A GOOD DESIGN
DOESN’T HAVE TO
BE COOL.
“Good design is as little design as
possible,” design icon Dieter Rams
once postulated. It should be practical,
honest and long-lasting. This applies in
particular to designs that have what it
takes to become classics. They imbue
a cosy home with the elegance
it needs.

Precision engineering
for the senses
TECHNOLOGY
It looks like a beautiful wood floor and feels just like it too.
Engineers, scientists and designers have invested almost 40 years in
research and development to achieve this. Precision technology is used
in order to come this close to nature.
A	 printed decor image with impressive colour 	
	 resolution, applied to a high-density fibre-
	 board (HDF) and covered by a robust surface
	 layer (known as the overlay) to protect against
sharp heels and furniture casters – this is, and remains
the recipe for the success of laminate flooring. Amongst
the manufacturer's best kept secrets are the recipes for
impregnating resin. These ensure that this protective layer
looks great even after the harshest physical performance
tests. Work on the further development of the product has
continued intensively since 1977, which is the year that
laminate flooring technology was invented. This is why
even an expert today would have a difficult time telling
the difference between EGGER laminate flooring with its
perfectly fitting surface and a wood floor just by looking
or running a hand over it.
Applying the surface textures to the decor image
synchronously has been technically possible for around
ten years. This technology is called “synchronised pore”
within the industry. “However, the way the synchronised
pore matches the image underneath is far more precise
today,” says Jörg Hüls, Head of Flooring Product
Management at EGGER. “Today’s textures feature cracks,
knots and cross-cuts in a far more natural way.” The
textures are integrated in the surface layer by short-cycle
presses or continuous presses. The computer-controlled
line is equipped with sensitive cameras that respond to
several reference markers in the decor image. They pass
the information on to a control system that aligns the
board with a size of 2.60 by 2.10 metres (102.36” × 82.68”)
down to the millimetre.
The decor image is developed with great attention to
detail. A media designer can spend up to four weeks
editing the photo of a wood surface. “The harmony and
naturalness of the image is what counts for us,” explains
EGGER decor developer Peter Fabri. “We want to achieve
a consistent overall appearance.” He usually breaks the
grain down into three colours and designs a printed image
for each of them. The individual images are printed onto
the fine paper by printing cylinders – one cylinder for
every colour – using the gravure printing process.
Therefore, a major challenge in the image editing process
is designing the growth rings in the woodgrain decor so
that they meet harmoniously at the end of a cylinder
revolution – with no intervention in creation that is visible
to the eye. “Good design is invisible” – the famous rule of
the modern design trade is taken literally here.

Developing the design and printing template takes up
to four weeks. The decorative paper is printed using the
gravure printing process. Modern methods also work with
direct printing on the coreboard.
The name laminate flooring
originates from “lamina”,
which is Latin for “layer”. The
layered composition of this
flooring technology combines
the strengths of wood, paper
and resin. The hard-wearing
overlay is on top. It protects the
decor image underneath, which
is either printed on paper or
directly onto the HDF coreboard.
In order to prevent deformation,
what is known as a “balancer
paper” is applied to the reverse
side of the coreboard.

One would be hard pressed to find
another type of floor covering that can
match the price-performance ratio
of laminate flooring. It offers a large
selection of high-quality designs at
affordable prices. New surfaces and
floor board formats can be used to
design living spaces which would be
far more expensive with classic solid
wood floors. Thanks to their longevity,
the floors also retain their beauty for
years to come.

FLEXIBLE
ROOM DESIGN. 
Modern life can change from one day
to the next. This means that not only
us, but also the furnishings need
to be flexible. Laminate flooring is
quick to install and can be removed
again just as easily. Thanks to it's
properties, the flooring is light fast
which means it is resistant against
UV rays. It neither bleaches nor
shows any unwanted discolouration
should you happen to move a piece of
furniture around.
ROBUST. 
Floors have to stand up to a lot and
nevertheless appear cheerful all the
time. Robust surfaces make laminate
flooring indestructible against
abrasion, scratching and moisture.
This is essential, particularly in
applications with high traffic.
Laminate flooring from EGGER offers
solutions here that are also suitable
for innovative shop concepts.

