The non-slip and soft characteristics are suitable for families with elderly children, and can also play a role in regulating humidity.

In addition, many problems of wood flooring are caused by installation, and poor construction will waste good materials.

The use of floor heating of the family, in the opening and closing to gradually raise and lower the temperature, to avoid the temperature difference is too large too fast to cause the floor to crack.

When choosing to choose close to the natural color of solid wood flooring will be more insurance. Pay attention to various defects such as insect eyes, decay, color difference and missing edges. The possibility of cracking and bursting is low, and it will be basically no problem for decades.

In daily use, furniture cannot be dragged on the floor. If you accidentally drop heavy objects, the floor will be smashed into a small pit.

There is a special mop for wood floors. After mopping the floor, pour wax oil on the mop and drag it 1 times. Waxing once a month, or not waxing at all does not affect the use. When using floor heating, occasionally wet with a wet mop.

Solid wood composite floor is formed by laminating plates of different tree species horizontally and vertically, and the surface layer is hardwood, which overcomes the shortcomings of wet expansion and dry shrinkage of solid wood floor to a certain extent, can offset each other's stress during deformation, greatly reduces the possibility of floor deformation and cracking, and retains the natural wood grain and comfortable foot feeling of solid wood floor. It not only has the appearance of solid wood, but also reduces costs and has better stability.

Compared with the three-layer composite, multi-layer board veneer as long as 1-2mm thick, the general thickness of 13mm-15mm, higher resource utilization.

With less glue, the price is cheaper than solid wood flooring, is close to the natural material of solid wood.

However, if it is a low-cost multi-layer solid wood board, the glue will affect the environmental protection, especially when the floor heating is opened.

The surface of the reinforced composite floor is a wear-resistant layer (aluminum oxide) and wood grain paper (melamine paper), and the middle is a high-density board, which is a man-made board made of wood into powder, added with adhesive, and then made of high temperature and high pressure. The wear-resistant layer is anti-smashing and anti-scratching, while the wood grain paper is fake and real, and the high density board has strong stability.

Laminate flooring is easy to install, glue is used more, too cheap laminate flooring environmental protection is not reassuring. Because if manufacturers want to cut corners with poor glue, formaldehyde will seriously exceed the standard.

Because it is manually pressed with sawdust and the super wear-resistant layer on the surface is very hard, although it feels concave and convex like wood grain when touched by hand, the actual foot feeling on it is very solid and suitable for installation in kitchen and private bathroom without shower.

Buying Skills of Solid Wood Composite Flooring: 3 Look at 1 Touch

1. Look at wood grain paper. Don't buy repeated patterns on the surface. It may be skin sticking.

2. Look at the cross section, solid wood composite floor three or more layers can see the cross section of different levels of wood

3. Looking at the test report, the formaldehyde emission should reach E1 grade (≤ 0.124 mg/m) at least.

4. Touch by hand, there is nothing wrong with the soft texture of solid wood.

Try to look at the floor sample physically, confirm it is solid wood composite, and carefully stick the floor!! Be careful with plate thickness!!!) Or choose more insurance, that is, with less glue multi-layer solid wood and three-layer solid wood flooring.

Whether it is wood flooring or custom furniture panels, they are the main source of home decoration pollution. Regarding the environmental protection of panels, we must be cautious when choosing.

Waterborne Ketian plywood, blockboard, ecological board, wood incense board, particleboard and other products adopt the third generation of patented waterborne polyurethane aldehyde-free adhesive. The environmental protection performance fully meets the standards of the new national standard ENF aldehyde-free board and the national green board, meets the limits of European E0, Japanese F4 star and American CARB formaldehyde, meets the requirements of export boards, and is the first choice for non-toxic customized furniture.
