertical grain in any quantity.
Available widths: Standard or custom widths up to 3-1/4" face (limited amounts of 5-1/4" on occasion).

FACT:
Heart Pine increases in value over time and is recommended for allergies. Due to its limited availability, Heart Pine costs more to make than the average hardwood flooring, but our customers tell us it is worth the price. Goodwin is committed to providing the highest quality Heart Pine.

• Exact milling tolerances for fast and easy installation
