Laminate flooring shouldn't be mystified with engineered wood flooring. Both are made of layers of material bonded or laminated together for strength. Laminate floors use more than a few materials such as resin, wood fiber and Kraft paper (materials differ by manufacturer) compressed under pressure to generate the final product. The flooring is made into planks.
The surface of a laminate plank is in fact an image, printed from film onto a thin decorative layer, which is then treated with a wear layer. The high resolution of the film allows a tremendously genuine appearance. A variety of finishes are available from wood grain to color.

Laminate floors are floating floors with sense that floor is attached to the subfloor. Laminate flooring can be installed on all grade levels. For the reason that it is durable and easy to clean, it is a perfect floor for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and any room that has a lot of traffic. With appropriate preparation, installation is possible over concrete, vinyl, tile and even some carpet.
