Laminate Flooring in Malaysia — Stylish, Durable & Affordable Wood Flooring for Every Home

Laminate Flooring is one of Malaysia’s most popular modern flooring choices — offering the beauty of real wood with the durability, water resistance and practicality needed for our tropical climate. Whether you’re renovating a landed home, upgrading a condo, refreshing a shop, or doing a commercial interior, laminate flooring gives you the perfect blend of comfort, strength, affordability and natural design.
With Primelay’s First Choice and Kayu Plus laminate series, you get premium AC4-grade durability, water-resistant hybrid cores, and European-standard safety — all in stunning wood designs.

What is Laminate Flooring?

Laminate flooring is a multi-layer engineered wood flooring designed to mimic the look and feel of natural timber while providing superior durability, scratch resistance, and ease of installation. Built using a high-density wood core + decorative layer + AC4 wear layer, laminate flooring gives you a strong and stable surface that is suitable for Malaysian homes, offices, shops, and commercial interiors.
Unlike solid wood, laminate flooring is:

More affordable
More stable in humidity
More resistant to wear and scratches
Easier and faster to install
Low maintenance

This makes it ideal for homeowners who want the warmth of wood without the high cost or hassle.

All our laminate floors come with AC4 wear rating, meaning they are tested to survive:

Heavy foot traffic
Furniture movement
Scratches from pets
Daily wear and tear
Long-term use in commercial spaces

AC4 = Strong enough for shopping areas, offices, and active homes, yet still comfortable for everyday living.

Water Resistance Levels in Laminate

Laminate flooring is available in different water-protection levels:

Standard Laminate:

✔ Resistant to minor spills
✔ Not suitable for wet areas

Hybrid Laminate (First Choice 5mm):

✔ 5-Star moisture resistance
✔ Better protection against tropical humidity
✔ Suitable for dining, bedrooms, living rooms

Black-Core Hybrid Laminate (Kayu Plus 8mm):

✔ Maximum moisture resistance
✔ Best for long-term humidity control

Benefits:

Fast installation (DIY-friendly)
No glue, no nails
Secure locking edges prevent gaps
Smooth, flat, stable finish
Easy to replace individual planks if needed

This makes the flooring ideal for renovation projects where speed & cleanliness matter.

What makes it look like real wood?

Wood grain embossed textures
Deep and subtle pores matching real timber
Matte natural finish (not glossy artificial shine)
Painted bevel edges for realism
European-grade HD film layer

This combination gives your home the warmth of natural timber — without the high price or maintenance of solid wood.

Scratch & Impact Resistance (Pet-Friendly)

Laminate flooring is well-known for its exceptional scratch resistance, thanks to the AC4 wear layer and tough melamine resin top coat.

Ideal for:

Homes with pets
Active children
High-traffic living rooms
Retail and small commercial spaces

The surface is strong enough to withstand pet claws, moving chairs, toys, and daily wear, making it one of the most durable choices at this price level.

Environment & Indoor Air Safety

All Primelay laminate flooring complies with the E1 Formaldehyde Emission Standard, which is Europe’s safety benchmark for indoor materials.

Why E1 Matters:

Low VOC emissions
Safer indoor air quality
Reduced chemical odors
Suitable for homes with children and elderly
Certified healthier living environment

E1 means the flooring emits almost zero harmful chemicals, making it a great choice for homes focused on well-being.

Slip Resistance

Your laminate flooring comes with certified safety standards.

Slip Resistance:
Slip resistance of µ ≥ 0.5 ensures excellent footing even in humid Malaysian environments.

Why this matters:

Safer for elderly and children
Better traction in living rooms
Reduced risk of slipping from socks, smooth footwear, or moisture
Ideal for condos & high-rise homes

A safe home starts with safe flooring — and our laminate flooring delivers it.

Laminate Flooring Installation Method

Installation Steps

Acclimatize planks 24–48 hours in room temperature
Ensure subfloor is clean, dry & level
Install plastic sheet + underlay
Start laying planks from the left corner
Lock planks at 30–45° angle
Maintain 10–12mm expansion gap around walls
Use a tapping block for tight joints
Finish with skirtings & trims

Fast Installation:

No glue
No nails
No dust
No noisy cutting inside rooms
Ideal for quick renovations, rental units, and occupied homes.

Subfloor Requirements & Preparation

A smooth subfloor ensures long-term stability and prevents problems like gaps or movement.

