Everything You Need to Know About Commercial Laminate Flooring Origination

When you make business purchases, you’re careful to work with reliable vendors and manufacturers. It shouldn’t be any different when it comes to choosing commercial flooring. If you’re shopping for commercial laminate, you should know some basics about the origin of this unique flooring so that you can choose the right brand for your space. At S&G Carpet and More, we know that where our products come from matters. That’s why we only carry flooring made by the top manufacturers.

The Brothers Behind Laminate Flooring

The early origins of laminate can be traced to Sweden, where it was invented by a pair of enterprising brothers named Robin and Darko Pervan. In 1979, IKEA released the first laminate floors to the public. These products were made by the Swedish company Perstorp under the trade name Pergo and featured a sturdy particleboard core and an interlocking tongue-and-groove system. Darko Pervan later founded his own company, secured patents for locking systems and invented glueless laminate floors.

How Laminate is Made Today

Laminate manufacturing today is much like it was in the past. Of course, today’s flooring manufacturers used the latest techniques and materials to make flooring that is practically unmatched when it comes to durability and versatility. They accomplish this by constructing four-layer planks and tiles from a variety of natural and recycled materials.
