1. Flooring material comprising board shaped floor elements with a rectangular oblong shape and a thickness of between 5 and 15 millimeters, the floor elements made of a base material and comprising edges, a lower side and a decorative upper surface, the floor elements comprising a core to which an upper decorative layer has been applied, the decorative upper surface comprising the upper decorative layer, wherein the upper decorative layer comprises a decorative paper impregnated with melamine-formaldehyde resin,
wherein the flooring material further comprises joining profiles, the joining profiles being separate from the base material of the floor element, wherein the edges and joining profiles allow for two of the floor elements to become mutually fixed adjacent to each other at their respective adjacent edges, such that a horizontal fixation as well as vertical fixation is effective, wherein the horizontal fixation prevents moving apart of the adjacent floor elements in a horizontal direction when in an installed configuration, wherein the respective adjacent edges comprise each a respective groove, the respective grooves being positioned at least partially opposite each other and defining a common cavity, wherein the vertical fixation is obtained through at least one of the joining profiles, the at least one of the joining profiles being located in the cavity and being shorter than the respective adjacent edges, wherein the at least one of the joining profiles is not involved in the horizontal fixation.