Suitable Subfloors:

Cement / concrete
Existing tiles
Smooth plywood
Existing laminate (if level and stable)

Subfloor Checklist:

Levelness: Within 3mm over 3ft
Clean & free from dust
No moisture seepage
No loose tiles or hollow sounds
No cracks or depressions (must be repaired)

When Self-Leveling is Needed:

Uneven surfaces
Old cement patches
Slope areas
Tile height variations

Underlay Selection Guide

Underlay is essential for comfort, sound reduction, and moisture protection.

Types of Underlay:

Standard Foam Underlay

Best for budget installations
Suitable for bedrooms & condos

Acoustic Underlay

Excellent for high-rise units
Reduces footstep noise
Strata-compliant in many condos
Moisture Barrier Underlay
Adds extra protection against humidity
Ideal for ground-floor homes

Why Underlay Matters:

Quieter footsteps
Softer walking experience
Adds insulation
Improves locking system stability
Prevents moisture-related damage

Expansion Gap Requirements

Laminate flooring is a floating floor — meaning it expands and contracts with temperature and humidity. This makes expansion gaps extremely important.

Rules for Expansion Gaps:

10–12mm gap around all walls
Use spacers during installation
Never install laminate touching the wall
Always remove skirtings before installation
For rooms above 12m length, use T-profiles

Why Expansion Gaps Are Critical:

Prevents floor lifting
Prevents buckling
Ensures stability in tropical climate
Protects the click-lock joints

Cleaning & Maintenance

Laminate flooring is extremely easy to maintain — no waxing, polishing, or varnishing needed.

Daily Care	Avoid	Protect	Long-Term Benefits
Sweep or vacuum regularly	Excessive water	Furniture felt pads	Stays beautiful for years
Use a slightly damp mop	Harsh chemicals	Doormats at entrances	No yellowing / no fading indoors
Clean spills immediately	Steam mops & Abrasive scrub pads	Trim pet nails	No expensive maintenance costs

Moisture & Sunlight Protection

Laminate flooring performs best when moisture and sunlight exposure are controlled.

Moisture Protection Tips:

Clean spills immediately
Avoid mopping with soaked cloths
Use a moisture barrier underlay
Ensure proper room ventilation

Sunlight Protection

Use curtains or blinds
Avoid rubber-backed mats (can cause discoloration)
Choose hybrid laminate for better UV resistance

Benefits

Prevents fading
Prevents swelling
Prevents plank deformation

FAQs

What is laminate flooring and how does it work?

Laminate flooring is a multi-layer engineered wood flooring made from a high-density core, HD decorative film, and an AC-rated wear layer. It offers the natural look of wood with higher durability, scratch resistance, and easy installation.

Is laminate flooring good for Malaysian homes?

Yes. Laminate flooring is ideal for Malaysian homes because it handles humidity, daily wear, and tropical temperatures better than solid wood. It is also more affordable, comfortable, and easier to maintain.

What is the difference between 5mm and 8mm laminate flooring?

5mm Hybrid Laminate: Lighter, more flexible, moisture-resistant hybrid core, suitable for homes.

8mm Laminate: Stronger, quieter, more stable, and ideal for high-traffic areas & condos.

Is laminate flooring waterproof?

Standard laminate is water-resistant, not fully waterproof.
Hybrid versions like First Choice 5mm and Kayu Plus 8mm Black Core offer enhanced moisture protection suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, and dining areas.

Can laminate flooring be used in kitchens?

Laminate can be used in dry kitchens, but avoid wet kitchen areas with constant water exposure. For full waterproofing, SPC flooring is better.

Is laminate flooring scratch-resistant?

Yes. AC4 laminate flooring has high scratch resistance suitable for pets, high heels, chairs, and daily use.

How long does laminate flooring last?

With proper care, laminate flooring can last 10–20 years, depending on the thickness (5mm or 8mm), AC rating, and daily usage.

Can laminate flooring be installed on tiles?

Yes. As long as tiles are level, firmly bonded, and not hollow, laminate can be installed directly over them using underlay.

How to clean and maintain laminate flooring?

Sweep or vacuum regularly
Use a damp—but not wet—mop
Clean spills immediately
Avoid harsh chemicals and steam mops

Does laminate flooring fade in sunlight?

Laminate flooring is resistant to indoor lighting but may fade under direct harsh sunlight. Use curtains or blinds to reduce UV exposure.

Can laminate flooring be used in condominiums?

Yes. Laminate is ideal for condos due to its warm feel, quick installation, lightweight structure, and acoustic underlay options.

What is AC4 laminate flooring?

AC4 laminate flooring is a commercial-grade durability rating, meaning it resists wear, scratches, and heavy foot traffic. Perfect for homes and light commercial areas.
