What is laminate flooring?
For decades, laminate has been gaining popularity as an alternative to traditional solid hardwood or tile floors. New advances in manufacturing technology have propelled this flooring category from obscurity into the mainstream of interior design. Designed to look great for years with minimal maintenance, laminate is perfect for families with busy lifestyles.
Laminate floors are comprised of 4 main layers, bonded together:
- A backing for balance and stability
- A moisture-resistant core
- A wear-resistant decorative surface that takes on the look of hardwood grain or tile
- A clear, stain-resistant coating
