Alexander Zarubin:

"A year ago, after a renovation in the kitchen, the question arose of what to lay on the floor. We opted for the Aberhof cork and did not regret it. The floor is warm underfoot, even walking barefoot is pleasant. There were no problems choosing a color in the store either. We chose a light shade cork under the wallpaper. A big plus is that the floor resists a lot of moisture."

Maxim Kuznetsov:

"We have a cork floor in the children's room and the entrance hall, which is combined with it. When choosing a manufacturer, Aberhof was preferred, since the lacquer coating of this floor prevents various damages in the form of scratches, punching, etc. In addition, the cork itself, and varnish are environmentally friendly. So we don’t worry about the baby’s health.”

Advantages of cork Aberhof

Cork flooring harmonizes well with any design and color of furniture and finishes, it is good to use it in nurseries, since a child, playing on such a floor, will not freeze and get injured.

Aberhof cork floors are produced using high-quality and environmentally friendly protective varnish WRT. This varnish contains ceramic particles and very well prevents the formation of chips, scratches and scuffs. Well, such a floor resists high humidity.

Cork flooring Aberhof is one of the varieties of quality flooring. The material is produced in Germany. The main material for the manufacture of this flooring is natural cork oak, the main advantage of which is environmental friendliness and a high level of practicality.

Aberhof cork floor structure

The material of this brand has a three-layer structure. Its upper layer has a thickness of approximately 2.7 mm, this is a high-quality cork material.

The middle layer acts as a carrier. For its manufacture, a high-quality moisture-resistant HDF plate is used, which is characterized by such qualities as fracture resistance and strength.

The last layer is a special substrate with a thickness of 1.8 mm.

This coating for effective protection of the top layer is treated with a special matte finish. This gives additional strength to the coating, as well as resistance to moisture and wear resistance.

Characteristics of Aberhof cork flooring

Aberhof cork flooring has unique properties in all respects. For the most part, they are provided by the natural qualities that are present in the material itself. When modern new technologies are added to these qualities, the high level of the material exceeds all possible expectations.

Aberhof is quality of the highest level. This indicator is based largely on the presence of small ceramic particles in the composition, thanks to which it is completely possible to minimize the risk of the likely appearance, as well as scuffs.

The lacquer with which the material is coated does not emit any harmful substances into the air, and also helps to preserve the tactile sensations of the natural coating.

Aberhof material is stylish. Such material is widely used in the process of finishing residential premises. Such floors are able to bring the final chord to the overall composition of the style, and will also be an ideal alternative to all traditional floors.

Aberhof floors are practical, since the installation process does not require a lot of time, and there is no need to carry out any special actions during operation.

Advantages of Aberhof cork flooring

The floor covering of this brand, due to all its quality characteristics and properties, is able to last more than ten years.

This is one of the reasons why this particular material should be preferred.

Describing the main advantageous qualities of the material, we can highlight, such as:

• Perfect hypoallergenic, as the coating does not attract dust;
• There is optimal elasticity, which is based on structural features.
  It reduces the load on the musculoskeletal system, therefore it is simply irreplaceable as a floor covering;
• Sound absorption - cork coating is able to seriously reduce vibration indicators, as well as sound vibrations in a particular room;
• Ideal thermal insulation, the floors perfectly retain heat;
• The coating is characterized by optimal slip resistance, which is based on a high coefficient of friction;
• Antistatic;
• Durability of use - over time, the material does not lose its qualities at all.

The described high-quality cork floor is equipped with a special floating structure.

These materials are able to leave stains on the coating, which then will be quite difficult to remove.

Despite the indisputable fact that the coating is wear-resistant, it must be remembered that they are made strictly from natural materials, therefore, it is necessary to carry out the most correct care.

First of all, cork should not get a lot of moisture. Be sure to ensure that water does not linger at the joints of the material. In case of accidental spillage of liquid on the cork floor, it must be removed.

With a sufficiently serious contamination, the cork floor can be cleaned with detergents specially developed for this purpose.

If these are not available, you can use products that do not contain various abrasive substances. A variety of solvents are also strongly discouraged.

To protect the coating from scratches, thereby increasing the life of the cork floor, you can stick small pieces of felt on the legs of the furniture.

It is not necessary to use rubber pads to protect the floor from these damages, since it will be quite difficult to remove the marks that may appear on the coating.

There are also some tips on how to protect your floor from the damaging process of sunburn. For this purpose, it is recommended to hang high-quality blinds or curtains on the windows, which will completely prevent direct sunlight from entering the coating.

