What does the AC rating mean for laminate flooring?

The AC rating (Abrasion Class) is a measure of laminate flooring’s durability and resistance to wear. It ranges from AC1 to AC5:

AC3: Suitable for domestic use (living rooms, bedrooms)
AC4: Ideal for high-traffic homes and light commercial use
AC5: Tough enough for busy shops or office spaces
Choosing a higher AC-rated floor ensures your laminate can stand up to heavy footfall, children, or pets. Explore our AC4 and AC5 laminate flooring for stylish, hard-wearing options.
