Description

Riga Rhomb is designed for technically demanding applications, where high wear resistance and good anti-slip properties are required.

Features and benefits:

Highly wear-resistant and anti-slip surface ensuring safety underfoot.
Weather-resistant gluing and water-resistant surface.
Excellent strength-to-weight ratio.
Durable and heavy-duty.
Surface is resistant to commonly used chemicals and surface impact, easy to clean.
Aesthetic and visually attractive.
Sustainable product with a long life span.

Further processing:

Riga Rhomb can be further processed according to customer's specification with cut-to-size, CNC, drilling, milling, jointing, edge machining, assembling in sets.

Surface properties:

The rhomboid pattern overlay improves panel resistance against mechanical damage and wear, whilst providing a decorative appearance. The surface resists abrasion, and commonly used chemicals, and is weather and moisture resistant. Rhomb Heavy with a wear resistant film significantly improves abrasion resistance. Riga Wood experts will advise the most appropriate overlay depending on the end use.

Overlaying

Overlaid with resin impregnated film, during the coating process a special rhomb pattern is hot-pressed onto the sheet surface. Depending on the application, films impregnated with unmodified or modified phenolic or melamine resins are applied.

Wear resistance

Rolling test (EN 1818) more than 10,000 cycles depending on the coating. Rolling wear is tested with a load of 300 kg.

Taber test (EN 438-2) for Riga Rhomb is up to 900 revolutions, for Riga Rhomb Heavy is up to 10,000 revolutions.

Slip resistance

Anti-slip resistance class R10 according to DIN 51130.