ECOLOGY.
Laminate flooring is a wood-based
material which is made primarily from
PEFC-certified industrial wood and
residual wood from the sawmill industry
(e.g. hackchips, chips) as well as
ecologically harmless binding agents.
It contains neither PVC nor softeners and
can be fully recycled. It also features an
outstanding environmental performance
assessment compared to many other
floor coverings and ceramic tiles.

THE PERSON
INTERVIEW
EGGER laminate flooring  21
The Scandinavian model: Ambiance
with plenty of white, light hues and
natural materials.
Alongside natural green, rose-coloured
accents intensify the spirit of serenity and
cosiness.
Ms. Kaiser, thanks to modern technology there are
virtually no limits on flooring design. Nevertheless,
most people prefer the look of wood. Can you explain
that for us?
GABRIELA KAISER: More and more people are living in
cities today, so our relationship with nature is getting
lost. We choose flooring with wood effects to bring nature
inside our own four walls, since our home today is mainly
a haven for relaxation and regeneration.
Which wood types and looks are the most
popular today?
Light and grey hues that exude calm and brightness.
Right now the Scandinavians who battle long, dismal
winters are our role models here. We are increasingly
choosing domestic types of wood and their reproductions.
Oak remains important in many different versions, but
larch, spruce and ash also play a role. The same applies
to authentic wood grains and textures as they reinforce
naturalness. Signs of use give us a flooring that tells a
story.
Which developments are defining bathroom design at
the moment?
The bathroom has evolved from a room that is merely used
for cleansing the body to a comfortable space where we
bathe extensively, look after ourselves and even jump on
the exercise bike. This is reflected in the choice of warmer
colours and natural materials.
22  EGGER laminate flooring
Light wood hues also
in harmony with the
Scandinavian model
calm the chaos.
Laminate flooring is particularly
popular for redesigning and
renovating rooms.
Whilst tiles used to be installed from floor to ceiling, today
they are installed only where absolutely necessary. Warm
materials such as wood are preferred. Wood effects
instantly gives rooms a cosy appearance. We associate
wood with warmth and relaxation.
Are there trends that explicitly indicate laminate
flooring as the floor covering of choice?
Mobility is one of the big buzzwords of our time. People
used to take a job and then stay there forever. Today we
change jobs because we want to develop our careers.
Moving home has become a matter of course. We therefore
require living space solutions that are not too expensive,
straightforward to implement and nevertheless look great.
In closing, a few words about trends in shop fitting and
exhibition stands …
Trends fluctuate widely here because the spaces created
are intended to awaken our desires. Trends can also be
exaggerated as we only spend a certain amount of time
in them. I find it interesting that attempts are being made
right now to establish a cosy, homelike atmosphere in
shops and at trade fairs, with oriental rugs or wood floors
that look old. This gives new rooms authenticity and
history, even if it is artificial.

COLOURS
Designing atmospheres
Our perception of colour is highly individual. And yet the effect can
be objectively described. Scientists know what colour is most popular
around the world, how colours affect the mind and how they influence
our heating behaviour.
BLUE is considered the most popular colour worldwide.
Every second person in Europe names it as their favourite
colour. Physically the colour is short-wave light which
makes it one of the cool colours. It withstands twilight
the longest. In psychology it stands for mental clarity
and meditative calm. It can bring expansiveness and
respectability to a room. In muted hues, blue is often
recommended as a colour for bedrooms.

