Hello dear forum community,
we are currently considering the flooring for our upper floor: bedroom, office, dressing room.
We would like to choose a uniform flooring throughout.
At first, we thought of click vinyl. After checking out a few home improvement stores and specialist flooring retailers, the alternatives mentioned above have come up.
Advantages of vinyl: texture, easy installation, moisture resistant.
Disadvantage: plasticizers in the material (although currently considered safe).
Advantages of cork: natural raw material, warm and comfortable underfoot feeling.
Disadvantage: sensitive to moisture, surface relatively soft even in the pressed version. (Possibly problematic in the office)
Lindura (brand name, we are open to alternatives)
Advantages for us personally: best appearance, pleasant underfoot feel, natural raw material, moisture resistant.
Disadvantage: relatively expensive compared to others, limited decor options.
It would be great if you could share your experiences.
Mineral laminate (Logoclic Xtreme)
According to a Bauhaus employee, it has been available for 2 weeks.
Unfortunately, no information besides the promotional video. The friendly staff repeated in a loop that the material is mineral-based, like screed, and that’s all they know...
We liked the decor, it is supposed to be a natural raw material and absolutely moisture resistant.
We are open to manufacturer suggestions, especially regarding Lindura and Logoclic Xtreme.
Good luck Fanta

nordanney25 Sep 2014 10:39... that means I am buying a thin real wood veneer layer with sawdust, uh, wood powder
Quote from the page: "Here, wood flour is mixed with melamine resin and mineral substances to create an incredibly durable surface."
So basically, the top layer is just a coating made from these materials, which is somehow printed and then applied to the click laminate panels? Or is there real wood underneath (or on top)?
