Features and benefits:
Further processing
Riga HPL can be further processed according to customer's specification with cut-to-size, CNC, drilling, milling, jointing, edge machining, and assembling in sets.
For applications where insulation and acoustic performance are required, perforated and grooved acoustic panels are possible.
Overlaying
CPL (continuous-pressure laminates) and HPL (high-pressure laminates) made of layers of kraft paper impregnated with resins (the core) and decorative melamine impregnated paper (the surface layer), manufactured under high pressure and temperature.
The CPL and HPL coating offers a highly durable, scratch resistant and decorative surface in different colours (uni, white, wood reproductions, material reproductions) and various surface structures. Standard CPL and HPL thickness 0.6–1 mm, protective foil is applied. Different surface properties can be achieved, depending on the CPL or HPL used.
