Laminate Flooring Contents: Laminate flooring was invented in 1977 by the Swedish company Perstorp. This company came up with the idea of ??obtaining floor coverings by exposing waste wood pieces to high pressure, heat and binding chemicals, and laminate flooring continues to be produced with the same system since then. Basically, Laminate Flooring consists of 3 layers. These are as follows;
The wear layer is the thin surface layer impregnated with melamine. This top surface layer is a clear plastic layer that is resistant to dogs, chairs, high heels and other common harmful elements.
Even when viewed in close-up, laminate flooring can look realistic. This is due to the photographic quality image of real wood under the laminate's wear layer. It is also called the decoration layer.
The Base Layer is called HDF. This core layer, which is made of high-density fiber board (HDF), is the water-resistant main carrier layer. HDF is obtained by compressing wood fiber together with adhesive and resin.
Laminate flooring is inexpensive compared to laminate flooring and most stone flooring. In price, it is comparable to laminate, luxury vinyl flooring and some ceramic or porcelain tiles.
