Product Details, Specifications, and Technical Information

What is Melamine?

Melamine, also known as thermally fused laminate, is manufactured in a one step process when top and bottom impregnated decorative layers are pressed and permanently thermofused to MDF. Large steel press plates are used during this process to create the surface texture. The finished panels are ready for use.

Melamine is scratch, heat and water resistant.

Our Black Melamine has a wood-based MDF core manufactured using 100% recycled and recovered wood materials. The melamine resins used to bond the black decorative paper and panel together produce a durable, hard, smooth and color stable product.