Light and natural, cosy, warm or calming – colour groups
set the mood in a room.
GREEN is a primary colour alongside red and blue. Many
of this colour’s hues are associated with the warmer
seasons and flourishing nature. Green has a comforting,
soothing effect. Thanks to this wellness effect, it is often
used for designing intimate rooms in the home such as the
bathroom and bedroom.
YELLOW is not a primary colour. It is created through the
reduction of blue. Only five percent of men love it and
women tend to reject it. Yet it represents sunny feelings
and a good mood in the interior decorating field.
RED takes second place in favourite colours around the
world, particularly amongst women. The colour is con-
sidered warm and the invigorating effect on the body can
actually be measured. This colour is the first to transition
to grey in twilight. This also has to be considered when
designing shady rooms. Rose explorations create an
atmosphere of casual cosiness or play with the sensuality
of rococo.
BROWN is the colour of natural materials that have been
popular for years, led by wood floors. Brown hues are
appreciated for their earthy warmth. From the explora-
tions of sand colours through mixtures with grey such
as “Greige” to dark brown, they are known in the colour
spectrum as representing rusticality – also and especially
in large cities.
BLACK AND WHITE are not actually colours. White is
the result of a body reflecting all the colours contained
in light, while black is the result of absorbing all the
colours. White has been considered an interior design
“mega-trend” for years. Popular versions of white lend
towards cream and porcelain, since these harmonise more
readily with natural materials than industrial premium
white.
WARM AND COLD are measurable colour qualities.
Scientists have established a relationship between the
wavelengths of these hues and the perception of colour.
This perception of colour also influences the heating
behaviour of a person living there. For example, there is a
tendency to heat blue rooms up to three degrees warmer
than red ones. So a warm colour actually helps cut down
on heating costs.

28  EGGER laminate flooring
L	 aminate flooring has to pass through the school
	 of hard knocks before it comes to market. The
	 venue for the first durability tests: Wismar,
	 EGGER plant laboratory. A sharp crack is heard
as steel balls the size of a pigeon's egg hit a sample piece
of the new flooring from a height of one metre. In another
test, the casters of an office chair roll over a disc-shaped
specimen for hours. A technician checks the quality of
the coreboard at regular intervals. All components are
put through their paces. After all, certification institutes
and consumer protection organisations will do the same
later on. This is where qualities which are not even
visible to the naked eye really count. To put it another
way: Scratches, defects and swelling would result if
these qualities were not present. “Even after being used
intensively for an extended period of time, the flooring
should not show this,” says Michael Gerbl, who is
responsible for EGGER flooring marketing and product
management. The uppermost protective layer made of
melamine resin reinforced with minerals must meet the
highest requirements in terms of resistance to wear and
abrasion.
Depending on whether a floor covering will be installed
in a high-traffic corridor, lightly used bedroom or damp
bathroom, the strength classes according to EN 13 329
serve as a crucial reference. Next to resistance and
abrasion, these classes also take the characteristics of
the coreboard made of high density fibreboard (HDF) into
account. It is in this wood-based material that EGGER
mills the precision profiles for the click joints that make
laminate flooring so quick and simple to install. The joints
are continuously optimised. For example, the latest UNI fit!
technology simplifies installation and makes the joints in
the flooring even more sturdy.
Handshake instead of electric shock: The special recipe
of individual components contains the well-kept secret
that makes EGGER laminate flooring antistatic.
The coreboard is also in the process of opening up new
design possibilities and freedom. EGGER has developed
a new technology known as “aqua+”, which makes
laminate flooring suitable for bathrooms and kitchens
as well. The floor coverings are more resistant to moisture
by a factor of 5 compared to classic laminate flooring.
Protected by a slip-resistant surface and featuring the
latest wood designs, they provide the perfect basis for
the trend in favour of more wellness moments in your
own bathroom.

After they are pressed in the EGGER plant, the
HDF boards are cooled in the star cooler.
Many wood types from various
resources are suitable for the
production of fibreboard. Even
residual wood can be broken
down into fibres, finely misted
with a glue made of resin and
pressed into boards. In contrast
to medium-density fibreboard
(MDF), high-density fibreboard
(HDF) has a density of more
than 800 kg/m3. While MDF
boards from EGGER are suitable
for many different applications
in the furniture segment, the
company produces HDF boards
especially for laminate flooring.

