The Chemical Resistant Board Worktop is a premium, high-performance surface material designed specifically for laboratory, industrial, and educational environments where resistance to harsh chemicals, heat, and mechanical wear is essential. Engineered for durability, safety, and functionality, this worktop provides a long-lasting solution for spaces exposed to demanding conditions such as research laboratories, hospitals, pharmaceutical facilities, and testing centers. Its superior resistance properties and smooth, hygienic surface make it the preferred choice for modern laboratory workstations and countertops.

Compact Laminate

Compact Laminate is a thickened double-faced decorative plate with fire resistance, which is made of special resin and a variety of special papers through high temperature high pressure. Due to its dense density and a variety of changes in color texture and surface treatment, it is suitable for load-bearing countertops, and is also widely used for walls, bathroom partitions, dressing room partitions, space area segmentation, storage cabinets and various countertops, etc.

Ingenuity material

1.Basic composition

Compact Laminate is made by impregnating decorative color paper with melamine resin and the bottom layer of multi-layer cowhide paper with phenolic resin, and then pressing it at high temperature and pressure of 150℃. Its density is far beyond that of ordinary boards, with a cross section of black and texture, and has an integrated colored resin surface.

2.Aesthetic expression: co-evolution of function and design

The high temperature and high pressure process allows the resin to fully penetrate the fibers, forming an irreversible chemical cross-linked structure, which gives the board high and deformation resistance properties. Compared with the second-generation compact laminate (wood fiber+glue pressing), the first-generation compact laminate has higher density, no formaldehyde release, smooth cross section and stronger weather resistance.

Interpret the quality from four dimensions

1.Physical performance

Impact resistance and wear resistance: The high-density structure allows it to withstand daily impacts. The check-in island at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport uses a 8mm compact laminate countertop, serving tens of thousands of people daily, with no significant wear in 5 years.

weather resistance: Waterproof and moisture-proof: extremely low water absorption rate, can be directly used in damp environments (such as bathrooms, outdoors), no deformation or mild after long-term immersion.

Fire prevention safety: Fireproof flame retardant: fire resistance grade B1 (non-combustible material), does not melt or drip in the presence of an open, in accordance with EU fire standards.

2.Chemical performance

Chemical resistance: can resist strong acids and alkalis (such as commonly used reagents in the laboratory), suitable for special environments such as chemical industry medical treatment.

Antibacterial and easy to clean: the surface is smooth and dense, and has passed the TESTING CANASL5413 and ISO antibacterial, the antibacterial rate can reach 99.8% for Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, etc., and can be directly with organic solvents.

3.For humid environment

Waterproof and moisture-proof: Compact Laminate is made of special resin and high-performance paper through high temperature and high pressure molding, with dense structure, extremely low water absorption rate. It does not expand, deform, or crack even if it is in a high humidity environment for a long time. 

Product Details

The Chemical Resistant Board Worktop is constructed from multiple layers of high-quality kraft paper impregnated with phenolic resin, topped with a specially formulated chemical-resistant decorative layer. This composite is then compressed under high temperature and pressure to create a dense, solid, and non-porous surface that is both aesthetically refined and technically robust.

Standard thicknesses range from 12mm to 25mm, with customized sizes available to meet specific design or installation requirements. The surface can be finished in matte, textured, or satin styles, ensuring both functional and visual appeal. Available in a variety of colors—most commonly black, gray, or graphite—the worktop complements a wide range of laboratory interiors. Each panel is precision-cut and edge-sealed for maximum protection against liquid penetration and mechanical damage.

Product Features

Exceptional Chemical Resistance: The surface withstands prolonged exposure to a wide variety of acids, alkalis, and solvents without degradation or discoloration.

High Temperature Tolerance: Capable of withstanding brief contact with high temperatures and hot equipment, ensuring long-term stability under extreme lab conditions.

Impact and Scratch Resistance: The dense core structure offers excellent strength, durability, and resistance to daily wear, ensuring a long service life.

Waterproof and Non-Porous: The sealed surface prevents absorption of liquids and moisture, reducing the risk of swelling or bacterial contamination.

Easy to Clean and Maintain: Resistant to stains, scratches, and microbial growth; can be cleaned effortlessly with standard detergents or disinfectants.

Hygienic and Safe: The smooth, non-porous finish supports sterile work environments and meets stringent laboratory hygiene standards.

Design Flexibility: Available in various thicknesses, sizes, and finishes to suit specific laboratory designs and applications.

Eco-Friendly Production: Manufactured using low-emission resins and recyclable materials, contributing to sustainable building standards.

Product Advantages

The Chemical Resistant Board Worktop combines robust functionality with refined design, providing a superior alternative to traditional laboratory surfaces such as epoxy resin, stainless steel, or ceramic tiles. Its chemical-resistant composition ensures that it remains unaffected by frequent exposure to corrosive substances—making it ideal for wet labs, fume hood surfaces, and analytical benches.

The worktop’s mechanical strength and dimensional stability allow it to support heavy laboratory instruments and equipment without deformation or delamination. Unlike other materials, it maintains its integrity even under intense operational stress, ensuring consistent performance over many years.

Maintenance is minimal—its smooth, sealed surface resists stains, preventing costly downtime associated with cleaning or repairs. The elegant matte finish also enhances laboratory aesthetics, creating a professional, modern environment that reflects precision and cleanliness.

Additionally, installation is straightforward and efficient, compatible with various support structures and fitting systems. Its lightweight nature compared to stone or steel reduces handling difficulty while maintaining exceptional strength and rigidity.
