Laminate flooring also has authenticity?

   What?laminate flooring also has authenticity?

Nowaday, a fake laminate flooring on the market that looks like a real laminate flooring. actually the fake laminate flooring is melamine paint impregnated decorative board. It is only suitable for wallboard and furniture materials, it should not be used for flooring. For ordinary consumers without professional knowledge, how do we distinguish between real and fake?

First of all, from the appearance,the surface is embossed for real product,also if the surface is slightly smooth which its fake wood floor ,Normal laminate flooring should be based on high-density fiberboardthe , international standard thickness is 8mm, and the fake is a melamine decorative board without wear layer.

laminate wood flooring

Secondly, from the comparison of the index parameters, the real laminate flooring wear resistance IP is much larger than 4000 rpm, while the fake is only 50 rpm to 500 rpm, and the maximum is 4,000 rpm. But now there are many products on the market with high IP values. Most IP values are greater than or equal to 15,000 rpm, and some are as high as 20,000 rpm. It is impossible to doubt the authenticity of these data. The wear resistance value is different according to the test method, and can be divided into value (IP), final value (FP), average value (AT), etc. FP is often larger than IP by 2000 rpm to 3000 rpm, and AT value is IP value and FP. average of. In addition, artificial hand sanding paper is much more than 50 times true laminate flooring, and less than 50 times is definitely fake. The true floor density HDF is equal to 0.82, and the fake floor density HDF is between 0.6 and 0.8. The water expansion rate is really small, and the installation gap
is small.

In the end, pls pay more attention to the brand awareness , which is usually well known. Whether the manufacturer’s normative, trademark, manufacturer, certificate, and quality inspection report of the authoritative department are also important factors for checking the authenticity. No registered trademark, manufacturer, certificate, or fake trademark or fake certificate can never be used and purchased

Careful Wood Flooring Formaldehyde Excess Standard

In the market, most merchants claim that their floor can be used for floor heating systems. But in reality, 55% of these floors cannot be used in heating systems.

heating floor

1. The thickness of the floor is 12mm-16mm

The national ground radiant heating technology requires that the design temperature of the ground is 24-28 ° C, and the floor thickness of 12 mm – 16 mm is suitable for warm use. If the floor is too thick, the temperature difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the floor will be too large, resulting in inconsistent expansion and deformation of the floor.

2. Formaldehyde must be much lower than ordinary floor

The national floor standard stipulates that the formaldehyde content of ordinary floor is less than or equal to 1.5mg/L. However, the higher the temperature, the greater the amount of formaldehyde released. Therefore, the heating floor should be formaldehyde-free to ensure the health of consumers. But it is not impossible at all, caused formaldehyde in natural wood logs, but their content is very small and will not cause harm to the human body.

3. The thicker paint is good for the wood floor surface.

The stretch of the floor finish paint is different from the stretch of the wood, and the paint is less flexible than the wood. In the case of high temperatures, the paint surface may crack and fall off. Therefore, the adhesion of the paint is crucial. The thicker the paint, and the worse the adhesion will be.

Wood flooring without color difference, dare you buy it Part 2

Is there any quality problem with the floor color aberration?

In general, the color aberration of the laminate floor itself is rare, and the color difference of the solid wood floor is inevitable. Because the color aberration of solid wood flooring is determined by natural properties.

Wood is a porous material. Different parts of the material are different in density. The degree of light absorption and paint is different in each part, so sometimes the color of the two sides of the same floor will appear different texture.

Nowadays ,no matter whether it is a national standard or an enterprise production standard, color aberration is not used as a standard for testing quality.The state has no clear regulations on the “color aberration
” of solid wood flooring. Strictly speaking, there are no two identical solid wood floors, and the color aberration of solid wood flooring is not a quality problem.

1:You can try to install the floor with a large difference in color on the bottom of the sofa, bed and other places that are not easy to be noticed in somewhere

2:The method of blending the color aberration: cross-installing the deeper and shallower floors in the same color, so that the effect of the installation is uniform, beautiful and natural.

In fact, there are no two identical floors in the world

Just as there are no two identical tree leaves.

Due to the nature of hardwood flooring,

A slight color difference between each of the floors is normal.

In here, I would like to explain about the hardwood floor color aberration for you!

Why is there a color aberration in solid wood flooring?

During the growth process of trees, due to different environments, different shades of sun, high and low density, the same species in different regions which also had little bit difference. Even the trees in the same forest may have different colors and Texture.

