Advantages and disadvantages of laminate flooring

At present, the solid wood composite flooring sold in the market can be divided into two categories: three-layer solid wood composite flooring and multi-layer solid wood composite flooring. The advantages and disadvantages can be distinguished according to the following aspects:

(1) Specification thickness: The thickness of the surface layer of the solid wood composite floor determines its service life. The thicker the surface layer, the longer the wear resistance time. The surface thickness of the European solid wood composite floor is generally required to be more than 4 mm.

(2) Material: The solid wood composite floor is divided into three layers: table, core and bottom. The surface layer is a wear-resistant layer, and the varieties with hard texture and beautiful texture should be selected. The core layer and the bottom layer are balanced buffer layers and should be soft and elastic. The key point is that the types of the core layer and bottom layer should be the same, otherwise it is difficult to ensure the stability of the structure of the floor.

(3) Processing accuracy: The biggest advantage of solid wood composite flooring is its high processing accuracy. Therefore, when choosing solid wood composite flooring, you must carefully observe whether the floor is tightly spliced, and there should be no obvious height difference between two adjacent boards.

(4) Surface paint film: For high-end solid wood composite flooring, high-grade UV matt paint should be used. This paint is cured by ultraviolet light, and its wear resistance is very good. Generally, household use does not need to be waxed for maintenance. No need to paint every year. Another key indicator is the matt degree. The brightness of the floor should first be soft, elegant, and non-stimulating to the vision.

(5) Adhesives: As we all know, solid wood composite flooring is made of three or more layers of wood by applying glue and hot pressing. Adhesives are generally made of urea-formaldehyde resin, so a certain amount of formaldehyde is bound to exist. In the production process, high-grade environmental protection Solid wood composite flooring must use low-formaldehyde rubber materials to ensure the product's environmental protection indicators.
