HPL (High Pressure Laminate) panels represent man-made finishing material, which is manufactured by pressing in a hydraulic press and
consists of sheets of cellulose impregnated with thermosetting resins. In process of pressing, at temperature of 150 С and pressure of 9
MPa, resin polymerization occurs with formation of irreversible connections, which ensures homogeneity and high density of material. Layer
of texture and colour is applied to a front surface.
For the Russian façade market, the material is niche, volumes of installation are rather low as compared to other façade materials. It is
mainly used for finishing of facades of trading centers, food service companies and low-rise construction.
Material is manufactured in a form of fat boards with dimensions of 4200 x 2000 mm and thickness of 2 to 30 mm.
Innovative production processes allow that any type of surface finishing is made, from matte to enamel and to structured surfaces. Material
features a wide range of textures and colours, and permits to mimic virtually all types of materials. Both open and closed methods of
installation of boards on a façade system are used.