From
AUTHENTIC.
This style trend is defined by wood
types that exhibit their nativeness
with a highly natural, rustic or elegant
character. The broad colour spectrum
offered by nature is represented
to best advantage and provides
extensive design freedom.
Everyone wants to feel comfortable in their own home.
From the walls to the floor to the ceiling, details are very important here
too. It is only the individual combination of colours, materials and accessories
that express your personal character. A style guide you can trust.

own distinctive charm.
34  EGGER laminate flooring
NEW NATURAL STYLE.
They are familiar, natural materials
but in another format, and with
different surface processing. This
unusual treatment gives a new
appearance. Hence the name of the
decor world: “New Natural Style”.
While naturalness is definitive for
this flooring, the look is nevertheless
modern.
EGGER laminate flooring  35
PURE MODERN.
“Pure Modern” stands for a clear line.
The new wood effect alongside more
abstract designs appear light, bright
and modern. Such floor coverings
find their inherent place in lofts, open
rooms and living quarters with linear
designs.
VINTAGE.
Light and warm decors in all types of
wood, worn and bearing scars,
tell their unique stories here. These
decors are suitable for creating a
homelike and rustic atmosphere.
They harmonise perfectly
with heirlooms, existing
favourites and designer
pieces, and industrial brand-
name goods.
Making small rooms appear expansive and tidy – this is an art form
which is being mastered around the world, especially in sparkling
metropolises. Since living space is becoming a luxury in popular
downtown locations, this is now a necessity. The good news:
Transforming little room into a lot of space is becoming more possible
all the time. Applying this knowledge is good for any home.

CLEARING OUT THE CLUTTER.
40 square metres means strong decisions have to be
made to prevent the space from getting crowded. Only the
items required for daily life have to be close at hand. The
rest is stored in boxes under the bed or on the ceiling.
Anything that is no longer needed goes directly into the
box for the flea market and to give away – or into the trash.
BEHIND THE SCENES.
When things look neat and tidy out front, there is usually
a storage room in the back making this possible. Whilst
this does take up space, it relieves the living space of the
clothes drying rack and winter clothing, all file folders,
tool kits and boxes of screws, and the rollerblades for the
whole family. In the somewhat larger version, it is even
suitable as a walk-in closet.
MULTIFUNCTIONAL.
Furnishings have to be reduced to a minimum in
small rooms. Combination furniture with concealed
storage is ideal here. Such multifunctional furniture
is practical and saves valuable space. After all, too
much clutter makes small rooms appear unsettled
and therefore uncomfortable. A light, friendly floor
covering also makes the room appear larger.

GOING UP THE WALL.
More and more often, laminate flooring is also
used as wall panelling. No wonder, since the
selection of material reproductions, designs and
colours is so broad. It is quick to install without a
lot of effort. Not even the wall paint or wallpaper
needs to be removed.
SKIRTING.
Laminate flooring is made of wood, a living
material that expands and contracts with the
room temperature and humidity. Expansion
joints towards the wall provide the necessary
space. In order to conceal these joints,
EGGER offers skirting in perfectly matched
colours as part of the accessory programme.
MIX  MATCH.
A mix of styles is the most common around the
world. Here the art is to transform necessity into
a virtue. Industrial furniture can appear attractive
alongside heirlooms, clear geometric shapes next
to baroque pieces. But Mix  Match should not be
merely random. Regularly clearing out the clutter
applies here also!

THE EFFECTS OF LIGHT.
Daylight and the light of monitors have a
very high proportion of blue. This keeps
the brain active in the daytime. The
proportion of red increases at twilight,
promoting hormones such as melatonin
which make you sleepy. Modern lighting
concepts take this into account and
coordinate the lighting technology and
colour of the reflective surfaces with the
time of day.
Tip:
Several light sources
not only make a room more
cosy; islands of light also
give it structure.

