Located in Hambach in the heart of the forest region of eastern France, Chêne de l’Est was founded in 1960 by Joseph Bach. A local carpenter, Joseph started working from a small workshop originally built by his grandfather, and from these humble beginnings Chêne de l’Est has grown to be one of the premier hardwood flooring companies in France.Chene de l’est started as a family company and remains family owned and operated today.

Joseph Bach’s four children, Raymond, Gabriel, Jean-Michel and Brigitte Eva form the management team with many other Bach family members also involved in different aspects of the operation.
All share Joseph’s passion for beautiful, high quality handcrafted French Oak floors.

Chêne de l’Est is proud to offer an extensive range of both solid and engineered hardwood floors with a style and finish to enhance every décor.
Our expertise and superior craftsmanship allow us to produce hardwood floors with unique textures and colors, all available with either oil or urethane finish. There are now over 200 different styles to choose from within our collections that included Smoked, Antique, Loft, Island, Sawn-Face and Metallic.
