We have customers come into the store all the time wanting to know exactly what laminate wood flooring is & how it differs from hardwood flooring. In this blog post, I’ll answer those questions and explain the benefits and drawbacks of laminate wood. Despite its name laminate wood flooring or laminate floors isn’t wood it just does a really good job of looking like wood rather it’s a synthetic flooring product that fuses several different materials under high pressure known as lamination.
LAMINATE WOOD FLOOR PLANK IS MADE UP OF 4 LAYERS
1: Wear Layer
– A top anti-resistance wear layer that protects the surface from scratches. A high resistant Wood Floor will have a rating of AC4 to AC5 (For reference check out our AC4 Class Grade Floors by AGT PARKE)
2: Decorative Layer
– Printed layer that mimics the look of hardwood floors.
3: Core Board
– The core board is the High-Density Fiberboard made our of Wood Fibers. The water-resistance of your flooring depends on the quality of the HDF Board used to manufacture Laminate Wood Floors.