  • 6. 6  EGGER laminate flooring Precision engineering for the senses TECHNOLOGY It looks like a beautiful wood floor and feels just like it too. Engineers, scientists and designers have invested almost 40 years in research and development to achieve this. Precision technology is used in order to come this close to nature. A printed decor image with impressive colour resolution, applied to a high-density fibre- board (HDF) and covered by a robust surface layer (known as the overlay) to protect against sharp heels and furniture casters – this is, and remains the recipe for the success of laminate flooring. Amongst the manufacturer's best kept secrets are the recipes for impregnating resin. These ensure that this protective layer looks great even after the harshest physical performance tests. Work on the further development of the product has continued intensively since 1977, which is the year that laminate flooring technology was invented. This is why even an expert today would have a difficult time telling the difference between EGGER laminate flooring with its perfectly fitting surface and a wood floor just by looking or running a hand over it. Applying the surface textures to the decor image synchronously has been technically possible for around ten years. This technology is called “synchronised pore” within the industry. “However, the way the synchronised pore matches the image underneath is far more precise today,” says Jörg Hüls, Head of Flooring Product Management at EGGER. “Today’s textures feature cracks, knots and cross-cuts in a far more natural way.” The textures are integrated in the surface layer by short-cycle presses or continuous presses. The computer-controlled line is equipped with sensitive cameras that respond to several reference markers in the decor image. They pass the information on to a control system that aligns the board with a size of 2.60 by 2.10 metres (102.36” × 82.68”) down to the millimetre. The decor image is developed with great attention to detail. A media designer can spend up to four weeks editing the photo of a wood surface. “The harmony and naturalness of the image is what counts for us,” explains EGGER decor developer Peter Fabri. “We want to achieve a consistent overall appearance.” He usually breaks the grain down into three colours and designs a printed image for each of them. The individual images are printed onto the fine paper by printing cylinders – one cylinder for every colour – using the gravure printing process. Therefore, a major challenge in the image editing process is designing the growth rings in the woodgrain decor so that they meet harmoniously at the end of a cylinder revolution – with no intervention in creation that is visible to the eye. “Good design is invisible” – the famous rule of the modern design trade is taken literally here.
  • 7. 1 2 3 4 EGGER laminate flooring  7 Developing the design and printing template takes up to four weeks. The decorative paper is printed using the gravure printing process. Modern methods also work with direct printing on the coreboard. The name laminate flooring originates from “lamina”, which is Latin for “layer”. The layered composition of this flooring technology combines the strengths of wood, paper and resin. The hard-wearing overlay is on top. It protects the decor image underneath, which is either printed on paper or directly onto the HDF coreboard. In order to prevent deformation, what is known as a “balancer paper” is applied to the reverse side of the coreboard.

  • 10. 3ECONOMICAL.  One would be hard pressed to find another type of floor covering that can match the price-performance ratio of laminate flooring. It offers a large selection of high-quality designs at affordable prices. New surfaces and floor board formats can be used to design living spaces which would be far more expensive with classic solid wood floors. Thanks to their longevity, the floors also retain their beauty for years to come.

Laminate flooring is quick to install and can be removed again just as easily. Thanks to it's properties, the flooring is light fast which means it is resistant against UV rays. It neither bleaches nor shows any unwanted discolouration should you happen to move a piece of furniture around. ROBUST.  Floors have to stand up to a lot and nevertheless appear cheerful all the time. Robust surfaces make laminate flooring indestructible against abrasion, scratching and moisture. This is essential, particularly in applications with high traffic. Laminate flooring from EGGER offers solutions here that are also suitable for innovative shop concepts. H1004 La Mancha Oak smoke

