Chipboard Egger. Reviews

Wood chipboards have a number of advantages. But despite this, many consumers argue that laminated chipboard is harmful to health. They associate this with supposedly prominent ones, but this is far from being the case. Chipboard is an environmentally friendly material.

When choosing chipboard, give preference to the material that is produced directly by the Austrian company Egger. According to popular reviews, such material is much superior in quality to goods manufactured at other manufacturing plants. Naturally, the price of such products will be higher than those produced in Russia. But the choice always remains with the buyer.

Thus, laminated boards, combined boards, and edges that are ideally suited in terms of pattern and texture can always be matched to lined boards. Egger provides customers with a similar decoration for all types of products. Among the assortment of the company you can always find several options for decors and structures that are in perfect harmony with each other.

Egger is a large European company specializing in the production of laminate flooring and many other finishing materials. The company's factories are located in Austria, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Russia and other European countries. Experts say that the total annual production of Egger-branded laminate is more than 30 million m2. Egger laminate can boast of high European quality, reliability, durability, variety of textures and decors.

Laminated floors of this manufacturer have been presented on the domestic market for more than 15 years. They are in consistently high demand among individuals and legal entities, because the laminate produced by Europeans is excellent for laying in residential premises, public buildings, and the commercial sector.

It is important to note that the company is engaged in the production of laminates of 32 and 33 wear resistance classes, which are exactly designed for use in residential premises of any type and in commercial areas with low and medium floor loads.

Modern manufacturing technologies using environmentally friendly raw materials and safe formulations, coupled with innovative high-precision equipment, allow Egger to produce high-quality laminate with a guaranteed service life of more than 15 years. All manufactured models have increased resistance to moisture from the outside and inside, as well as from the ends and the interlock.

Egger laminate is so safe and hygienic that it meets all international and domestic sanitary and epidemiological standards, so it can be installed in medical and childcare facilities. The manufacturer's laminated floors have the Blue Angel environmental certificate.

Egger has been operating on the European market for a long time, which allows it to dictate the fashion for certain floor coverings, create trends and introduce innovative solutions in laminate production technology. Key features of these laminate flooring include:

  • Panel production technologies are protected by trade secrets. Therefore, the product is guaranteed not to be counterfeited. Small producers will also not be able to produce products similar to the Egger;
  • The geometry of the laminate boards is so well processed and adjusted on high-precision equipment that after laying, if it was done by professionals, there are no gaps between the individual panels;
  • The panels featured in the Egger collections today feature the patented, unique JUSTclic locking system. Due to this, any person, even without much experience in carrying out installation work, can potentially quickly lay a laminate in any room. The original locking system is reliable, durable, not subject to mechanical stress (unlike analogues, the connection will not break if the panel is bent);
  • Egger laminate is considered one of the best on the market in terms of imitation of wood species, tiles and other materials. After laying, even up close it will be difficult to make out what is under your feet - a laminate flooring or a real tree. This is achieved through the use of a special technology that provides for special processing of the protective and decorative layers of the panel. The upper resin layer in a number of collections has a relief surface, which makes the imitation of wood more natural.

Structure

Laminate from Egger, like other manufacturers, consists of 4 main layers:

  1. The top layer is protective. Its main function is to protect the surface from moisture and mechanical loads of various kinds. The thickness and specification of this layer determines the wear resistance and class of the laminate as a whole.
  2. decorative layer. It is made from special high-quality paper on which the drawing is applied. The models of this manufacturer imitate a variety of wood species (from acacia to ash), as well as natural stone and designer parquet.
  3. The main layer, presented in the form of an HDF-slab. This is a high-density base that determines the main characteristics of the floor covering, its durability and resistance to moisture. In class 32 and 33 laminate, a board with a density of more than 800 kg/m3 is used.
  4. The bottom layer is stabilizing. This layer is responsible for the comfort of the floor covering, protection against moisture and some specific indicators. In a number of Egger collections, the lower layer provides for additional protection against moisture - the Silenzio substrate, the main function of which is not only to increase moisture resistance, but also to ensure the proper level of sound insulation. No wonder Egger laminate is considered one of the best on the market in terms of sound insulation.

Variety of models

Egger laminate flooring models are so diverse that people who can’t decide on a laminate for a long time find something suitable in the assortment of this manufacturer.

