Correctly Identify Floor Life And Cost Performance

1. Laminate flooring
Manufacturers generally advertise that the quality is guaranteed for 10 to 15 years, and I have even seen lifelong guarantees. In fact, the life of laminate flooring is mainly determined by the quality of the surface wear-resistant layer and the quality of the base material. If a better wear-resistant layer is selected, the water resistance of the base material is also better, and there is no problem in family use for more than 20 years. The price is quite confusing, ranging from a minimum of more than ten yuan to more than five hundred yuan. Mainly environmental protection performance, wear resistance, flame retardant performance, water expansion performance, and price difference. In addition to the above-mentioned high performance, some high-end laminate flooring has high performance in terms of color and surface treatment, such as synchronous grain, hand grain, Pearl finishes, specular highlights, and artistic finishes can also make a difference in price.
2. Multi-layer parquet
The environmental protection performance of multi-layer solid wood is similar to that of laminate flooring. It belongs to the same grade in Europe. The difference is that it feels more like solid wood flooring. However, because it is made of plywood and veneer, the environmental protection is more difficult to control. As for the service life, it is different among all types of flooring. Among them, he is the shortest, some even less than 1 year, it all depends on the surface paint, once the paint surface is damaged, you can dismantle the floor, there is no repair, there are multi-layer solid wood with a surface layer of about 2mm on the market, claiming It can be polished N times, but because it is peeled or sliced, it is easy to crack once polished, so give up this idea. The price of multi-layer solid wood composite is generally between 100 and 130 yuan, and there may be cheaper ones. Imported multi-layer solid wood is a little more expensive, and most of them are Japanese products. Japan's resources are too poor, and its environmental protection concept is relatively good. The surface layer of the floor is all 0.6mm, and Japanese labor is expensive, so the price of the floor is naturally higher.
