How is Laminate Flooring Made?

There have been significant advancements in flooring manufacturing technology, with the best names in flooring manufacturers embracing new methods to produce high quality flooring with outstanding performance. Laminate flooring is made to realistically replicate real hardwood or stone tile, with quality materials which provide improved performance.  Laminate can be manufactured to offer spill proof and water resistance properties, although typically not completely waterproof like some materials such as wood plastic composite flooring (WPC).  

With advanced manufacturing methods and quality materials, however, laminate flooring can be installed in nearly any room.  

Laminate Flooring is Made to Look Like Real Wood with Less Upkeep

Laminate is available in a wide selection of real wood replicas, including Hickory, Chestnut, Elm, cherry, Acacia, Maple, Pine, Oak, Walnut and many others. If you desire the look of real hardwood or stone tile, but don’t want the expense, difficult installation, and time consuming upkeep required to prevent scratches and dents, then laminate flooring might be the best choice for you. Enjoy the stylish beauty of the real wood look with the added protection and durability of laminate flooring. 

Laminate flooring material is available in all these various styles in nearly any shade or color imaginable, including light, gray, medium and dark tones.  Choices in the finish are also available such as traditional hardwood looks, distressed wood and hand scraped, for example.  The lighter, gray tones provide and airy, open feeling while medium wood tones accentuate furnishings and home décor.  Darker tones may work well in foyers, entryways and hallways, with a classy and elegant tone.
