Laminate Supplier

Post-forming laminates are plastic laminates, typically made of polyester or vinyl. They are used to create countertops and cabinetry. Unlike conventional laminates, they are more flexible. In addition, they provide a smoother appearance.

Post-forming laminates Supplier provides Laminate in a variety of shapes and sizes. The thickness of the laminate plays a significant role in the formability of the structure. However, not all laminates can be post-formed. Various materials are used in the production of these laminates.

During the manufacturing process, the core paper of the laminate is fused with decorative paper. The laminates are then heated to soften the resins and achieve the desired forming temperature.

After forming, the laminate edges are rounded and bonded to the base substrate. This process ensures a neat finish. Typically, laminates are formed over plywood or particle board. However, a range of other substrates is also available. Depending on the customer's requirements, these laminates are then formed into a wide variety of profiles.

Some laminates, such as Stylam, have added flexibility and can be easily bent into convex or concave curves. This allows for more creative applications. Besides offering an attractive finish, post-formed laminates are easier to clean and maintain.

Another benefit of laminates with post-formed edges is that they have no seams. This is especially useful for countertop applications. Since there is no visible seam, the edge is clean and easy to wipe.
