The half-millimetre everybody actually sees.

Laminate is the thinnest layer in the whole build and the only one anyone comments on. We hold a large sample library — come and look at it in daylight rather than choosing from a phone screen, because colour on a screen lies. Pressing is done in-house, which is why our edges do not lift.
