Is not bcz the board soak inside the water then it will lose the termite proof chemical, is juz that wood is a food for termite. But before termite attack your board, they will first choose the softer wood which is skirting and ur furniture. Once around that area the softer wood is finished, termite will go for harder wood like ur Laminate floor board. If you want water proof products with wood grain design you have option like vinyl or pvc Flooring,  wpc Flooring,  wood design tile or solid wood. Personally I dun recommend pvc or plastic Flooring for residential use due plastic and pvc have degradation problem which cause cancer or when during fire and it got burned it will release life hazard gas.
