Which is more environmentally friendly, laminate flooring or parquet

In terms of environmental performance, it must be that solid wood flooring is more environmentally friendly. I will tell you about some of the characteristics of solid wood flooring and laminate flooring.

Solid wood flooring is a floor decoration material formed by drying and processing natural wood. Also known as log flooring, it is a floor that is directly processed from solid wood. It has the texture of natural growth of wood, the smell is fragrant, the texture is thick and warm, the color is gorgeous and rich, and it can also release negative ions that are beneficial to the human body, and it is also a bad conductor of heat, which can play the role of warm in winter and cool in summer, comfortable feet, green and environmentally friendly, and safe to use.

It is an ideal material for floor decoration such as bedrooms, living rooms, and study rooms.

The disadvantage is that it is difficult to maintain the solid wood floor, and the requirements for paving are higher, and once the paving is not good, it will cause a series of problems, such as sound, etc. After the paving is done, it is necessary to wax and oil frequently, otherwise the luster of the floor surface will soon disappear.

Laminate flooring is made of sawdust (powder) + adhesive, which is no longer wood in the actual sense, and the surface is a wear-resistant layer of chloride trioxide, which is hard and second only to diamond. However, because this type of flooring uses a large amount of adhesive, the formaldehyde content is easy to exceed the standard. Because the main ingredient in the adhesive is urea-formaldehyde glue, the price of adhesives without urea-formaldehyde glue is very high, which will cause the cost of flooring to increase, so there are not many manufacturers of application.

Therefore, unqualified laminate flooring is the main culprit of excessive indoor formaldehyde content, and it is necessary to pay attention to the selection of qualified products when purchasing.

From what I said above, do you see that solid wood flooring is a more environmentally friendly floor? But it will also be more expensive, which is not acceptable to everyone.

This really can't be compared, and it's generally about price, foot feel, quality, etc.
