Castor chairs are an indentation problem, not an abrasion one
Hard castors concentrate load into a small contact patch. Core gauge and castor pads matter more here than wear layer.

What actually decides it
Conditioned space is laminate territory
If the floor will never see standing water, HDF laminate performs and costs less. Split the specification by area rather than by price alone.
Open-plan means impact sound travels
The acoustic backing is the cheapest part of the answer to a noise complaint.
Fit-outs run to a fixed programme
Glueless click installs faster than glue-down, and large formats install faster than small ones.
