How to dispose of laminate? Can laminate be recycled or burned?
Disposal of laminate is absolutely unproblematic. Left over laying materials and other parts or old floorings can be disposed of in the normal domestic waste. Complete, discarded floors on the other hand should be taken directly to the landfill site or local tip. As laminate floorings consist of 80 percent wood they can safely be burned or incinerated just like other wood products. Thanks to new technical processes, laminate floorings are even recyclable. 85 percent of the mass of laminate flooring can be added back into the manufacturing process in the form of wood chips or fibres.
