32 kinds of laminate flooring quality comparison!
There are currently two types of wood floors on the market: raw wood floors and composite wood floors.
There are many wood species and specifications on the wooden floor, and the hue is more selective, but the construction is more complicated. Moreover, corrosion resistance, deformation resistance and durability are not as good as composite wood floors. Composite wood flooring has the advantages of simple construction and good physical and chemical properties, but the color and pattern are uniform, and the decoration reflects personality.
There are two types of products on the floor of the log: the paint floor and the prime board. The construction of the lacquer floor is simple, but after the completion of the floor, there is no complete protection of the paint film, which will inevitably affect the service life of the floor and daily cleaning. The construction of the board is complex but the ground is smooth after the completion. In particular, the final application of floor paint can effectively prevent dust, water, etc. from seeping into the board. When buying a floor, the level difference is very large. When purchasing, you don't need to buy all the high-grade ones. You can buy them at a high or low level. During the construction, the beds, cabinets, tables, and floors under the stage can be used at lower levels, which will not affect the overall decoration effect and save the decoration costs.
Locking the floor: In general, the floor is not worn out, but is destroyed from the edge. According to the data, more than 50% of the floor damage is caused by the edges. Due to thermal expansion and contraction, after the ordinary floor is used for a period of time, the joints become larger and the moisture invades the interior of the floor for a long time, causing the floor edges to swell and rise. At the same time, the cracked floor is more likely to damage the cup, so the vicious cycle greatly shortens the life span of the floor, thus showing the importance of floor seams. For the seams, the lock floor has recently appeared on the market, and the overall buckle height is only twice that of human hair, and the possibility of curling the edges is minimized.
Perfect flooring must combine technology with design and functionality. Locking the floor, is another innovation in floor locking technology, with the following five irreplaceable advantages:
1. Improve the sturdiness of the joints and truly realize the overall movement of the floor.
2. Increased cementing strength - After the floor is used for a period of time, due to thermal expansion and contraction, the seams of the floor will become larger and the glue in the joints will crack, so that once the moisture enters the interior of the floor, the edges of the floor will rise. . This accounts for more than 50% of the causes of the floor damage. The lock design deliberately leaves a glue chamber for the glue to flow and solidify in the floor, which can accurately lock the floor in the design position, reducing the possibility of large joints and raised edges, improving the aesthetic appearance and service life of the floor.
3, more convenient to take care of - In the dry climate of Europe, the installation of the floor is not glueing habits. In China, because the weather is not only humid, but also the family has a habit of using wet cloths to mop the floor, it has become a necessary measure to protect the floor. However, most of the current European market lock floor design is only suitable for Europe, the floor does not have a plastic cavity design, now the iconic lock floor produced by the icon is designed for the Chinese family's living habits, moisture capacity is expected to increase.
4, repeated disassembly and multiple use - innovative lock floor, easy installation, a "shoot" that is seamless. When it is installed, it can be used without glue and it can be used multiple times. It can also apply a small amount of glue to protect the floor from moisture and connection. When disassembling, you can also remove the 30-degree angle on one side of the floor and you can remove it, which is especially suitable for environmentally-friendly DIY trendy people.
5, super moisture-proof, dust-proof - Borui lock floor is the world's most compact design so far, the lock height is only twice the human hair. In order to achieve accurate cutting results, the iconic manufacturer newly introduced the advanced German Torwegge laminate flooring production line that was put into production in 2001, which is superior to moisture and dust. Laminate flooring is a technical product that looks the same, in fact many technical indicators (such as wear, seams, environmental protection, etc.) are not visible to consumers with their eyes. At present, the laminate flooring market is a mixed bag. Experts remind consumers that the floor is a long-term investment, and you must choose a reputable brand name product when you purchase.
2. Since its entry into the Chinese market in 1994, laminate flooring has been favored by consumers and has become the first choice for home decoration of flooring materials. People who have used it all know that abrasion resistance and easy care are the outstanding advantages of strengthening wood floors, but at the same time, poor foot feeling and large stepping noises are also its outstanding defects. Therefore, it is necessary to give up when choosing this floor. The reporter collected data from some recent sales outlets of well-known wood flooring brands, and found that many brands had a lot of words such as “feeling good†and “silent handling†appearing on the promotional brochures, and they no longer emphasized the resistance as they once did. Grinding characteristics. Flooring manufacturers have not stagnated in recent years, and they are all developing new technology to overcome defects and improve the appearance and comfort of laminate flooring. Just like the upgrading of computers, laminate flooring is also being upgraded.
â– thick floor feel good
Ordinary laminate flooring is 8 mm thick, and now there are thick wooden floors on the market, such as the 12 mm thick "solid wood foot type" flooring currently being introduced by Dehe Family, which is 50% thicker than the original. German macro-resistant floor thickened to 16 mm, thickening 2 times. The thickening is generally a substrate portion, or other functional layer, which varies from brand to brand.
