Now the price of China laminate flooring is a big headache for many buyers and sellers from whatever domestic market or oversea market: It continues to go up too rapidly.

For example: A customer talked with a manufacturer about prices several months ago. Now the customer is ready to place an order with the manufacturer and they haven’t talked about the price in the several months. But the manufacturer can’t offer the customer with the previous prices: He increases the price a great deal! Then the customer is very upset with this. He turns to other manufacturers. To his disappointment, he finds that all the manufacturers have increased the price a great deal. The previous price is absolutely not available now.

There are several reasons for the markup:

1. The exchange rate of RMB continues to appreciate rapidly, which means now more dollars need to be paid for the goods of the same RMB value.

2. The materials, especially the support material, for laminate flooring become more and more expensive in China. The price of laminate flooring in China continues to go up accordingly.

3. The labor becomes more expensive than before in China. Even the transport cost becomes more expensive due to the markup of gasoline in China.