You can extend the life of this material if, before installing the material, carefully study all the basic instructions, which usually indicate the basic requirements for the installation method and the features of the operation of the material.

In addition, basic tips and instructions can be obtained during the purchase of cork flooring and wall covering. Professional employees of the companies provide detailed instructions on the use of the material, its installation and professional care for it.

Aberhof laminate is a product of a well-known German company of the same name. The production of laminated floors at the plant is carried out using modern technologies, which makes it possible to endow the boards with the highest strength characteristics, ensure a long service life, and the possibility of applying various types of decor to the surface of the material.

Almost all modern laminate models at Aberhof are manufactured using the innovative Direct Pressure Laminate technology. When using this technology, the production of laminated panels is carried out by the method of direct pressing of individual layers of the coating. In other words, Aberhof engineers place all layers of the future laminate floor into the equipment at the same time, as a result of which they are connected.

Under the influence of high temperature and an industrial press, the physical and chemical properties of the individual components of the panel change, so the manufacturer receives a single composite at the output. The use of this technology allows you to completely eliminate the possibility of delamination of the laminate during operation, which usually occurs when the rules for using this type of flooring are violated. That is why Aberhof laminate is considered one of the most durable and reliable on the Russian market.

Aberhof laminate has many positive characteristics. The following should be highlighted:

• In the assortment of Aberhof, you can find a large selection of moisture-resistant laminate models. Unlike standard decors with moisture-resistant characteristics, the products of the German manufacturer are subjected to a special moisture-proof treatment, which involves providing moisture protection at the level of HDF board. For this, an HDF board of the highest possible density is used, and the material itself is treated with unique hydrophobic additives.
• Aberhof laminate flooring, as many foreign publications assure, is more resistant to wear and tear than similar models in terms of class and characteristics from other European enterprises. This is made possible by the application at the company's factory of a special protective layer of Diamond Spar, the main substance of which is aluminum oxide.
• In the laminated panels of the brand, special wear-resistant locks of our own design are used, which have incredibly high rates of tear and wear resistance. According to research, the interlock in the Aberhof laminate is able to withstand a tensile load of almost 1 ton (the world market leader in this indicator).

Aberhof offers the widest range of models, many of which have been designed in accordance with the latest trends and popular interior styles of recent years. The manufacturer’s catalog contains laminate made in the following styles: Classic (concise, simple, elegant solutions for use in various interiors), Exotic (decors in which ethnic motifs are implemented), Country (decors embodying the style of rural and country houses with wooden floors ), Luxury (such a laminate floor is able to convey the atmosphere of a respectable and luxurious mansion and cottage).

Aberhof laminate structure

Aberhof laminate floors have a traditional structural structure, which is typical for many types of laminate from most manufacturers. Separate plans include: decorative stabilizing and protective layer, bearing plate.

1. In the manufacture of the protective layer, the Diamond Spar technology described above is used, which protects the laminate floor from external influences, ensuring its resistance to wear, resistance to light and temperature effects. It is by the protective layer that the class of the laminate is determined.
2. The decorative layer is a base made of special paper, which is impregnated with melamine in the factory. After that, a prepared image with a pattern of a wood or stone structure is applied to the paper.
3. Aberhof uses the most dense HDF board as the basis. This allows you to endow the floor covering with mechanical strength, moisture-resistant characteristics, stability during operation and a number of other positive properties.
4. The stabilization layer in the laminated construction is necessary to provide the function of counteracting incoming loads, as well as protection against moisture penetration.

German manufacturer's collections

Aberhof today offers several different collections of laminate flooring. Models differ in appearance, properties, physical and technical indicators, so each buyer will be able to choose a laminate floor that will fit his requirements.

Victory. The description of the collection on the official website of the manufacturer says that this series offers customers models of a classic appearance. They are universal, durable, optimally suited for the home, have a wear resistance class of 32, therefore they are designed for a wide range of private and corporate consumers. The main distinguishing feature of the decors of the Victory collection is the presence of rustic embossing in the design of the panels. The warranty period provided is 15 years.

Strom. A professional collection of 33 class laminate flooring, the decors of which are suitable for many types of public, residential and commercial premises. The manufacturer notes that the models of the series will be the best solution for interiors decorated in traditional European and Oriental styles, in the style of Provence. The design of models is dominated by the effect of structural embossing. The surface has an original and unusual matt-gloss look. Warranty period - 20 years.

Silver. Spectacular, elegant, luxurious laminate models with oak decoration. When creating the design of the panels of the Silver collection, Chrome Zone technology is used, which allows you to give the surface of the flooring an unusual, barely noticeable silver sheen, which, coupled with an imitation of an oak board, looks just great. Warranty period - 15 years.

