Abstract: A parquet board with a groove and tongue edge profile comprising a projecting tongue (14) on at least one edge of each parquet board (10,12) and a receding groove (16) on at least one opposite edge of the parquet board. The top edge of the tongue (14) is provided with a projecting locking lip (24) running in the longitudinal direction of the tongue, and there is a corresponding locking recess (26) running in the longitudinal direction of the groove in the bottom edge of the groove-boundary-forming top groove cheek (28).

Abstract: A floor plank, especially a multi-layer, pressed laminate panel, comprises a decorative paper (12) in the top walked-on layer, which is impregnated with an aminoplastic resin or similar. Particles of an electrically conducting material are applied to the back of the decorative paper (12).

Abstract: A tool and method for installing building panels, particularly flooring planks is described. The tool is shaped with an arcuate outer surface and is provided with a groove which can be placed over the edge of the floor planks. The tool and method facilitate the installation of the planks by one person.

Abstract: A floor tile, in particular a laminate panel, parquet element, veneer floor element, ready-to-lay parquet element or such like comprises an edge profile on at least two opposite edges in the form of a modified groove and tongue joint for the purpose of connecting adjacent tiles, with a coincident arrangement consisting of one groove and one tongue on each of at least two edges, of which the tongue on one edge of a first tile and the groove in an associated edge of a second tile rise obliquely upwards from the bottom of the tile. The edge profiles are contrived directly in the support material of the floor tile, the groove in the first tile is disposed directly above its tongue and the lower wall of this groove falls off towards the back end of the groove by the same degree as the tongue on the first tile rises upwards.

Abstract: The invention relates to an antistatic floor covering, especially a laminate floor with a counteracting coating on the back and/or with a damping substrate made from a binding agent plus fillers which is, or can be, attached to the back of the floor covering in an at least partial manner.

Abstract: A floorboard, in particular a laminate panel, parquet element or such like, made from a derived timber product, in particular a highly compressed medium or high-density fiberboard, has peripheral edges which are connected with the edges of adjacent boards. These edges are provided with an edge impregnation which serves in the first instance to prevent moisture from penetrating into the board. The edge impregnation can consist of, or contain, a pest control agent.

Abstract: A floor tile, in particular a laminate panel, parquet element, veneer floor element, ready-to-lay parquet element or such like comprises an edge profile on at least two opposite edges in the form of a modified groove and tongue joint for the purpose of connecting adjacent tiles, with a coincident arrangement consisting of one groove (22,122,26,126) and one tongue (20,120,30,130) on each of at least two edges, of which the tongue on one edge of a first tile and the groove in an associated edge of a second tile rise obliquely upwards from the bottom of the tile. The edge profiles are contrived directly in the support material of the floor tile, the groove (26,126) in the first tile is disposed directly above its tongue (20,120) and the lower wall of this groove falls off towards the back end (28,128) of the groove by the same degree as the tongue (20,120) on the first tile rises upwards.
