HPL (High Pressure Laminate) is a high-performance decorative material made by a high-temperature and high-pressure process.Made from high-grade decorative paper, kraft paper, and processed by impregnation, drying, high temperature and high pressure. Its core structure is by multiple layers of resin-impregnated paper, which is compressed and cured, it has many physical properties and decorative effects, and is widely used in construction, furniture, and other fields. HPL, with its comprehensive advantages of fire resistance, durability, and aesthetics, has become an important choice for modern decorative materials.

As a high-performance fireproof board innovator, we make every inch of space a carrier of aesthetics. Changzhou Giovanni provides the cornerstone for designers to create without boundaries. With a diverse range of colors, textures, and performance, it has become the ideal choice for enterprises to create visually appealing, comfortable, and forward looking spaces.

Melamine Decorative High Pressure Laminates (HPL) are versatile surfacing materials designed to provide a perfect blend of aesthetic appeal and functional durability. Manufactured by pressing multiple layers of kraft paper and decorative paper impregnated with resins under high heat and pressure, Melamine HPL offers a hard, non-porous, and visually appealing surface suitable for a wide range of interior applications. These laminates are widely used in furniture, cabinets, wall panels, countertops, doors, and retail fixtures, providing both designers and homeowners with a cost-effective alternative to natural materials such as wood, stone, or veneer.

The structure of HPL

1.Surface: composed of decorative color paper impregnated with melamine resin, providing a rich variety of colors, textures (such as wood grain, stone grain), and surface effects (matte, high gloss, embossed).

2.Core layer: multi-layer impregnated phenolic resin paper, which is pressed at high temperature and high pressure to form a high-strength substrate, the board the characteristics of impact resistance and wear resistance.

3.Bottom layer: Decorative paper layer, used to stabilize the size of the board and prevent deformation.

4.Surface transparent layer: can effectively protect the base material, enhance surface performance, effectively resist external wear, stains and chemical corrosion, and keep the board clean a long time.

Different thickness differences:

Standard HPL: thickness 0.35-2mm, mainly used for wall, furniture veneer and other decorative scenarios.

Compact Laminate: Thickness 2-30mm, with higher density and greater strength, suitable for washroom partitions, outdoor wall panels and other scenarios with strict durability requirements.

Product Details

Melamine Decorative HPL consists of a core of kraft paper impregnated with phenolic resin for structural stability and impact resistance, topped with a decorative paper layer treated with melamine resin. This combination creates a durable, scratch-resistant surface with a variety of textures and patterns. Thicknesses generally range from 0.6mm to 1.2mm, making them suitable for horizontal and vertical applications. Available surface finishes include gloss, matte, textured, and embossed designs, which enhance both the tactile and visual quality of the laminate.

The decorative layer offers a wide range of designs, including solid colors, woodgrain patterns, stone effects, abstract textures, and metallic finishes, allowing creative freedom for both contemporary and traditional interior designs. Standard sheet sizes can be customized to meet project requirements, making Melamine HPL suitable for small-scale and large-scale applications alike.

Product Features

Durable Surface: Resistant to scratches, abrasions, and impacts, providing long-lasting performance in both residential and commercial environments.

Moisture and Heat Resistance: Non-porous surface protects underlying substrates from moisture and moderate heat exposure, suitable for kitchen counters and bathroom cabinetry.

Easy Maintenance: The smooth, sealed surface prevents dirt and bacteria accumulation, allowing effortless cleaning with minimal upkeep.

Wide Design Variety: Available in numerous colors, patterns, and textures, enabling diverse aesthetic applications from modern minimalism to classic elegance.

Lightweight and Easy to Install: Simple to cut, shape, and adhere to different substrates like MDF, plywood, or particleboard.

Eco-Friendly Manufacturing: Produced using environmentally responsible materials and low-emission resins that comply with international standards.

Product Advantages

Melamine Decorative HPL offers significant advantages over traditional surfacing materials. Compared with natural wood, it does not warp, fade, or require extensive maintenance. Unlike stone or solid surface materials, it is lightweight, cost-effective, and easier to fabricate and install. Its resistance to scratches, stains, and moisture makes it particularly suitable for high-traffic and high-use areas such as kitchens, offices, schools, and retail spaces.

Additionally, Melamine HPL ensures consistent quality and appearance across large-scale projects, eliminating issues like color variation or surface defects commonly found in natural materials. The material’s versatility also allows for creative applications, including laminated furniture panels, wall cladding, decorative partitions, and custom cabinetry designs.

Application scenarios

1.Architectural decoration:

The overall decoration of public spaces such as walls, partitions, hotels, shopping malls, and schools.

Facade cladding: UV-resistant HPL for exterior building facades, combining decoration and protection.

2.Furniture manufacturing;:

Cabinet, wardrobe, desktop: Its moisture-resistant and easy-to-clean properties make it a preferred choice for kitchen and bathroom furniture

Office furniture: wear-resistant and impact-resistant performance suitable for high-frequency office environment.

3.Traffic and industry:

Interior of the car: lightweight design meets the automotive industry's environmental and safety needs.

Vessels, high-speed trains: fire and moisture resistance meet the strict standards of transportation.

4.Other filed:

Laboratory bench top: chemical corrosion resistance performance to protect experimental equipment and personnel safety.

Anti-static flooring: HPL flooring used in machine rooms and data centers can effectively release static electricity.

Industry standards and certifications

1.Fire protection standard:

Domestic: GB8624-2012 "Building Material Fire Performance Grading" (B1/A2 grade)

International: ISO 4586 series standards (Specifications for high pressure decorative laminates).

Core advantages

1.Wear and scratch resistance: The surface has been specially treated with excellent wear resistance. It is difficult to leave obvious traces on the surface during daily use, it can maintain beauty for a long time.

2.Chemical resistance: It can be applied to chemical laboratories, hospitals and other places, and has strong resistance to acid and alkali chemical substances.

3.Fireproof performance: It has good flame retardant performance, will not burn when exposed to fire source, can effectively resist the spread of fire, will not produce toxic gas smoke, in line with national fire standards.

4.Vibrant colors, versatile style: Hundreds of patterns to choose from, including natural wood grain, stone texture, fabric pattern, metallic feel and solid color easily matching various design styles such as modern simplicity, natural luxury and industrial style.

5.Durable and easy to clean, easy maintenance: HPL surface is smooth and dense, matched with a transparent and stain-resistant protective layer, making it difficult for water stains and soap scum to penetrate. Cleaning only requires a damp cloth wipe, and stubborn stains can be easily removed with neutral cleaners or alcohol, effectively reducing the cost of cleaning and maintenance of the bathroom.

6.Environmental performance: excellent environmental performance, made of environmentally friendly resin and wood fiber by high temperature pressing, no formaldehyde release, more in line the national green building materials requirements, to provide consumers with a healthy and comfortable living environment.