  • 20. 20  EGGER laminate flooring Some preferences never change, but others do so drastically. An interview with trend scout Gabriela Kaiser about modern wood effects, desires that define trends and bold presentations. Floors that tell a story Gabriela Kaiser has been advising renowned companies in various industries as a trend scout for more than ten years. She studied textile design and gives presentations at interna- tional trade fairs, design and trend events, and also teaches strategy and trend research at Technische Hochschule Georg Simon Ohm, the technical university in Nuremberg. THE PERSON INTERVIEW
  • 21. EGGER laminate flooring  21 The Scandinavian model: Ambiance with plenty of white, light hues and natural materials. Alongside natural green, rose-coloured accents intensify the spirit of serenity and cosiness. Ms. Kaiser, thanks to modern technology there are virtually no limits on flooring design. Nevertheless, most people prefer the look of wood. Can you explain that for us? GABRIELA KAISER: More and more people are living in cities today, so our relationship with nature is getting lost. We choose flooring with wood effects to bring nature inside our own four walls, since our home today is mainly a haven for relaxation and regeneration. Which wood types and looks are the most popular today? Light and grey hues that exude calm and brightness. Right now the Scandinavians who battle long, dismal winters are our role models here. We are increasingly choosing domestic types of wood and their reproductions. Oak remains important in many different versions, but larch, spruce and ash also play a role. The same applies to authentic wood grains and textures as they reinforce naturalness. Signs of use give us a flooring that tells a story. Which developments are defining bathroom design at the moment? The bathroom has evolved from a room that is merely used for cleansing the body to a comfortable space where we bathe extensively, look after ourselves and even jump on the exercise bike. This is reflected in the choice of warmer colours and natural materials.
  • 22. 22  EGGER laminate flooring Light wood hues also in harmony with the Scandinavian model calm the chaos. Laminate flooring is particularly popular for redesigning and renovating rooms. Whilst tiles used to be installed from floor to ceiling, today they are installed only where absolutely necessary. Warm materials such as wood are preferred. Wood effects instantly gives rooms a cosy appearance. We associate wood with warmth and relaxation. Are there trends that explicitly indicate laminate flooring as the floor covering of choice? Mobility is one of the big buzzwords of our time. People used to take a job and then stay there forever. Today we change jobs because we want to develop our careers. Moving home has become a matter of course. We therefore require living space solutions that are not too expensive, straightforward to implement and nevertheless look great. In closing, a few words about trends in shop fitting and exhibition stands … Trends fluctuate widely here because the spaces created are intended to awaken our desires. Trends can also be exaggerated as we only spend a certain amount of time in them. I find it interesting that attempts are being made right now to establish a cosy, homelike atmosphere in shops and at trade fairs, with oriental rugs or wood floors that look old. This gives new rooms authenticity and history, even if it is artificial.
  • 23. EGGER laminate flooring  23 Many trends are revealed for the first time in the design of exhibition stands. Restaurants and retailers are experimenting with living styles.
  • 24. 24  EGGER laminate flooring COLOURS Designing atmospheres Our perception of colour is highly individual. And yet the effect can be objectively described. Scientists know what colour is most popular around the world, how colours affect the mind and how they influence our heating behaviour. BLUE is considered the most popular colour worldwide. Every second person in Europe names it as their favourite colour. Physically the colour is short-wave light which makes it one of the cool colours. It withstands twilight the longest. In psychology it stands for mental clarity and meditative calm. It can bring expansiveness and respectability to a room. In muted hues, blue is often recommended as a colour for bedrooms. CALMING               RADIATING         STIMULATING            REGULATING
  • 25. EGGER laminate flooring  25 Light and natural, cosy, warm or calming – colour groups set the mood in a room. GREEN is a primary colour alongside red and blue. Many of this colour’s hues are associated with the warmer seasons and flourishing nature. Green has a comforting, soothing effect. Thanks to this wellness effect, it is often used for designing intimate rooms in the home such as the bathroom and bedroom. YELLOW is not a primary colour. It is created through the reduction of blue. Only five percent of men love it and women tend to reject it. Yet it represents sunny feelings and a good mood in the interior decorating field. RED takes second place in favourite colours around the world, particularly amongst women. The colour is con- sidered warm and the invigorating effect on the body can actually be measured. This colour is the first to transition to grey in twilight. This also has to be considered when designing shady rooms. Rose explorations create an atmosphere of casual cosiness or play with the sensuality of rococo. BROWN is the colour of natural materials that have been popular for years, led by wood floors. Brown hues are appreciated for their earthy warmth. From the explora- tions of sand colours through mixtures with grey such as “Greige” to dark brown, they are known in the colour spectrum as representing rusticality – also and especially in large cities. BLACK AND WHITE are not actually colours. White is the result of a body reflecting all the colours contained in light, while black is the result of absorbing all the colours. White has been considered an interior design “mega-trend” for years. Popular versions of white lend towards cream and porcelain, since these harmonise more readily with natural materials than industrial premium white. WARM AND COLD are measurable colour qualities. Scientists have established a relationship between the wavelengths of these hues and the perception of colour. This perception of colour also influences the heating behaviour of a person living there. For example, there is a tendency to heat blue rooms up to three degrees warmer than red ones. So a warm colour actually helps cut down on heating costs.

