Laminate Flooring – Good for Your Health and the Environment

Laminate consists of approximately 90% wood, a natural material. That’s why it has such an eco-friendly profile and delivers both health and environmental benefits. The décor side is mostly made of high-quality paper impregnated with melamine resin. Laminate flooring thus predominantly comprises of wood, a renewable raw material. KRONOTEX regularly invests in state-of-the-art production systems that are designed to recycle and reuse heat and scrap. Everything is produced without pesticides, chlororganic compounds, plasticisers or toxic heavy metals. Which is why KRONOTEX laminate floors have such an outstanding environmental footprint. As a result of their composition and manufacture, they are practically odourless and have extremely low emissions. Studies have shown, in fact, that the formaldehyde emissions of KRONOTEX laminate flooring is comparable to those of untreated wood and therefore well below the legal limits.
