Laminate resists & repels water
You have a choice between standard and waterproof laminate flooring brands regardless of the look you prefer. Water needs to be cleaned up immediately if you install standard flooring. Because of its design, water will pool on the surface rather than soaking into the flooring. So clean-up is easy, and the planks or tiles are not damaged. Waterproof laminate repels water for the amount of time that is specified in the manufacturer's instructions. Usually, water can remain on the floor for about one day before damage may occur.
Laminate flooring composition
Laminate planks and tiles have a backing, core, image, and wear layer molded together during the lamination process. The fiberboard core layer is made of wood byproducts, and therefore, the flooring is warm underfoot even if it is cold outside. The high-tech wood, stone, or ceramic image is protected from staining and scratching by the transparent wear layer. This built-in aluminum oxide coating is the hardest finish produced for the final coating on floors. Textures, such as a hand-scraped wood look, add authenticity.
Laminate AC Rating
When comparing laminate planks or tiles, look for the abrasion coefficient rating to judge the durability of each product. An independent entity assigns the AC rating after the product undergoes many tests. Laminate flooring is subjected to all types of daily wear and tear typical of the average household. It's tested for its resistance to heat, impact, moisture, moving furniture, foot traffic, and more. If the flooring fails a test, it is not given an AC rating. AC3 is appropriate for any residential space, while AC4 - AC6 is suitable for commercial applications.