  • 28. 28  EGGER laminate flooring L aminate flooring has to pass through the school of hard knocks before it comes to market. The venue for the first durability tests: Wismar, EGGER plant laboratory. A sharp crack is heard as steel balls the size of a pigeon's egg hit a sample piece of the new flooring from a height of one metre. In another test, the casters of an office chair roll over a disc-shaped specimen for hours. A technician checks the quality of the coreboard at regular intervals. All components are put through their paces. After all, certification institutes and consumer protection organisations will do the same later on. This is where qualities which are not even visible to the naked eye really count. To put it another way: Scratches, defects and swelling would result if these qualities were not present. “Even after being used intensively for an extended period of time, the flooring should not show this,” says Michael Gerbl, who is responsible for EGGER flooring marketing and product management. The uppermost protective layer made of melamine resin reinforced with minerals must meet the highest requirements in terms of resistance to wear and abrasion. Depending on whether a floor covering will be installed in a high-traffic corridor, lightly used bedroom or damp bathroom, the strength classes according to EN 13 329 serve as a crucial reference. Next to resistance and abrasion, these classes also take the characteristics of the coreboard made of high density fibreboard (HDF) into account. It is in this wood-based material that EGGER mills the precision profiles for the click joints that make laminate flooring so quick and simple to install. The joints are continuously optimised. For example, the latest UNI fit! technology simplifies installation and makes the joints in the flooring even more sturdy. Handshake instead of electric shock: The special recipe of individual components contains the well-kept secret that makes EGGER laminate flooring antistatic. The coreboard is also in the process of opening up new design possibilities and freedom. EGGER has developed a new technology known as “aqua+”, which makes laminate flooring suitable for bathrooms and kitchens as well. The floor coverings are more resistant to moisture by a factor of 5 compared to classic laminate flooring. Protected by a slip-resistant surface and featuring the latest wood designs, they provide the perfect basis for the trend in favour of more wellness moments in your own bathroom. Invisible Hero AT THE CORE Laminate flooring gets trampled every day and can even get wet. This clearly demonstrates what the protective layer and coreboard can stand up to today. “Flooring with wood effects is increasingly gaining popularity for the kitchen and bathroom.” Find out more! www.egger.com/ qr-laminate-flooring-2
  • 29. EGGER laminate flooring  29 After they are pressed in the EGGER plant, the HDF boards are cooled in the star cooler. Many wood types from various resources are suitable for the production of fibreboard. Even residual wood can be broken down into fibres, finely misted with a glue made of resin and pressed into boards. In contrast to medium-density fibreboard (MDF), high-density fibreboard (HDF) has a density of more than 800 kg/m3. While MDF boards from EGGER are suitable for many different applications in the furniture segment, the company produces HDF boards especially for laminate flooring. HDF Laminate flooring which is suitable for installation in bathrooms is identified by the symbol for the aqua+ technology.

