Eco-friendly laminate
Laminate flooring is significantly less expensive than other
floor types, like stone, hardwood, or tile flooring. If
budget is a primary concern, then this type of flooring is
likely the answer.
The reason that laminate costs a
lot less is because it is manufactured out of recycled
materials. Raw materials are expensive. But when
raw materials are degraded past the point of usefulness, the
can be processed into products like laminate.
That
being said, there are a lot of different grades of
laminate. Some are infused with low quality plastics and
waste. Our laminates are made inside our factory,
exclusively from recycled hardwood flooring. That means
that you get the best laminate flooring possible.
Many natural materials have textures and patterns that are
irregular in nature. That is really what makes them so
beautiful. But the problem is that this natural
variation also introduces crevices and holes into flooring
made from these materials.
These spaces will over
time fill with organic matter. Hair and skin cells from
the people and possibly animals living in the home / office is
the primary source of this organic matter and it is
unavoidable.
Over time that organic material will
start to decompose and in the process allergens will be
produced. People with congested elimination organs
already have or will over time develop allergies to this
matter. But laminate is perfectly smooth and so reduced
the accumulation of this matter.
Hardwood floors if they are properly sealed and maintained
regularly will not be impacted by moisture in the air and
small scale spills. This is a big if.
In our
experience on the most professional management companies put
in the kind of care needed to maintain the seals on hardwood
floors for this to be a reality. If water gets in ...
the hardwood starts to rot and that is the beginning of the
end.
Laminate can be specifically designed to be
moisture repellant. You just don't need to worry. And in areas
where moisture is expected, like bathrooms and kitchens it can
be a really good cost effective alternative to stone or
tile.
We've already talked about how most laminate is made from
recycled materials. That means you are reusing existing
raw materials and that is a good thing from an environmental
sustainability standpoint.
Now the question is
though, is the environment this laminate flooring is creating
in the property healthy for the people living in it? We
say this because you would be surprised by the kinds of
byproducts added to laminate flooring. Many of these are
highly toxic and are consistently released from the flooring
every day.
We use only premium hardwood as our
based recycled material and non-toxic filler to ensure that
our laminate floor is safe for your health.
OUR TOP LAMINATE PRODUCTS
Our best selling laminate class is the waterproof
laminate. Water resistant laminate features
water-resistant core materials and advanced sealing methods
to prevent water from getting into the core.
With
waterproof laminate we take this to the next level. We
make sure that the entire laminate plank is impervious to
water. We have different types of planks that are
infused with a plastic or resin core. They are
impervious to water damage.
Unlike
carpet or
hardwood, planks are perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, or any
other location where water damage is a concern.
AC stands for Abrasion Class. The higher the AC
rating the more durable the laminate. We sell AC5
laminate and this is the
highest AC class laminate.
Laminate in general has a durability problem
compared to other flooring materials. As a recycled
product it is simply software and more likely to wear
out. But our AC5 laminate product has a lot of added
durability.
Regular laminate that
typically has an AC3 or AC4 rating and is only acceptable to
use in residential applications. Our AC5 laminate is
perfect for use in commercial applications.
Another one of our best-sellers is wide plank
laminate. It can be very challenging to make wide
planks out of
hardwood, stone, or tile. But just about any manufacturer can
press material into the desired shape.
But will
these planks be strong enough for the required
application? Laminate is already a weaker material
compared to other flooring types so this is a real
concern.
Fortunately, we have a
patented process in place that makes our wide plank laminate
3x strong than even the standard thin plank laminate used in
the industry.
