This flooring type is typically constructed with four layers. At the core is High-Density Fibreboard, which lends it stability and strength. A balancing paper sits at the base, and on top sits a decorative layer – usually emulating natural materials like wood. The product is then laminated, which seals the product and protects it.
There are a number of attractive benefits that laminate flooring offers over natural wood products. Firstly, the fact they’re far better at dealing with moisture and spillages, due to their laminate surface. This makes them an option for kitchens and bathrooms – areas of the home natural wood is not particularly well suited to. Secondly, the maintenance involved in laminate flooring is minimal – they don’t require re-treating, just keeping clean via regular wipe downs etc. Traits they share with hardwood? An impressive durability and everyday functionality, as well as the natural aesthetic.
