Kronotex laminate has been known to the Russian consumer for a long time. The products from the German factory have international certificates for compliance with safety quality standards, as they are made from harmless and natural raw materials.

Kronotex is produced in two classes of commercial reliability (32 and 33), that is, such a floor can be used even in rooms where people are constantly moving. And if such a covering is installed in the living room, it will be possible for decades to come not to think about repairing the floor.

Kronotex laminate has a four-layer structure:

• The lower stabilization layer, which ensures the resistance of the structure to wear and protection against moisture from below;
• HDF board is a fibrous material with a density of around 900 kg/m. cc These panels are also produced by Kronotex, so the manufacturer can easily change their properties depending on changes in the production of floor coverings;

• A decorative layer that ensures the necessary appearance of the coating. This layer is made of specially processed paper with an image of wood or stone. Due to the special composition of colors and the special technology of their application, the decorative layer is not exposed to the sun's rays, that is, it does not fade;
• Protective layer of Overlay film, thanks to which the laminate is protected against wear, moisture and other mechanical influences. Environmentally acceptable and health-safe polymers and resins are used for the production of the protective film.

Kronotex laminate floors have good properties, in fact:

• Resistant to mechanical stress. Even after many years of intensive use, the floor surface will remain completely flat and smooth without scratches and will be cleaned with permanent patches;
• Fireproof. Laminate does not support the combustion process, and even during smoldering, it does not emit harmful substances;
• Resistance to elevated temperatures (short term). When a lit match or cigarette falls on the floor, no traces will remain on the coating due to the presence of a reliable top layer;

• Possibility of installation on underfloor heating. But at the same time, the manufacturer recommends that the heating be uniform throughout the Kronotex coating;
• easy care Laminate floors are easy to keep clean with a wet or dry vacuum cleaner;
• Descending. Even in rooms to the south, where there is always sunlight, Kronotex does not change its appearance;
