Four layers of material are pressed together to make floor protection roll. The four layers are meant to make the floor protection roll for parquet last longer and protect it from moisture and wear. A typical piece of floor protection roll will have the following:

The layer on the back. Most floor protection roll for parquets have melamine as the backing layer. Melamine is a strong material that gives the parquet structure and support and helps it resist moisture.

The heart. Most floor protection roll have a core layer of high-density fiberboard, a composite material made from wood waste. Most of the time, up to 70% of the weight of a piece of floor protection roll is made up of high-density fiberboard.

The part that looks nice. The decorative layer on top of the core layer gives the floor protection roll the look of a wooden board or, in some cases, stone. Often, a photo printed on paper is used as the decorative layer.

The layer that gets worn down. The last layer is the wear layer, which helps keep the floor protection roll for parquet from getting worn down. The surface would get scratched and worn down without this top coat. Most of the time, melamine and aluminum oxide makes the decorative layer.

"Floating flooring" is another name for floor protection roll for parquet. It can be put down on top of a concrete screed, tile, or wood that is already there. Most of the time, carpet is the only type of floor covering that you shouldn't put floor protection roll over. The carpet is too soft. It won't give the floor protection roll the support it needs to stay together.

When being put together, the floor protection roll for parquet sticks to itself, not the floor. Some types of floor protection roll need to be glued, but most are joined with tongue-and-groove joints on the sides. This is called a "click-fit" system because the tongue-and-groove joints don't need to stick to the surface below them; instead, they fit together like puzzle pieces.

Often, an insulating underlayment is put down before the floor protection roll for parquet to rest on this. Usually made of foam, the floor protection roll feels softer and more comfortable walking on it. The base also helps to block out more sound.
