1. Strong wear resistance
Laminate flooring(LF) is an extremely durable due to its top surface, abrasion resistant layer. The contents of abrasion resistant layer include much AL2O3 which is very hard. It is even suitable for some high traffic places such as supermarket and gymnasium.

2. Strong moisture resistance
LF is strong moisture resistant. The bottom layer of it is moisture resistant layer. And green core is stronger moisture resistant than brown core because some waterproof particle is added in green core.

3. Strong stain resistance
LF provides better stain resistance compared with HF and BF because the first layer is strong stain resistant. It is very hard for stain to penetrate the surface of LF.

4. Strong fade resistance
Unlike hardwood floring(HF) and bamboo flooring(BF), the colors of laminate flooring are on the second layer so it avoids direct sun light. What's more, the special treat of the design layer improves the fade resistance.

5. Ease installation
You even can install LF yourself with some special tools and installation instructions .

6. Easy maintenance
All the tools that you need to maintain LF with are rag and cleaner. In case of damage, you can take apart the broken plank and replace it with new one.

7. Wide range of colors
The range of colors of LF are too much more than that of BF and HF. All the designs from bamboo, hardwood, marble, granite, marble, ceramic tile and carpet are available for laminate flooring. Now some carton designs are available for LF.



8. Cheap
LF is much cheaper than HF and BF. The prices of HF and BF are at least 1 time higher than that of LF.
