Why choose laminate flooring?

More and more people are choosing laminate flooring to renovate their homes as well as their offices and shops because it is beautiful, practical, durable and reasonably priced. Over the last 10 years, manufacturers have invested in both technology and research, producing a material with great aesthetic impact with a wide range of choice of finishes and certified quality.

The laminate floor that GIAVA SRL has selected for you consists of a set of layers pressed into a single plank. The technology used is DPL or Direct Pressed Laminate. The layers that make up a panel are: the top layer, in which a protective film (Overlay) is applied, which determines the durability of the floor. In the second layer we find the decorative layer in which a special printed paper is applied, chosen from a wide range of designs. In the middle panel is the main part of the floor, the HDF (High Density Fiber) panel, which is nothing more than a layer made of wood scraps cut up and mixed with glues and resins and then treated at a high temperature and pressure. The last layer is the interlocking system; every company has its own designed and patented system. The most convenient to use to lay a floor is the so-called "5G system", which is nothing more than a male-female joint located on all 4 sides of the plank, present in all the floors offered by the company GIAVA SRL. It is sufficient to have a distance of 7/8 mm and to respect the realization of maximum laying fields of 40/50 mq; in case of higher surfaces it will be necessary to foresee intermediate expansion joints with appropriate profiles.