Compass. In this series, laminated boards are presented, made in a single-strip design, so a high-quality imitation of a massive wooden floor is obtained. The general style of the Kompass series can be described as seasoned, concise, calm. This collection also features Chrome Zone technology. A distinctive feature of the panels of the series are the increased overall dimensions of the lamellas. In addition, each element of the planks is processed using Isowaxx technology, so the material is completely resistant to liquids.

Regata 33. The collection offers laminate floors with increased wear resistance. In the production of models of the series, Brandons technology is used, which allows you to make the surface of the flooring more refined, which is achieved by improving the expressiveness of the wood structure of the imitated wood species. The panels are quite narrow, have a 4-sided chamfer, so an excellent imitation of a wooden parquet floor is achieved. Models of the Regatta 33 collection are equipped with the Megaloc locking system, which is completely impregnated with wax compounds to protect against moisture. These are class 33 decors with a thickness of 10 mm, so this laminate floor will last an incredibly long time.

Legend 33. Another new collection from Aberhof, in which customers are offered models with imitation of ash, oak, cedar, walnut wood. The wear resistance class of the models is 33, so these laminate floors are best suited for installation in commercial premises. If you lay the coating in a residential utility room, then it can last 20-25 years without losing its appearance, but for the home, the manufacturer recommends preferring a laminate of 31-32 classes, which does not overpay for material characteristics that do not have to be used.

All Aberhof collections presented above can be purchased on the Russian market. This is a fairly popular and common laminate, so there are usually no problems with finding a suitable decor from this company.

Aberhof laminate care instructions

The official website of the Aberhof company tells about the specifics of caring for German-made laminated floors. It specifically notes that the surface of the flooring is anti-static and hygienic, so dust will not accumulate on the floor. It is highly systematic (every day or every few days) to clean the flooring with a vacuum cleaner with a wet nozzle.

In the presence of dirt, you should try to remove them with a damp cloth dipped in a normal soapy solution. If the dirt is old and difficult to remove, then it is best to use specialized laminate care products to clean them, which will reduce the likelihood of damage to the top protective layer of the floor.

It is not allowed to use detergents containing abrasive elements to clean the laminate. Also, do not use a broom, brushes with hard bristles and other means that have a mechanical effect on the surface of the laminated floor.

If possible, soft pads made of felt or pile fabric should be put on the legs of chairs, sofas, armchairs, which will avoid scratches and other damage to the laminate floor.

The foundation and further development of Aberhof began after the end of the Second World War, as a small woodworking company in the southwest of Germany. Now, under the trademark of this brand, various floor coverings are produced in more than 100 different decors for any interior solutions. The most popular laminate was Aberhof, which organically combined unsurpassed German quality and excellent practicality.

The production of laminated parquet boards is carried out at European factories, as well as at the latest production complex in Russia, which allows us to offer the buyer excellent products at an affordable cost. The presented coating is practically not afraid of high humidity, since the internal structure of the material is treated with a special composition. Also, a unique protective agent based on natural wax is applied to the edge of each lamella, which allows you to create almost completely sealed joints. This contributes to the preservation of the structural integrity and original dimensions of the laid laminate throughout the entire period of its operation.

High strength and resistance to abrasion is provided by a special protective layer on the Diamond Spar, which is made with the addition of aluminum oxide or corundum. This material is very hard and is second in strength. That is why the coating based on it is able to withstand high physical exertion and is resistant to scuffs and scratches.

The patented locking system provides the laminated board with excellent adhesion and high tear strength, preventing the formation of gaps at the points of attachment of individual lamellas. This solution is able to withstand extreme loads, which can reach 1000 kg for the long side of each coating element.

The manufacturer pays special attention to the development of attractive decorative solutions based on imitation of valuable and noble species of natural wood. All design solutions are collected in 7 different collections: from exquisite classics and cozy country to extravagant exotics and vintage luxury. Separately, we can mention the Aberhof Storm collection, which combines the beauty of an oak plank with the spirit and strength of the water element, as well as the ability to withstand high traffic in commercial premises. At the same time, regardless of the chosen type of laminated parquet from the specified manufacturer, you will be able to appreciate its following advantages:

• unsurpassed strength and wear resistance - thanks to the use of a unique protective composition based on corundum;
• excellent moisture resistance, thanks to a special impregnation that reliably protects the coating structure from swelling and cracking when the laminate is used in rooms with a high level of humidity;
• create an incredibly beautiful and cozy interior in any room, from more than 100 different decors.
