What is laminate?

How is laminate constructed?

Layer1: Overlay

The top layer of a laminate floorboard forms a usable layer (overlay), which is particularly hard-wearing. This consists of a cellulose treated with synthetic resin.

Layer2: Decor

This is followed by a decor layer. The printed paper gives the laminate flooring its high-quality look. In this case, the laminate mimics a floor in the natural country house plank look.

Layer 3: Carrier plate

The largest part of the laminate plank is the carrier board. The high-density wood fiberboard usually consists of 90 percent wood fibers. It provides the necessary stability and strength of the panels.

Layer 4: Countermove

The counterdraw forms the final layer on the back of the carrier board. It is responsible for the longevity of the mold and moisture barrier.

Country house floorboard know-how: the perfect substrate and care tips

Subfloor

  • In order for you to enjoy your floor for many years and to avoid unsightly deformations, a well-prepared subfloor is the be-all and end-all! The floor, on which the laminate planks in country house plank look will later be laid, should above all be even and permanently dry. Once these conditions are met, carefully clean the surface. Once you have assured yourself that there is no residual moisture, you can lay the floorboards with a clear conscience according to the specifications of the installation instructions.

Care and cleaning

Since most plank floors are treated with oil, the laminate flooring scores with a dirt-repellent matte surface. Generally speaking:

  • Remove coarse dirt with a broom or vacuum cleaner. To avoid scratches, sand grains and small stones should be removed immediately.
  • Depending on the use of the floor, it is advisable to wipe the floorboards weekly/monthly damp.
