What is Compact Laminates?
Fire-resistant, Corrosion-resistant, Waterproof, High Strength, Colorful and Easy To Clean.
Compact laminate is a type of HPL (High-Pressure Laminate), which is thicker, tighter, and stronger than ordinary HPL. The Compact Board is made of thermosetting resin-impregnated paper under high pressure.
Its surface color and texture are diverse and widely used in the field of decoration.
Structure
HPL, the full name of High-Pressure Laminate, is composed of multiple layers of materials:
- the outer layer is decorative colored paper containing melamine resin.
- and the inner layer is multiple layers of black or brown kraft paper impregnated with phenolic resin.
