What is the difference between laminate and PVC flooring?

 
-- Laminate is made up of several layers of compressed wood, but the PVC flooring is made of plastic. The laminate thickness is more than PVC, and it is a better heat and sound insulation because of the use of foam below it.
 
-- Laminate is more resistant to water in comparison to parquet, but it is not completely waterproof. Instead, the PVC is completely water resistant and can be washed with water safely. It is therefore very suitable for use in damp environments like the kitchen. The price of laminate is higher than PVC, and it is therefore more beautiful.
 
-- PVC flooring is attached with adhesive to the floor the same as a parquet. As a result, they both damage the floor and cannot be used for several times. While we mentioned before, laminate can be used several times and do not damage the bottom layers due to the lack of adhesive used for connection.
