Ted Todd

What Ted Todd does

Ted Todd Fine Wood Floors, founded in 1993 and privately held, designs and manufactures luxury wood flooring for residential and commercial projects. The company is headquartered in Woolston, Cheshire (United Kingdom) and operates Design Centres in London and New York, selling through a UK and Ireland approved retailer network. The product portfolio spans engineered wood (2-ply, 3-ply and 3-layer constructions), solid wood, reclaimed and antique floors, organised across the Ted Todd, Woodworks by Ted Todd, and Karta Floors sub-brands, with 320+ variations across collections including Classic Futures®, Residence®, Project, Warehouse, Create®, Crafted Textures, Specialist Woods, and Unfinished Oaks.

Core technology centres on layered engineered wood construction in which hardwood layers are bonded with alternating grain direction to reduce expansion and contraction and enable compatibility with underfloor heating. Proprietary differentiators include the Absolute Matt Lacquer® finish used exclusively in the Residence collection, and the interchangeable Create® and Classic Futures® pattern systems that allow planks, herringbone, chevron and squares to be combined at compatible dimensions. The company holds FSC, PEFC and UKTR chain-of-custody certifications on relevant collections and markets SVOC-free and low-VOC credentials alongside warranties up to 25–30 years on selected products.

Commercial model is hybrid: company-owned Design Centres in Cheshire, London and New York provide direct sales and design consultation; an approved retailer network handles supply-and-fit packages across the UK and Ireland; a dedicated commercial specification team (with its own phone lines for commercial work and a free-sample service of up to three samples per order) targets hotels, restaurants, retail, healthcare and cultural venues; and a transactional ecommerce storefront distributes samples and ancillary floor-care products. Revenue is one-time product sale at quote-based, undisclosed prices, with named enterprise customers including Fortnum & Mason, Corinthia London, AstraZeneca, The Alchemist, Regent's Crescent, Treehouse Hotel, Shakespeare North Playhouse and C Bechstein Piano Centre.
