High Pressure Laminate

Additional Details

The name dekorial–starline stands for a High Pressure Laminate with a genuine aluminum surface. This surface is applied to a core of phenolic resin using high pressure. A highly resistant aluminum surface is obtained by electrical oxidization for mirror quality or by use of lacquer. As the anodized aluminum is an integral part of the surface layer it gives the product a permanent protection against “external” influences. A special heat-curing laker on the basis of an epoxied resin or a PU lacquer is also used in many cases as a protection for the metal surface. The aluminum layer can be delivered if required with a smooth, brushed or embossed surface. The typical metallic character is obtained by pressing in the original colors. A transparent coloration combined with a surface structure gives further openings for a decorative effect. A slight unevenness in the surface (with structures) and slight variations in shine of the aluminum surface laminates are one of the features of this product. The slight indentations are at the present stand of the technique and are unavoidable and normal. Slight color variations occur during the production process and are not detrimental to the overall appearance. Pure aluminum products are often pressed with a smooth surface. Other surface structures such as Honeycomb (WAF), Barleycorn (GEK) or Pinpoint (PNT) are available. For special effects a groove along or across the board with different embossing (603 – 610) on either side bring out the metallic character.

By using the grooved structure (see dekovario Prospectus) combined with the mirror-quality further variations are possible.
