High Pressure Laminate - MONOCHROM VIBRATION
Verified by manufacturer 6 months ago
High pressure laminate (HPL) covering, available with a through-colour core.
Application
Suitable for horizontal and vertical surfaces in high traffic areas for:
- Interior design projects;
- Bespoke furniture;
- Worktops/ countertops;
- Wall cladding;
- Edging to create a uniform finish.
Manufacturer recommends the use of polyvinyl acetate (PVAC) glue.
When hollowing out, allow a minimum 5 mm radius for reflex angles.
Description
High pressure laminate (HPL) covering, available with a through-colour core, with Sanitized® grade antibacterial coating applied.
Features and benefits:
- Robust and multi-purpose.
- The core is colour coordinated with the decorative surface to provide a solid effect.
- Provides a high level of resistance to external stress (abrasion, impacts, cracks, scratches, moisture, and heat up to 180°C). Also resistant to the damage caused by cigarette burns, chemical and household products.
- Non-porous surface.
- Good colourfastness when placed under artificial light.
- Minimal maintenance required - easy to clean.
- Food safe (IANESCO approved).
- Cold bendable.
- Silver ion-treated, antibacterial Sanitized® grade - consult manufacturer for details.
- Monobloc effect, with no visible joints.
- Can be bonded to a number of different substrates.
- Available in a wide range of monochrome decors.
- Low formaldehyde emissions (E1) and Greenguard gold certified.
- Conforms to EN 438.
Technical characteristics:
- Straightness tolerance (to EN 438-2-7): ≤1.5 mm/m.

- Antibacterial properties (to JIS Z 2801): >99.9% reduction.
Sanitized coating:
Antibacterial silver ions integrated into the material which are activated on contact with humidity. Suitable for wall coverings in public places where bacteria would usually rapidly develop.
Excluding Polyrey Touch Range and Metal Laminates.
- Eliminates 99.9% of bacteria.
- Resistant to heat and domestic cleaning products (bleach etc), and easy to clean.
- Certified food-safe.
- Certified skin safe.
- Moisture resistant.
- Rot proof.
- Prevents the growth of mould and bacteria.
- Free from nanoparticles, the Ag+ ions integrated in the material are not soluble and present no danger for humans or the environment.
- Compliant with BPR and REACH standards.
