What is HPL and Why Choose It?
HPL, or High-Pressure Laminate, is the perfect solution for those looking for beautiful and durable coverings.
HPL is made from layers of cellulose fibers impregnated with thermosetting resins, then subjected to high pressure and heat. This process results in a homogeneous, non-porous material with a flawless surface finish.
Benefits of using HPL
Choosing HPL from Plywood Express offers numerous advantages for your projects. This material is known for its extreme durability, resisting daily wear and maintaining its visual appeal.
Additionally, HPL is easy to clean, practical, and hygienic, featuring antibacterial protection. It’s a safe and efficient choice for any environment.
HPL Features
HPL’s exceptional features include resistance to wear, stains, non-abrasive household chemicals, and high temperatures. Its color stability and dimensional stability ensure the material won’t warp or fade over time, maintaining its original appearance.
