In recent years, laminate flooring has rapidly occupied the ground paving material market with its excellent performance of multiple functions such as high hardness, good wear resistance, convenient paving, and high cost performance. According to statistics, from 1995 to 2001, the annual total volume of my country's laminate flooring market has jumped from several million square meters per year to more than 100 million square meters. In 2020, the official authoritative release: The national floor scale market will reach 903 million square meters.
Today, when global environmental problems are becoming more and more serious, as the global population continues to grow, human needs for fuel, food and land resources are also increasing, resulting in increasingly serious deforestation.
Timber resources will be restricted to a certain extent. In particular, precious tree species will be subject to stricter management. The development of solid wood flooring will be restricted by the reduction in the source of raw materials. Floor awareness continues to increase, and the market share of laminate flooring will also further increase.
In addition, compared with high-grade stone, laminate flooring is cheaper, easier to match, and lighter in weight. Both in terms of foot feel and visual effects, it is more comfortable and warm, simple in construction, and easy to clean. Unlike some stone, there is radiation trouble.
Compared with carpets, laminate flooring is cleaner. It is much better than carpets in terms of daily cleaning, durability, anti-static, flame retardant, and mildew. Especially in indoor public places, it has absolute advantages. Compared with solid wood flooring, laminated wood flooring is less susceptible to deformation and easy to maintain than solid wood. There are many varieties of patterns and tight structures. The biggest advantage is that the laminate floor is wear-resistant, impact-resistant and fire-resistant.
Therefore, laminate flooring is a cost-effective floor decoration material in engineering decoration, and it is also used more and more widely.
Flooring is an indispensable material in engineering decoration, but many people may not be very familiar with engineering flooring. In general, the application of laminate flooring in engineering decoration is relatively wide. There are some differences between engineered flooring and household flooring in terms of material density, wear resistance, and size. So how to buy laminate flooring for engineering use?
1. Try to choose well-known brands. Well-known brands can guarantee product quality and after-sales service, as well as guarantee after purchase.
2. Look at the degree of environmental protection. Generally, the content of formaldehyde in laminate flooring is not higher than 9mg/10g, that is, the environmental protection level must reach E1. You can check the test report of the merchant here.
3. Looking at the base material, the quality of the base material is affected by many factors, such as the match of tree species, the type of adhesive, and the density of the base material.
4. Look at the wear-resistant revolutions. Generally, people come in and out in public places every day, so try to choose a floor with wear-resistant revolutions greater than 9000 revolutions of commercial standards.
5. Look at the degree of waterproofing of the floor, try to choose a floor that has been waterproofed. After sealing wax and waterproof treatment, the floor formaldehyde is not easy to seep out, which improves the environmental protection and service life of the floor.
6. Look at the thickness of the floor. Generally, the thickness of 8mm, 10mm, 12mm laminate flooring on the market is the majority, and the higher the thickness, the stronger and more durable.
7. Look at the after-sales service, whether there is warranty, whether it is sold by the factory
8. Look at the packaging. If it is a domestic product, the product information and manufacturer are usually marked in detail on the packaging. If it is an imported floor, pay attention to whether there is a Chinese label and a customs inspection certificate.
9. Looking at the installation service, as the saying goes, three-point floor and seven-point installation, don't think that floor installation is a very simple thing. This is a technical job. Poor installation can easily cause a series of after-sales problems such as floor arching, cracks, and loose noise.
The floor is soaked in water, this phenomenon is not common, but it is a thorny floor problem for consumers. So, what should I do if I encounter a water-soaked floor? Here are four solutions for the water-soaked floor. I hope it helps.
Solution 1: Pry up the wooden floor and put it in the shade in the shape of a "well"
Applicable disease: floor that was pried up after soaking in water
Treatment plan: For water-soaked floors, it is important to dry the floor in the shade while keeping the floor as stable as possible. After drying the surface water of the floor, place it in a "well" shape, and use the weight generated by the overlap to prevent deformation. When placing the floor, pay attention to the reverse side of the floor to prevent the surface from being caused by rapid drying. Dry and crack, and be careful not to expose it in the sun. It should be placed in a ventilated place to dry in the shade. Generally, it can be used again for solid wood and multilayer solid wood of better quality. In addition, in the event of water leakage, the floor after-sales service should be notified as soon as possible, and the staff will provide solutions to the owner based on the floor's own situation.
Option 2: Remove the skirting
Applicable disease: Laminate floor soaking in water
Treatment plan: Regardless of whether it is a large area of water or a small area of water, it is not recommended to pry the laminate floor to dry, as it will easily cause damage to the laminate floor, which may cause serious consequences that it cannot be used again. Quickly drain the surface water of the floor, and then remove the skirting line of the floor, exposing the expansion joints, allowing the expansion joints to dissipate the water vapor, but depending on the amount of water, it usually takes about seven to fifteen days to dry, which is better for quality Or products that have not been immersed for a long time can recover on their own. If they cannot recover after fifteen days, you should consider replacing them.
Option 3: Leaking on one side, pry up ventilation on both sides
Adapt to the disease: add keel, small area soaked solid wood floor
Treatment plan: If a small area of water is found in time, you can clean the ground, pry up the board, dry the wet floor and reinstall it; Pry up the opposite board in the direction of the keel arrangement to let the internal circulation air take away the moisture. If you are not sure of the amount of water inflow, pry up the boards one by one according to the flow direction of the water in order to check the moisture condition, so as to be foolproof.
Option 4: Use a high-power vacuum cleaner to suck
Adapt to the disease: direct laying method, solid wood floor with a small area of water ingress
Treatment plan: If water ingress is discovered in a very short time, a high-power vacuum cleaner can be used to suck out the water vapor. However, if a large area of water enters the floor, it is necessary to pry up all the floor, and dry it in the shade according to the second scheme. At the same time, if the indoor humidity is high, a dehumidifier can be installed indoors if possible, and the indoor humidity can be drained in a short time. However, this kind of operation plan requires floor dry recognition technology.
