VND 10.000.000 (Ten million VND). Meanwhile, 99% wood floor industrial termite resistance. What gives Robina Laminate flooring its termite resistance?
99% of laminate flooring is NOT termite resistant
The wood core of laminate flooring is formed by taking advantage of natural wood chips. The appearance of this flooring material reduces the state of logging in the world. Under the development of science and technology, the compressibility of the wood core is increasingly improved. Up to now, most laminate flooring uses HDF (high density fiberboard) wood core.

As shown in the illustration, in addition to the wood core, the flooring is also equipped with a leveling base, decorative grain and surface protection coating. The locking jaws are used to assemble the boards manufactured directly on the wood core. From the very beginning, termites cannot attack from the surface or base of the board. The location termites choose to attack first is the keyhole.

The main structural component of laminate flooring is natural wood, so 99% of termites eat wood floors.

Why is Robina laminate flooring anti-termite?
The termite resistance of Robina laminate flooring comes from a combination of high technology and quality wood core.
The input wood source is naturally resistant to termites.
Robina Laminate Flooring Laminate flooring imported directly from Robina Flooring factory - the leading Laminate flooring factory in Southeast Asia located in Malaysia. Their input material is tropical hardwood, so it is famous for its outstanding resistance to termites. In order to protect the precious log resource, the factory only produces cut (re-used) panels of wood in the plantation area.

The termite resistance of tropical hardwoods
Solid wood core
It is the high humidity and warm temperatures of the tropical environment that promote plant growth. Not stopping there, the plants also compete with each other for resources. The rapid development has made wood density of tropical hardwoods is higher, providing better termite resistance than softwoods.
Wood density is the mass of wood in a unit volume. It measures how tight and concentrated the wood fibers are in the tree. The higher the wood density, the heavier the wood and the more wood fibers per unit volume.
High Lignin Content
Lignin is an organic component in wood and tropical hardwoods that are often high in lignin. Lignin has anti-termite and anti-mildew properties, which increase the wood's resistance to termites.
Good moisture resistance
The combination of high wood density, complex wood cell structure and not low lignin content makes tropical hardwoods moisture resistant. That's not to mention the tropical area is home to oilseed trees, which have oils that limit water penetration - rot resistant - have good weather resistance.
Natural termite repellent available in wood
Termites are not interested in tropical trees because some types carry substances such as tannins, oleoresin, etc. anti-bacterial, anti-termite, anti-insect substances.
Bitter resin
Resin is a natural substance produced by plants to protect themselves from attack by insects and termites. Some tropical hardwoods contain bitter resin, which has anti-termite properties.

Application of high technology in the production process
Accompanying with quality wood core is a production line applying modern technology. Robina anti-termite laminate flooring not only applies the technology of Witex corporation (Germany) but also with the participation of Robin Group (Singapore). The wooden planks are formed by the direct pressure laminate method (Direct Pressure Laminate) as standard EN 13329: 2017.

In particular, the keyhole - where termites are most likely to attack, has been protected by technology by Robina Flooring factory VEPS - Vacuum Edge Protection System, make sure the locking hem is not easy to get wet. At the same time, the edge of the hammock is also sophisticatedly designed, with high bonding ability, leaving no gaps for termites to attack.

Based only on wood core and technology, Robina is a termite-proof laminate flooring that is safe for health. Each part is strictly tested before being distributed to the market. As the exclusive distributor of Robina laminate flooring in Vietnam, Kosmos warehouse easily issues documents proving product quality.

Robina laminate flooring complies with European standards (EN717-1), low formaldehyde emissions 0.1ppm. At the same time, flooring is also available termite resistant wooden floor swelling due to water ≤18%. In particular, the Robina Aqua waterproof floor line has swelling <8%. To better understand the specifications of Robina laminate flooring above, you can refer to Detailed specifications of Robina laminate flooring.
Is Robina termite resistant laminate flooring safe or not?
Ms. Jojo Yap - representative of Robina Flooring factory said: "Raw materials for producing Robina wooden floors are collected from planted forests in Malaysia. They are all tropical trees, oily, waterproof, bitter sap and hard wood. Combined with special techniques in Malaysia, Robina flooring has natural anti-termite properties, without the need for chemical intervention."

Robina anti-termite laminate flooring is even more proud of owning many safety and environmental certifications from many famous measurement units in the world.
Proven safety specifications and a range of certifications from the above testing agency can clear doubts that Robina's termite resistance comes from the impregnation.
In terms of science, the shelf life of termites is quite low (only 1-2 years) and the smell is very pungent. Impregnation does not make wooden floors resistant to long term termites.
In terms of other aspects, some types of flooring with high impurity content (may contain Sodium Fluoride Silicate, Boric Acid, Copper sulfate, additives, ...) emit strong odors such as Chinese wooden floors, Vietnamese quality wooden floors. poor, still not able to resist the attack of termites.