The called “color aberration” means that the color of the same piece of wood is not the same, the difference is large, but in the whole piece of ground after laying, the color is dark or light, which is a little in the same color wood. Differences, and this “must exist” and “normally exist.”

1.color aberration between tree roots and treetops

Some solid wood floors are made of tree roots, some are made of treetops, and the color would be in dark in tree roost in someplace, and the color near the treetops is more lighter.

2.color aberration between tree bark and pith

The place that is close to tree bark in real wood floor is shallow color weight is light; Near the center of the pith it is deep color and heavy

3.processing methods lead to color aberration

The method of cutting the floor wood is different. Some are cut by the diameter, some are cut by the string. After the processing, the texture of the floor is inconsistent. The two floors of different wood grain will inevitably have a color difference.

4.color aberration caused by installation

Because there is a color aberration in the floor itself, if the installation master does not observe and compare the color of the floor during the installation process, it will be obvious to put the two floors with large color difference together.

5.color aberration caused by the environment

The color of the floor is close to the window is generally brighter than the color of the floor in the shadow. This is mainly due to the influence of sunlight on the visual floor.

Oak: The mountained wood grain is natural and beautiful, strong hardness,the grade is high, the quality of the oak floor in the market is uneven, the price is high, and it needs to be carefully distinguished.

Premier UV finished white oak floors

Black walnut: One of the nobles in the wood species, with a light dark brown and purple color, the color is calm and generous. It has good stability, is not easy to cracked , has moderate bending strength and strong corrosion resistance. It is one of the most durable woods. It is hot and expensive in high-end wood.

Teak wood : The texture is exquisite and beautiful, the color is delicate, strong hardness, the texture is excellent, and it has good weather resistance. The shrinkage rate is small, and it is not easy to leaking, deform and crack. It belongs to high-grade wood, if the teak wood floor keeps over used,which the value of floor would be getting higher as well.

Some people believes that “the thickness more thicker is the better”,

actually it is not real, thermal conductivity,

heat dissipation will be affected, this is a waste of energy, so the thickness is moderated.

In the domestic floor heating industry survey, more than 79% of floor heating floor products thickness is 18mm, of which nearly half of the floor heating floor thickness is 18mm, and floor heating floor products with 18mm thickness is getting less than ever
, and a small number of styles do not indicate thickness, so choose thickness. Floor heating floors below 18mm are relatively safe.

For the length and width, it is recommended not to choose floor heating floors that are too wide or too long, because the larger the size of the floor heating floor, the larger the gap created in the geothermal environment.

How to choose floor heating floor Part 1

I.    Solid wood flooring(burma teak is the best floor heating floor) is generally thicker than engineered wood flooring, the plank mostly thickness is 18mm, and the foot feels better. The environmental protection performance is also better, which the home comfort is extremely high,the price is higher than the engineered wood flooring, and the specific height depends on the tree species, brand, craft and other species of the solid wood floor.

Although the prices of wood floor under heating is high,which it looks beautiful and comfortable,but it also more healthier and more environmental friendly than engineered wood floor,and the ability of keeping warm is much stronger,Its a worh way to choice the solid wood floor,which it has many great advantages at all.

II.  And the engineered wood floor still keeps the great appearance of solid wood floor,However,the engineered wood floor must to be used the floor glue,which it contains the high formaldehyde and the floor density is not in balance as well, In return,The under heating floor‘s temperature is getting slowly and have good heat dissipation,which it measn its also is a shortback for this floor,So its not an ideal option for the under floor heating

III.   The laminate floor had much more color design option, and it has higher wear resistance, but at the same time, the stand fleeing of bare foot is slightly lower than solid wood floor. Under the condition of floor heating, other harmful volatile substances such as formaldehyde inside the floor will be elevated.

High density material lowes laminate flooring

The E0 grade laminate flooring is much better than the E1 grade of laminate flooring(according to the Chinese environmental protection standards),so please kindly pay attention to look at the mage brands when you are purchasing the floor, and try to select the standard grade of environmental protectionE0.

The floor heating in the market is characterized by excellent performances such as Taun, Merbau, Oak and Iroko,which the materials with Medium prices as well ,there are also have high class wood species,such as:Black Walnut,Burma Teak,wod speices,But for the average consumer, the necessity of choosing high-grade materials is not a great choice.

Next time, let’s discuss the advantages of the above wood species!!!!!
