It works best as a surface cover for cabinets, tables, kitchen set, interior decor, etc. The rising cost and short supply of real wooden material, along with the growing demand of eco-friendly material has made HPL as one of the most popular finishing material for furniture product and interior decor. HPL’s advantages Various texture and pattern High Pressure Laminates Lower price than other type of finishing Ease of maintenance 1.Overlay Paper Waterproof 2.Pattern Paper Heat and scratch resistance Easy application 3.Kraft Paper Use and Care Guide Before selecting the surface material, consider the type of use it will receive, as well as its texture, color, and reflective value. Use cutting boards, chopping blocks or other protective surfaces. Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, sandpaper, or Scotch-Brite scouring pads. Do not use it as an iron board.
