What is HDF AC5 Floating Flooring?
Let’s break it down:
HDF stands for High-Density Fiberboard, known for its superior strength and resistance to moisture.
AC5 is a European abrasion rating, meaning this floor can handle commercial-grade foot traffic without scratching or fading.
Floating refers to the installation method—click-lock boards that don’t require glue or nails, making setup quick and clean.
💬 "We installed HDF AC5 floating flooring in our busy café. It’s been six months of spills, dragging chairs, and constant foot traffic—and it still looks brand new."
— Samantha H., Café Owner
