When choosing the best parquet for your home, you must take into account above all the material it is made of and the way it is installed.. We give you some tips so that you are able to choose the one that works best in your home.
Natural wood parquet is made of solid noble wood, in the form of one or three slats, and finished with several layers of varnish, matte or gloss, to protect it and make it resistant to wear.
On the other hand, there is also synthetic or laminated parquet, made of pressed wood fiber and with a decorative layer that imitates natural wood. In addition, it is much more resistant than natural, since several layers of protective transparent melamine resin are placed on top of the decorative layer. So it is ideal to install it in those places where there is a great passage of people, such as shops.
If we consider the way to install it, we can consider the traditional system of laying by gluing, which is perfect for small-laminated parquet floors.
Instead, If we are going to install the parquet in a place where there is a possibility of wear or accident, it is more practical to install it floating. It is fast, simple and, in addition, it allows it to be partially replaced because its sheets are not hooked to the floor or to the walls.