All models from the Austrian company on the market can be classified according to several criteria:

    1. Style. Many manufacturers produce laminate in the same style, so the panels often do not differ from one another (only by shade). Egger, in turn, offers models made in 4 main styles: Authentic style, Vintage, Natural style, Modern. This approach allows you to choose a laminated coating for a specific interior design of a residential building, office or cafe.

  1. The foundation. It is known that HDF-plate acts as the basis in the laminate, but each manufacturer makes it in its own way. Egger offers panels with two core board types: Quell Stopp Plus and Aqua Stop. If Quell Stopp Plus is a standard option with a beautiful name, then models marked Aqua Plus are designed for use in rooms with high humidity, as well as in places where floors are periodically exposed to a large amount of various liquids.
  2. Chamfer. For Egger models, the chamfer can be double-sided or four-sided. But you can find options with a completely missing chamfer.
  3. wear class. It has already been said above that the manufacturer produces a laminate of 32 and 33 wear resistance classes. If you are offered Egger coatings of 31 or 34 wear resistance classes in a store, you should know that this is a hoax.
  4. Guarantee period. Depending on the collection, specific model and operating conditions of the laminate, the warranty period on the panel can be 15, 20, 25 years.
  5. Panel thickness. Even decors from the same collection can vary considerably in thickness. The laminate is presented with the following indicators: 7, 8, 9, 11 mm.
  6. panel format. Egger manufactures laminate flooring in the following individual board sizes: Classic, Medium, Long, Large, Kingsize.

Scope of use

32 and 33 classes of laminate in the modern market are the most popular. That is why Egger laminate can be used in a wide range of spaces:

  • City apartments and country houses. With domestic use of the laminate, you can get the maximum possible life of the laminated coating (from 15 to 30 years), as well as an extended warranty from the manufacturer;
  • Office premises, conference rooms, reception rooms, workrooms. In the commercial sector, class 32 and 33 laminate is recommended to be used only in those rooms where there is a low level of floor load and average traffic;
  • Catering establishments, service enterprises, shops, etc. The manufacturer allows laying laminate in such premises, however, the service life of the coating can be reduced to 10-15 years. During this time, the laminated floor is guaranteed not to lose its appearance and basic performance.

Certificates


Conclusion

Egger laminate flooring is one of the best on the market today. Despite the excellent performance, test results and a wide range of operation, the presented models have a fairly affordable price (middle price category). This allows the manufacturer to find many customers among private and corporate consumers.

- half a century of history in the production of innovative flooring

Egger began its development in 1961 - from the moment it was founded in Austria, as a small family business for the production of chipboard. Further development allowed the opening of several production associations throughout Europe, specializing in the manufacture of various floor materials, including laminated parquet. Subsequently, a modern laminate manufacturing plant was opened in Russia, which makes it possible to produce competitive products with an excellent level of quality.

Features of Egger laminated parquet, as well as its competitive advantages

Egger laminate has earned high popularity among consumers due to its excellent functionality, durability and unique design that mimics natural materials exactly. This allows these products to be among the most popular in the domestic and European markets.

Each lamella of the presented flooring consists of several layers that perform a specific function. The bottom - the main layer, provides the material with high stability and structural strength, and a special moisture-resistant impregnation allows you to reliably withstand an increased level of humidity. The formulation of this composition is a unique development of the company and is protected by patent law.

The decorative layer, perfectly reproducing the pattern and relief of natural wood, makes such a coating almost indistinguishable from a massive board or parquet. This is achieved through the use of a special technology of synchronous superposition of the surface structure and the required decor. For such “embossing”, computerized equipment is used, which allows perfectly precise control of all stages of the technological process.

The top protective coating allows the laminate to reliably resist various mechanical damage and withstand high physical exertion. This predetermines the possibility of its use for various public and even industrial premises, where there are special requirements for the wear resistance of the materials used.

One of the unique varieties of Egger laminated parquet is the exclusive one, which is resistant to the negative effects of high levels of humidity or direct contact of the coating with water. This flooring material will be an ideal choice for flooring in kitchens, bathrooms, as well as in corridors and halls of public premises.

Choosing a laminate from this manufacturer, you can take advantage of the following advantages of the specified flooring:

  • the ability to choose the best option for laminated parquet, taking into account the specifics of the operation of the equipped premises;
  • purchase an environmentally friendly material that is almost entirely made from natural ingredients;
  • significantly simplify the installation procedure thanks to the special locking technology UNI fit.