Lu Bin, deputy director of the National Quality Supervision and Inspection Center for Wood-based Panels, told reporters that laminate flooring has changed significantly in terms of specifications when it first entered the Chinese market. The floor has been thickened, the length and width have changed, and the specifications are more abundant. It was originally a long strip, which has now developed into a square shape. The length has grown from 1 meter to now has a floor of 1.4 meters in length to meet the needs of consumers.
â– Lock design increases strength
Many wood floor brands make a fuss about the floor gutters. The way they came up with is similar. In the original gutters, the teeth and troughs are made again. After the two floors are plugged in, they are completely stuck and cannot be opened.
In the macro-resistant flooring showroom, Zhang Wei, the general manager of the company, demonstrated to the reporter the splicing process of the two wooden floors. The initial floor was a simple design of a concave-convex groove, and insertion and pull-out were not too laborious. However, after the two new wooden floors with a buckle design are inserted into each other, it is impossible to pull. Zhang Wei said that ordinary two floors are not joined together with any strength, they must rely on adhesives to bond, poor quality of the adhesive will be aging over time, in addition to the impact of changes in temperature and humidity of the wood heat rise and shrink, If the overall increase or decrease will not be a problem, but the location of the furniture pressure can not be normal expansion and contraction, resulting in cracking glue, a long time the floor will be open seam. The latest lock-type design of the plug interface, although the teeth and the slot is very small, but can withstand 500 kilograms of tension.
There are already many brands on the market that have introduced this latest lock-in design. Although there are subtle differences, the principle is the same. Yan Peijin, general manager of "European Code" flooring, told reporters that the lock-type design is currently the world's most advanced processing technology. This process completely solves the problem of loosening of floorboards and joints into the water after long-term troubled consumers. Because the floor of the old process of processing concave and convex groove wide and loose, easy to install and tight enough. Because it mainly depends on the adhesive glue, and the stepping will cause the glue to peel off. After the thermal expansion and contraction, a gap will be formed. If the water enters, it will easily deform the floor block and shorten the service life of the floor. The "European Code" floor can be highly sealed. It must be used only when a special tensioner with a force of 50 kg is used in the installation. This minimizes the vibration between the board and the board. The floor is completely closed after the special glue is used. Seamless.
â– floor noise reduction
Mr. Lu Bin said that while the hardwood floor has the outstanding advantage of wear-resistance, stepping on the noise is also a defect that affects its reputation. Now all manufacturers are thinking of ways, and some brands have begun to study the use of special soft materials combined with the floor to solve this problem.
According to a survey conducted by the reporter, wood flooring brands have introduced floor mats under the floor to achieve the purpose of noise reduction, but the price is slightly more expensive. The “European†floor uses high-molecular noise-reducing materials used on the VOLVO car chassis. They adhere the material to the back of the floor and reduce noise by reducing the amplitude of the vibration generated by the floor. The experimental results show that noise reduction is more than 12 decibels more than normal laminate flooring in the room, and the noise on the ground floor is reduced by more than 20 decibels.
â– Embossed surface in order to slip
Recently, many brands of wood flooring have introduced floor surface bumps. Their role is to prevent slippage. In addition, the visual effect of relief is more three-dimensional. Mr. Lu Bin told reporters that wood floors are marching into the kitchens and toilets. Of course, skid prevention and moisture protection are the first problems to be solved. Surface relief lines can achieve this goal, and moisture protection must be specially treated around the floor.
â– Color is rich in solid wood
The color of the laminate flooring originally entered the market only when it copied the ten kinds of popular solid wood grain. At the time, the laminate flooring could be patterned by different layers of the decorative layer under the wear layer. It was also a solid wood floor. Compared to outstanding advantages. Various brands have worked hard to make their flooring more personalized. The comfort floor from Denmark launched this year's "imitation tile" laminate flooring, the appearance of touch and advanced marble tiles are inseparable. At present, there are as many as dozens of floor designs for some brands. Classical, dignified, and bright living wood floors are much larger than solid wood floors.
The reporter learned from the interview that the upgrading of the laminate flooring is not like the upgrading of the computer. There is always a lot of room for improvement. The technical improvement of the laminate flooring is often slow. Subtle changes will not cause much concern, and you think, Others also think of it and will not be too prominent. But stagnation will gradually be eliminated by the market. In addition, the upgrading of laminate flooring will increase the production cost of flooring to a certain extent. Therefore, some of the floorings introduced in the above-mentioned new technology are classified as high-end products in each brand, and the price is naturally higher than that of natural products. Ordinary floor is more expensive, so the competition of each brand may become the same technical process, which is cheaper than others.
