HPL: Basic Facts and Features
  • High Pressure Laminate is created by saturating multiple layers of kraft paper with resin, placing a layer of décor paper on top, and fusing it all together using heat and pressure 
  • The curing process transforms the resin into a plastic, converting the paper into a rigid laminated sheet
  • High Pressure Laminating is excellent for high impact surface applications
