Laminate parquet has spent decades carving out a solid place in the flooring market. It's no coincidence: it combines a competitive price with a look that has improved dramatically in recent years.
In this article we take a detailed look at the trends shaping laminate parquet this year, what you should consider before choosing a specific model and how to make the most of this type of flooring.
What defines new-generation laminate parquet?
Today's laminates offer textures synchronised with the grain, more realistic bevels and higher usage classes, bringing them ever closer to natural wood in both look and durability.
The parquet trends shaping 2026
Long, wide planks, light natural tones, matte finishes and herringbone patterns continue to gain ground in both homes and commercial spaces.
What should you consider before buying?
The use of the room, the laminate's AC class, acoustic insulation and installation quality are the factors that most influence the final result.
Laminate or vinyl? A question worth asking
Each material has its strengths: laminate stands out for its hardness and wood-like look; vinyl, for its water resistance. At Payresa we advise you with no obligation to help you choose the most suitable option for your project.
