The Layers of Laminate
First comes the backing layer, which mainly adds balance and helps to seal away moisture. This layer is often a built-in underlayment substitute. It's also known as the stabilizing layer. Next comes the bulk of the laminate. This is some sort of high-density material known as the core board that gives the plank its strength and stability. Then, there's the photographic image decorative layer, which incorporates a high-quality image of hardwood or tile. Finally comes a top wear layer that protects against scratching, UV damage, and staining.