  • 32. 32  EGGER laminate flooring STYLE TRENDS to pure modern From AUTHENTIC. This style trend is defined by wood types that exhibit their nativeness with a highly natural, rustic or elegant character. The broad colour spectrum offered by nature is represented to best advantage and provides extensive design freedom. Everyone wants to feel comfortable in their own home. From the walls to the floor to the ceiling, details are very important here too. It is only the individual combination of colours, materials and accessories that express your personal character. A style guide you can trust. VINTAGE
  • 33. EGGER laminate flooring  33 MATERIALS. Realistic material reproductions are found here in many styles and colours. These decors are suitable for many different fields of application – from the entrance way to wall installation. They imbue a room with their own distinctive charm.
  • 34. 34  EGGER laminate flooring NEW NATURAL STYLE. They are familiar, natural materials but in another format, and with different surface processing. This unusual treatment gives a new appearance. Hence the name of the decor world: “New Natural Style”. While naturalness is definitive for this flooring, the look is nevertheless modern.
  • 35. EGGER laminate flooring  35 PURE MODERN. “Pure Modern” stands for a clear line. The new wood effect alongside more abstract designs appear light, bright and modern. Such floor coverings find their inherent place in lofts, open rooms and living quarters with linear designs. VINTAGE. Light and warm decors in all types of wood, worn and bearing scars, tell their unique stories here. These decors are suitable for creating a homelike and rustic atmosphere. They harmonise perfectly with heirlooms, existing favourites and designer pieces, and industrial brand- name goods.
  • 36. Making small rooms appear expansive and tidy – this is an art form which is being mastered around the world, especially in sparkling metropolises. Since living space is becoming a luxury in popular downtown locations, this is now a necessity. The good news: Transforming little room into a lot of space is becoming more possible all the time. Applying this knowledge is good for any home. SMALL space A SPACIOUS MADE FURNITURE INTERIOR DESIGN
  • 37. EGGER laminate flooring  37 CLEARING OUT THE CLUTTER. 40 square metres means strong decisions have to be made to prevent the space from getting crowded. Only the items required for daily life have to be close at hand. The rest is stored in boxes under the bed or on the ceiling. Anything that is no longer needed goes directly into the box for the flea market and to give away – or into the trash. BEHIND THE SCENES. When things look neat and tidy out front, there is usually a storage room in the back making this possible. Whilst this does take up space, it relieves the living space of the clothes drying rack and winter clothing, all file folders, tool kits and boxes of screws, and the rollerblades for the whole family. In the somewhat larger version, it is even suitable as a walk-in closet. MULTIFUNCTIONAL. Furnishings have to be reduced to a minimum in small rooms. Combination furniture with concealed storage is ideal here. Such multifunctional furniture is practical and saves valuable space. After all, too much clutter makes small rooms appear unsettled and therefore uncomfortable. A light, friendly floor covering also makes the room appear larger.

  • 39. EGGER laminate flooring  39 GOING UP THE WALL. More and more often, laminate flooring is also used as wall panelling. No wonder, since the selection of material reproductions, designs and colours is so broad. It is quick to install without a lot of effort. Not even the wall paint or wallpaper needs to be removed. SKIRTING. Laminate flooring is made of wood, a living material that expands and contracts with the room temperature and humidity. Expansion joints towards the wall provide the necessary space. In order to conceal these joints, EGGER offers skirting in perfectly matched colours as part of the accessory programme. MIX MATCH. A mix of styles is the most common around the world. Here the art is to transform necessity into a virtue. Industrial furniture can appear attractive alongside heirlooms, clear geometric shapes next to baroque pieces. But Mix Match should not be merely random. Regularly clearing out the clutter applies here also! Topreventchildrenfrombringingalltheirtoysintothekitchen,theirroomshouldbedirectlyadjacent. PSYCHOLOGY OF LIVING. A productive office and a harmonious home are a matter of architectural psychology.

Further information is found in the product descriptions and on the website www.egger.com THE EFFECTS OF LIGHT. Daylight and the light of monitors have a very high proportion of blue. This keeps the brain active in the daytime. The proportion of red increases at twilight, promoting hormones such as melatonin which make you sleepy. Modern lighting concepts take this into account and coordinate the lighting technology and colour of the reflective surfaces with the time of day.
