Product type
Laminate flooring is a multi-layer synthetic flooring product designed to mimic the appearance of natural wood. It is composed of a high-density fiberboard core, a photographic layer that replicates wood grain, and a protective wear layer that enhances durability. This type of flooring is popular for its affordability and ease of installation, often featuring a click-lock system that allows for floating installation over existing floors without the need for adhesives or nails.
| Material | High-density fiberboard (HDF) with a laminate surface |
| Thickness | 6mm to 12mm |
| Plank width | 4 inches to 8 inches |
| Plank length | 36 inches to 60 inches |
| Wear layer thickness | 0.3mm to 1.2mm |
| Water resistance | Varies by product, typically water-resistant options available |
When choosing laminate flooring, consider the thickness and wear layer, as these factors affect durability and longevity. Look for products with water-resistant features if installing in moisture-prone areas. It's also important to specify the desired aesthetic, such as wood species or finish, and check for certifications like CARB compliance for formaldehyde emissions. Quantities should be calculated based on the area to be covered, with additional material for waste and future repairs.
