Unilin and Valinge are the earliest and most well-known lock patent holders, in 1996 Valinge partnered with Alloc to release the world's first lock flooring before Quickstep, and in 2012, two brother brands, Alloc in Norway and Berry Flooring in Belgium, merged to form the current Berryalloc. As a member of the EPLF, Berryalloc also has a place in the camp of Europe's first-line laminate flooring brands.
Berryalloc's laminate flooring can be divided into two product lines, DPL laminate flooring, which is relatively suitable for residential use, and HPL laminate flooring, which is relatively suitable for high-traffic areas. DPL is produced in Belgium, and most brands such as Kuaibu are the same, and the mainstream products are between Class 32-33. HPL is produced in Norway and has a distinctive characteristic, which is very reliable because all its products are Class 33 or Class 34. It is used in some areas with high use intensity, and there will be no durability problems.
However, it has to be said that Class34/AC6 laminate flooring is extremely rare on the market, and this grade is more set for some extremely high-strength commercial places, and the necessity of household use is indeed not too high. It is worth mentioning that although Berryalloc's main agent in China is Jingang Bollin, it only sells DPL series products. The agent of Class33/AC5 and Class34/AC6 HPL laminate flooring is Bimei, and sells under the brand name of its predecessor, Alloc.
In terms of specifications, Berryalloc's DPL laminate flooring is covered with wide versions, narrow boards, and popular large-size models of more than 2m, and the edge treatment has also been subdivided, with no chamfering, long side chamfering (2V), and four-sided chamfering (4V) covered, and in general, the choice space is relatively large. In addition, we have also developed a marine series of waterproof flooring from brands such as Quickwalk, which can be used in relatively humid spaces.
Berryalloc's laminate flooring positioning has different heights, the most basic 8mm, Class32 models, the price is between 200-300 yuan, such as the Luofu series without chamfering, the classical series, the 2V chamfered natural series, etc. are in this range. The Cool series has been thickened to 9mm, and the price has been increased to more than 300 yuan per square meter. As for the higher-positioned large-size EGGER series and the 11mm Imperial series, the price per square meter is about 400 yuan.
The herringbone Chateau series is worth talking about separately, the herringbone is a very popular flooring style in recent years, the laying effect resembles a column of staggered herringbones, and the appearance effect is relatively good. It should be noted that although herringbone flooring looks no different from ordinary flooring, because it is symmetrically spliced, two specifications with opposite locks protruding in opposite directions are required to complete the paving, so ordinary flooring cannot achieve this kind of paving effect.
As for the HPL series represented by Feimei, the current flagship store price is mostly around 500 yuan, but especially its AC6 products, the price is indeed too high. We do not recommend residential use unless there is an extreme need for intensity.
