The 5 advantages offered by laminate floors

An economical and practical substitute for wooden floors

Laminate flooring not only has a similar aesthetic to wooden flooring thanks to high-definition printers, which achieve a realistic finish, but it is also cheaper and more easy to install, since glues and glues are not necessary, it just has to be superimposed with a simple click system. For this reason, it is not surprising that it has become so popular in recent times.

It also has a great capacity to resist wear and abrasion thanks to the protection that manufacturers apply to its surface. Thus, the laminate floor is capable of withstanding scratches produced by shoes and the furniture itself in the event that these are moved through the different rooms of the home.

Likewise, this type of floor is resistant to moisture, so it can be installed in rooms such as the kitchen and bathroom. The reason is found in paraffin, the material that laminate flooring is made of. However, some models also include edge protection, which not only serves to cushion the damage that the corners can receive.

And as if all this were not enough, laminate flooring requires little maintenance, that is, it is not necessary to stab or apply wax. It is enough to resort to a vacuum cleaner for dust and a mop for the most resistant stains. Therefore, this type of flooring is synonymous with comfort in different ways.

Undeformable

All of the above characteristics mean that laminate flooring remains stable despite suffering external aggressions such as humidity and the weight of certain objects.

This is because this kind of floor is made with the so-called high-density board (HDF), which is characterized by being made of pressed wood.

This characteristic reduces the possibilities of expansion and therefore deformation, one of its main advantages compared to other types of flooring.

Durability guarantee

Since laminate flooring adapts to different conditions, it also offers a greater guarantee of durability and therefore savings, since it is not necessary to invest in changing the ground every so often.

Style compatibility

High-definition printers have made laminate flooring not only faithfully reproduce the appearance of wood, but can imitate any other material, be it stone, cement, steel…

In this way, you can achieve different environments for the home and accordingly adapt the style of decoration.

Other additional advantages 

It should be noted that it is a hypoallergenic, antibacterial and ecological product, that is, it does not accumulate dust or bacteria from microorganisms, and is also respectful of the environment in terms of its manufacture. Therefore, it is suitable for all kinds of homes.
