What is the difference between laminate and vinyl flooring?

Both laminate and vinyl flooring are man-made products, available in a variety of colors and styles. Vinyl is constructed from different layers of PVC with a printed PVC film layer and a protective top wear layer. Laminate is comprised of resin impregnated paper backing, high-density fiberboard core, a photographic paper film and protective wear layer on top. We offer water-proof options for vinyl and water-resistant and waterproof options for laminate in a variety of textures and colors.
