DUROPAL WORKTOPS – HIGHLY RESISTANT TO ...

Melamine resin is the hardest of all synthetically produced organic materials. This is the reason for the high scratch and wear resistance of Duropal-HPL. The high impact resistance of the material is due to the elasticity of phenolic resin. These properties also explain the high resistance of HPL to chemicals and heat. Burning a cigarette on the surface of HPL is one of the quality tests specied in DIN-EN 438, which also determines all the other qualities important for the user. However, the bottoms of saucepans and ovenware can become extremely hot and Duropal recommend using a protective pad.

A little about Duropal:

Since 1958 Duropal has been a world leader in the manufacture of decorative high pressure laminates (HPL). Throughout the 1960’s Duropal was at the forefront of technological development in the industry including the first industrial scale application of urea resins for gluing HPL to chipboard; the recognised standard in use today. In 1969, the present day. Arnsberg site was acquired and developed. The reputation for creative innovation was reinforced throughout the 1970’s with the introduction of the 4.1 metre length press and new textures. Commitment to the UK market was secured by the opening of an office in Gerrards Cross in 1977. Innovation grew with new investment in the 1980’s through the acquisition of a majority shareholding by Pfleiderer The investment continued into the 1990’s with a new high capacity HPL press and the acquisition of the remaining shareholding of the original Duropal-Werk Eberhard Wrede GmbH & Co. KG by Pfleider then soon to become Pfleiderer AG

The pace of change continues in the current decade. A new continuously operating HPL press was commissioned in 2001 at the Arnsberg factory, and indeed further significant investment is currently being made with the addition of a second continuously operating HPL press. In July 2004 significant investment was made in new offices at Macclesfield in Cheshire, thereby providing for Duropal Pfleiderer continued commitment to serve and support the UK markets.

GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR PROCESSING DUROPAL WORKTOPS

Always use sharp tools.
Circular saw blades with flat chamfer teeth (FZ/FA) or alternating teeth (WZ) achieve best results.
Reduce the feed rate when cutting through the post-formed edge.
Spiral router cutters achieve best results.
For finishing edges with Duropal HPL edging strip, trim and finish with 300 grit sandpaper.

SURFACE TEXTURES

(BR) Brightstone - Fine gloss spots and a certain roughness of sandstone lives in the structure Brightstone. The texture is especially suitable for horizontal use in stone reproductions.

(CM) Supermatt - (CM) complements the extensive range of matt structures. Uniform and with a soft appearance, CM offers an even greater matt alternative to Semi Matt (SM / MS). Compared to Semi Matt, the puristice Supermatt has a reduced gloss level with a comparable soft, silky appearance.

(CR) Corrosio - The rough, lively material structure Corrosio looks like corroded metal. An overall matt effect broken up with sharp-edges, but also softer uneven areas, it is complemented by the shimmering silk-matt background. Directional yet universal, Corrosio can be used with almost all material and stone decors.

(FG) Fine Grain - Fine Grain has a fine texture and evokes an association with ceramics and stoneware. Wood becomes tangible, gets a softer feel and a natural impression. The visual matt appearance is supported by its tactile appeal.

(GR) Solid Granite - This rugged but uniform stone structure is impressive due to its great depth. Solid Granite (GR) is sharp and precise in every detail. Fine differences in height, subtle elevation breaks and the silky matt surface give an authentic and high quality impression. Classic fine structured stones, artificial stones and concrete can be impressively combined with Solid Granite.

(HS) Enhanced High Gloss - High Gloss: This sophisticated, well-proportioned high gloss texture gives the highest elegance to classic wood- or stone decors. The particularly high gloss level of this texture is in a class of its own. Enhanced High Gloss: High gloss with improved abrasion resistance in HPL (only for selected decors).

(MP) Miniperl - This classic, directionless pearl structure with a medium gloss level is particularly resistant to mechanical stress and can be used universally for numerous applications and with all decor types.

(MS) Enhanced Semi Matt - Semi Matt: As a classical, semi matt surface texture, this structure can be used universally. The name says it all: silky and pleasant to the touch. Enhanced Semi Matt: Matt structure with improved abrasion resistance for HPL.

(NY) Natural Wood - Naturalness and precision characterise this delicate wood structure. The fine surface texture looks freshly sanded. The pores appear irregular and linear. Their different depth and edge sharpness make them look extremely authentic. Natural Wood can be universally applied to many fine-pored woodgrains. It perfectly accentuates the Scandinavian style, but also exotic- or fruit woods are given a new feel with this structure.

(RT) Rustic Wood - The depth and expression of this structure give striped woodgrains a sporty look. The gloss-matt effect and the natural irregularity of the grain make woodgrains look very authentic.

(SD) Sandpearl - The sandy pearl structure is homogeneous and multi-directional, the fine grain is sharp-edged and precise. The both matt and delicate surface has a modern and well-balanced appearance. It can therefore be used universally for almost all decors.

(SX) Stucotex - This modern structure with numerous material properties is like a chameleon. The craftsmanship of the material is emphasised by the matt, rough feel; momentum and generosity caused by a subtle brush stroke, which gains depth by the glossiness.

(VV) Top Velvet - Top Velvet is a fine parchment structure and is universally applicable. The restrained gloss-matt effect and its discreet parchment gives class and elegance to all directionless decors.

(XM) XTreme Matt - XTreme Matt impresses with a surface of unprecedented colour transparency and depth – and a pleasantly warm, velvety soft feel. Although the matt, low-reflection surface looks particularly elegant, its texture is durable, resistant and easy to clean. The warm, “soft” surface invites you to touch it – and remains resistant to fingerprints or traces of grease.

(XP) XTreme plus - XTreme plus is an attractive matt surface with anti-fingerprint properties. XP impresses with its velvety soft feel and delicate appearance. The structure is extremely durable and easy to clean, making it perfect for horizontal, heavy duty applications.
