Products: Laminates
Laminate consists of a decorative surface which is protected by a wear-resistant
layer above it, and strengthened by a sturdy fibre backing.
Laminate flooring products can be manufactured to look like surfaces such as
granite and wood, but at a much lower cost. Laminate floorcovering is usually
more realistic than vinyl when it comes to replicating natural materials.
Padding can be placed beneath laminate flooring for extra comfort.
- Easy to install.
- Can often be laid directly over existing flooring, which saves time and money.
- When properly installed and sealed with silicone at its edges, laminates are water resistant.
- Easy maintenance.
- Superior durability.
- Sustained look and feel.
- Most laminate flooring is manufactured with a 'wear layer' which protects it against scratches, scuffs and stains.
Cleaning and maintenance of laminate floorcovering is easy!
A mop with an ammonia-based floor cleaner will remove dirt and
leave a shine. Vacuum the laminate floor before mopping if there is soil
that needs to be removed. There is no need to polish or wax laminate flooring,
and it should not be buffed or sanded as this will damage the surface.
