Overlaying:

Overlaid with resin impregnated film which is hot-pressed using specialized press plates. Depending on the application, films impregnated with modified phenolic or melamine resins can be applied and performance further enhanced with multiple overlays.

The new Riga Pattern+ overlay provides a decorative, textured appearance. The surface resists abrasion, commonly used chemicals, and is weather and moisture resistant. It can be easily cleaned with water or steam. The reverse side is smooth, overlaid with resin impregnated film. Riga Wood experts will advise the most appropriate overlay depending on the end use.
