The Value of New Laminate Flooring Technology
Laminate has come a long way since the 90’s! With new advancements in manufacturing technology, laminate is more water-resistant than ever! In short, many laminate options on the market have water warranties as long as 300 hours of still water. In addition, laminate is an excellent alternative to hardwood and even LVP because of its ability to contour to a subfloor better. This is because of the composition of the core of laminate products.
Furthermore, laminate typically comes in a thicker profile, around 10mm thick, and up to 12mm without padding. The locking profiles are more durable and less likely to crumble or separate over time. In addition, laminate is more dent-resistant than most LVPs and hardwood flooring options; it also has a higher scratch-resistant rating!
Laminate flooring often calls for acclimation before installation because of the core fibers. Typically, this is between 48-72 hours, depending on the manufacturer’s instructions.

What is Laminate Flooring?
Laminate is an affordable alternative to hardwood flooring. It also comes in various colors, styles, lengths, and widths. Laminate is a popular alternative to hardwood because it is water-resistant, which makes for easy cleanups and maintenance. The overall thickness of a laminate floor is thicker than LVP on the market, allowing for more realistic wood visuals such as hand scraping, chatter marks, and realistic graining.
Most retailers offer warranties for your materials. Be sure to check with the manufacturers or customer service representatives. Other Laminate Flooring Info

History of Laminate Flooring
Laminate flooring (floating wood tile) is a multi-layer synthetic flooring product fused with a lamination process. Laminate flooring looks wood (or sometimes stone) with a photographic applique layer under a clear protective layer. The inner core layer is usually composed of melamine resin and fiberboard materials.
Laminate flooring has grown significantly in popularity, perhaps because it is installed and maintained over more traditional surfaces such as hardwood flooring. It may also have the advantages of costing less and requiring less skill to install than alternative flooring materials. It is durable, hygienic (several brands contain an antimicrobial finish), and easy to maintain.
