Although when you are sold this product you're told it resembles real wood and that is water resistant. What they don't tell you is that it ISN'T waterproof, when water evades the moisture barrier (Plastic Backing of thin pad) at the bottom of the Laminate Free Floating Plank, it simply will not dry. If prolonged it becomes a hotspot for microbial growth. The only way to fully remediate is to remove material and apply dehumidification and air movement to the surrounding wall cavities and base flooring (Concrete/Subfloors).

A Chinese buffet restaurant in a busy shopping plaza has a heavy traffic flow. When it came to the cleaning process we had to go a step further and get some power scrub cleaning in to break through the tough greasy traffic areas and pull up any heavy caked down dirt.
